Register the newly created Business Profile for A2P 10DLC capabilities by creating a US A2P brand. This will register the business for US A2P10DLC capabilities. This is required for both a Sole Prop and an EIN. To start a registration, navigate to the Trust Center on the Phone number section, under the Settings category, and hit “Start Registration”;
Determine A2P Brand Needs:
- If the business has a Tax Number (EIN for the US, CCN for Canada, etc.), Please select "Yes, the business I’m registering has a US EIN" (Standard Low Volume Brand Registration).
- If the business does not have a Tax Number but operates from a valid Business Address in the US/Canada, Please select "No, the business I’m registering does not have a US EIN" (Sole Prop Brand Registration).
- If the business does not have a Tax ID and the business address is not in the US/Canada, unfortunately, they cannot proceed with A2P Brand Registration. In this case, the best alternative would be to use Toll-Free numbers after completing the registration process.
- Click Next.
