COMMON QUESTIONS
Clear answers before the sender decision
Carrier and ecosystem requirements change. These answers explain the operating model without turning an estimate into a guarantee.
Can a toll-free number send both SMS and MMS?+
Support depends on the route and configuration. Confirm SMS, MMS, inbound messaging, and throughput for the specific number before launch.
Can an existing toll-free number be text-enabled?+
Often an eligible number can be reviewed for text enablement while retaining voice use, but ownership and provider configuration must be confirmed.
