What website does Zoom Phone need for 10DLC SMS registration?

Quick answer

Zoom Phone needs a valid, secure, working website on your brand, a privacy policy URL on that site, and a screenshot of the policy section saying you do not share customer mobile numbers. Any web form that collects phone numbers needs an SMS disclosure. Each sample message must end with Reply with STOP to cancel.

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.

Which registration does Zoom Phone use, and who submits it?

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.

Where do the website URLs go in Zoom's registration?

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:

  1. Create a brand with your legal name, DBA, legal form, EIN, address and website.
  2. Wait for brand approval (Zoom says usually 1 to 2 hours).
  3. Create a campaign: name, description, consent method, content questions, and samples.
  4. Add up to five sample messages. Each names your brand and ends with the STOP line Zoom requires.
  5. Add the opt-out and help details, including a website or support number.
  6. Submit, then assign phone numbers once the campaign is approved.

What does Zoom check on your website?

Zoom's compliance article and technical library point to these checks:

  • The site works and is secure. A valid https website that belongs to the brand.
  • A privacy policy about texting. It should address text messaging and say you do not share or sell customer mobile information. Zoom says the policy should be linked from your homepage.
  • An SMS disclosure on every web form that collects phone numbers. Zoom lists a missing form disclosure as a rejection reason.
  • Consistent brand name. Your brand name should show in samples and on the site.

Why was my Zoom Phone SMS registration rejected?

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.

How long does review take, and what does it cost?

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.

Zoom Phone gotchas

  • Brands cannot be edited. Zoom's technical library says you must delete and resubmit a brand to change it. Get your legal name and EIN right the first time.
  • Pending campaigns are locked. Only active or rejected campaigns can be edited and resubmitted.
  • Sole proprietors get one number. Zoom requires a US or Canada wireless number for a passcode check and allows only one phone number on a sole proprietor campaign. See sole proprietor brand.
  • Public companies need extra verification. Zoom says the Public Profit legal form goes through an added authentication step.
  • Every sample needs the STOP line. Zoom says a sample without it will be rejected.

How do I get a website that passes Zoom review?

  1. The site is live, https, and shows your brand name. See brand name match and SSL and HTTPS.
  2. It shows your services and contact details. See business contact info and content pages.
  3. The privacy policy is linked from the homepage and has a clear no-sharing line you can screenshot. See privacy policy.
  4. SMS terms cover frequency, rates, STOP and HELP. See SMS terms.
  5. Every form that asks for a phone number has an SMS disclosure and an unchecked box. See opt-in form.
  6. It is not parked or "coming soon." See no parked sites.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I register for SMS in Zoom Phone?

In the Zoom web portal, under SMS campaigns, as an account owner or admin with SMS Campaign privileges. You create a 10DLC brand first. After the brand is approved, you create a campaign and then assign phone numbers to it.

Does Zoom need a screenshot of my privacy policy?

Yes. Zoom's 10DLC compliance article asks you to upload a screenshot of the section of your privacy policy that says you do not share customer mobile phone numbers with third parties. It also asks for the privacy policy URL on your brand website.

How much does Zoom Phone 10DLC registration cost?

At the time of writing, Zoom says the first brand and the first low-volume campaign are free. High-volume campaigns are $10 per campaign per month, and additional brands are listed at $5 per brand per month. Check Zoom's current article before you register.

How long does Zoom Phone campaign approval take?

Zoom says brand approval is usually 1 to 2 hours. It tells customers to allow a minimum of four weeks for the full process, including carrier review. After four weeks pending, you can ask Zoom Support for a campaign nudge.

Can I edit my Zoom brand after I submit it?

No, according to Zoom's technical library. Brands cannot be edited after submission, so you must delete the brand and submit it again. Campaigns can be edited only when they are active or rejected, then resubmitted.

Why do Zoom campaigns get rejected one reason at a time?

Zoom's FAQ says carriers review about 20 fields and rejections come one after another because fields depend on each other. Fixing one issue may reveal the next. Getting the whole website right before you submit saves rounds.

Can I use a social media page instead of a website for Zoom?

Zoom's FAQ says small businesses without a website may use a business social media page with an uploaded PDF privacy policy. Personal accounts are not accepted. A real website is still the clearest way to show reviewers your business.
