10 Digit Long Code (10DLC)
10DLC stands for ’10 digit long code’; it enables the use of local long codes that were previously reserved only for P2P traffic, to be used for clean, opted-in SMS campaign traffic.
Each provisioned 10DLC number has a daily throughput of around 2000 SMS per day. The key benefits of 10DLC are that it’s the cheapest solution on the market, and you get to use a local trusted Sender ID. The approval process takes between 2 – 7 business days.
Key Benefits
- Most Cost Effective Option
- Trusted Local Sender ID
- Quick approval process

Short Code
In the United States, a short code refers to a dedicated 5 or 6-digit sender ID specifically assigned to a particular brand for a designated purpose or campaign.
Short codes are the most premium SMS service in the USA, incorporating handset Delivery Receipts (DLR) and undergoing a rigorous vetting process. To obtain approval for one of these codes, there are several requirements that must be met, and the entire process typically takes about 1-2 months for full approval.
Key Benefits
- Most Trusted Sender ID Format
- Handset Delivery Receipts
