Can we use a short code instead of a phone number?

Written by Jenny

The benefit of short codes is that they are built more for mass marketing and promotional messages. Textline does not supply short codes. However, we can text-enable a short code that you already own. A dedicated short code will generally cost between $1,000 and $1,500 per month. If you want to use a short code, text us at (415) 849-4349 to discuss.

You can also acquire a short code from Twilio and set up Textline to use the API credentials provided by Twilio for your shortcode. Details on setting up a Twilio number can be found here. You can also reach out to Textline for more information.
