What number will my recipients see when I send them a text?

When you send text messages through CallingPost, the number that appears to your recipients will depend on the type of number being used for sending:

  • Short Codes: For certain interactions, like when a recipient texts a keyword to join a group, CallingPost uses a short code. This number is 24251.

  • Custom Toll-Free Numbers: If you are sending general text messages and have selected your custom toll-free number, that number will be the one that appears to your recipients.

Important Considerations:

  • Validation: Custom toll-free numbers require validation to ensure proper usage and compliance with regulations.

  • Best Practices: Using a consistent sending number (especially a custom toll-free number) can help your recipients recognize your messages and build trust.
