This page is for Zoom Phone and Zoom Contact Center admins setting up business texting in the US. Zoom sends SMS from local 10-digit numbers, so every account registers a brand and a campaign that carriers review. Zoom's own docs list the website problems that most often cause a rejection.
10DLC Site is not affiliated with or endorsed by Zoom. Provider names are used only to describe where information goes. This page describes the flow as documented at the time of writing (Updated September 2026). Screens change, so follow what you see in your account.
Zoom Phone uses A2P 10DLC registration. You submit it yourself in the Zoom web portal under SMS campaigns. Zoom says you need a Pro, Business, Enterprise or Education account with Zoom Phone licenses, and the account owner or an admin with SMS Campaign privileges.
The Campaign Registry (TCR) and carriers do the vetting. Zoom's FAQ is clear that Zoom facilitates the process but does not approve campaigns. Toll-free numbers are handled by a separate toll-free verification process.
| Item | Where it goes in Zoom |
|---|---|
| Business website | Brand form, Website field. Zoom asks for a valid, secure, working site, entered with https://. |
| Privacy policy URL | Campaign form. Zoom asks for a link to the privacy policy section of your brand website. |
| Screenshot of privacy policy | Campaign form, upload (JPG or PNG, up to 10 MB). Show the part that says you do not share customer mobile numbers. |
| Opt-in page | Campaign form, consent gathering method. Choose Website, enter the URL, and describe how visitors opt in. |
| Proof of web or written forms | Uploaded as images, per Zoom's technical library. |
The flow, based on Zoom's docs:
Zoom's compliance article and technical library point to these checks:
Zoom does not publish numbered codes in the articles we reviewed. It does list common reasons. Here they are, paraphrased, with the page that explains each fix.
| Zoom rejection reason (paraphrased) | Fix page |
|---|---|
| Privacy policy says you share or sell consumer data | Privacy policy missing SMS language |
| Privacy policy URL not accessible or not verified | Website not accessible |
| No privacy policy or SMS disclosure on the website | Privacy policy |
| Website form lacks SMS disclosure statements | Opt-in form |
| Call-to-action or opt-in details are not clear enough | Opt-in not verifiable |
| Samples lack Reply with STOP to cancel, or lack your brand name | Sample messages mismatch |
| Campaign description is too thin | Campaign rejected: next steps |
| Missing or invalid tax ID | Brand and EIN mismatch |
| Lending business not disclosed in the carrier questions | Campaign rejected: next steps |
Zoom's FAQ warns that rejections tend to arrive one at a time. Carriers review about 20 fields, and fixing one can reveal the next. That is a strong reason to check your whole site before the first submission.
Zoom says brand approval is usually 1 to 2 hours and campaign approval takes 1 to 2 weeks due to carrier backlog. It also tells customers to allow a minimum of four weeks for the whole process. Number pools of 50 or more numbers can take up to four weeks. If a campaign is pending more than four weeks, Zoom says to contact Support for a campaign nudge.
At the time of writing, Zoom lists these fees:
| Item | Listed fee |
|---|---|
| First brand | Free |
| Additional brands | $5 per brand per month (through Zoom Support) |
| First low-volume campaign | Free (limited throughput) |
| High-volume campaigns | $10 per campaign per month |
Zoom's articles do not list a separate resubmission fee. Check Zoom's current article for amounts.

10DLC Site builds these pages and gives you the exact URLs. You still submit the registration yourself, and carriers make the final decision. For other providers, see the any-provider guide.
