Resp Orgs Begin Receiving Notifications of Text Enabled Toll-Free Numbers

Beginning today, Responsible Organizations (Resp Orgs) of record are receiving notifications regarding requests to text enable their Toll-Free Numbers.

This is the first step in the Beta launch of the Texting & Smart Services (TSS) Registry, which Somos began working on in late 2014. The TSS Registry will serve as the authoritative provisioning and routing database for all multimedia services associated with Toll-Free Numbers. While the registry initially will only support texting, over time it will expand to include MMS, video calling and other services.

Resp Orgs will be able to review, approve, or reject pending text enablement requests. In order to take action on these requests, Resp Orgs must create an account in the TSS Registry.

For more information about the TSS Registry and the text enablement of Toll-Free Numbers, please see From Talk to Text Part 1 and From Talk to Text Part 2 blog articles.
