Text-Enabled Toll-Free Verification Process

Prev Next

IMPORTANT: As of January 2026, a BRN (Business Registration Number) is required for all new Toll-Free verification.

Due to modern industry standards, Flowroute customers are now required to have all text-enabled (SMS) toll-free numbers verified. Verification will permit text-enabled toll-free numbers to continue using the Messaging service without any interruptions. This verification will not add any cost to your current or future messaging enablement.        

What Happens to Your Current Toll-Free Messaging Service

NOTE: Toll-free numbers are considered “pending” when submitted through the Toll-Free Verification process until they have been verified.

The Toll-Free Verification process ensures that services running on TFNs comply with carrier policies and industry best practices. Verification also provides the toll-free messaging aggregator with relevant service information to reduce the likelihood of false positive filtering and wrongful spam blocks.

NOTE: To ensure the quickest turnaround time, we recommend completing and submitting the form as soon as possible.

NOTE: For account users with sub accounts, we suggest filling out verification forms on a per-end-user basis to prevent one failed validation from invalidating additional DIDs in the same submitted request.
