FAQs

What is A2P 10DLC?

A2P 10DLC is a trust mechanism that leading U.S. mobile carriers put forth to protect their mobile users from spam and unsolicited messages. With A2P 10DLC, mobile carriers are providing mobile customers the assurance that the text messages they receive from their friends, family, and now businesses, are trust-worthy and free of spam or communications from companies they have not given their consent to. Check out our blog to learn more.

Why do I need to provide an EIN number for my account creation?

We need your Employer Identification Number (EIN) to register you as a legitimate business entity in the Campaign Registry (TCR). Please note that this number is not your Social Security Number (SSN) / Social Insurance Number (SIN). Cloudli cannot use a SSN or SIN to register you for TCR.

What is The Campaign Registry (TCR)?

The Campaign Registry ensures text messaging Campaigns are legitimate by providing visibility into a brand’s messaging source and content to mobile carriers. Our team registers your company “campaign” by declaring “who” is sending the campaign, and “what” type of message is being sent. Once The Campaign Registry approves your registration, your company and brand(s) can begin sending trust-worthy messages in a sanctioned environment. Check out The Campaign Registry’s website for more information.

Do you support Bluetooth?

Yes, you can use your Bluetooth device and headset with the TalkNText app by pairing the devices to your smartphone, tablet, or desktop.

Do you support multiple languages?

Our interface supports English for now, with more languages coming in the future.

Can you keep your current provider for voice and use TalkNText for texting only?

Absolutely! By text-enabling your landline, you can take advantage of TalkNText’s powerful SMS and broadcasting features, while continuing to handle calls via your existing voice service.

How long of a commitment is a TalkNText subscription?

There are no contracts, and we don’t lock you in to any long-term commitment. The TalkNText subscriptions are month to month so you’re free to go whenever you feel the need to… but we’re sure you’ll stay with us.

Can you keep your current phone number when using TalkNText?

Yes, you can keep your current phone number by porting it over to us. What this means is that you’ll be able to keep the same phone number with your voice and Business Texting service on TalkNText, and these services will no longer work with your current provider.

Can you text-enable a 1-800 number?

Yes, you can. You’ll need to submit that number to our support team so they can text-enable it. Note that if you want to make and receive calls with TalkNText with that 1-800 number, you’ll need to port it over to us as well.

Is TalkNText 10DLC compliant?

You bet it is! Our team works tirelessly to register TalkNText users quickly to The Campaign Registry so they can start Business Texting per 10DLC requirements and run texting campaigns with total peace of mind.

Are there fees associated to porting a number?

There are no one-time fees associated to porting a number to TalkNText. Every plan includes one business phone number, and any additional phone number added to a subscription is an extra $5/month.

How many phone numbers are included with TalkNText?

Every TalkNText subscription includes one business phone number. You can add more phone numbers as needed for $5/month per additional phone number, whether it’s a standard or a toll-free number.

Does TalkNText replace my physical landline?

It certainly can! If you have a number that everyone knows and you’d like to keep, you can port your number to us. You can then use the TalkNText app on your smartphone, laptop, desktop or tablet to make/receive calls and text. If you’d rather keep your existing landline voice service, you can simply text-enable your landline instead.

Can I have the app on my phone and on my computer?

You can download the app and install it on all your devices! TalkNText is supported on iOS, Android, MacOS and PC.

Does each user require a different phone number for TalkNText?

The beauty of TalkNText is that you can share your phone number with as many TalkNText users as you have on your subscription! You can control who has access to it, and you can also revoke their access when needed. A shared business number allows you and everyone who has access to the phone number to answer calls and address text messages. It’s a perfect way for sharing the workload, staying on top of your game, and providing an enhanced customer experience.

Is there a plan with unlimited users?

Every plan includes a set number of included users, and you can add more users whenever you need for $10/month.

How can I add my business contacts to TalkNText?

You can add one contact at a time or mass upload your contacts as a CSV file via the Contacts tab in the TalkNText portal.

Is there a way to sync all my customers to a cloud software, like a CRM?

We currently offer the ability to export your TalkNText contacts as a CSV file for you to manage as you wish. However, TalkNText widgets are on the roadmap, so stay tuned for this feature in the near future!

I need technical support, how can I get help?

Our team is here for you! You can open a support ticket via the TalkNText admin portal, under the Support tab. Our bilingual team speaks English and French and operates from Monday to Friday, 8am to 8pm Eastern time.
