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.
