Twilio Messaging - Advisory Alert] AT&T U.S. 10-digit Long Code Fee - whmcsservices - 01-30-2021
Carriers in the U.S. have been working on adding new 10-digit long code products and guidelines to better accommodate application-to-person (A2P) traffic, such as messages sent via Twilio. As of March 1, 2021, AT&T’s 10-digit Long Code route will launch. With this change, there will be an additional $0.004 carrier fee per outbound SMS message segment and $0.005 per outbound MMS message segment to AT&T users. Twilio will pass this fee through directly to you at no markup.
What do you need to do?
There is no action you need to take right now, and there will be no impact to your message traffic on March 1 other than the carrier fee.
If you are a business that is planning to scale up your messaging strategy, you need to review and understand registration requirements for businesses on this new A2P 10DLC service.
