Dedicated numbers
A dedicated number is yours alone — bought through ClickSend, used only by your business. Exactly which types you can get depends on your country.
Buying one
Log in to your ClickSend dashboard, go to Sender IDs, and select Buy a Number.
Types of dedicated numbers
All regions
Most regions around the world have their own dedicated number, ready to buy from the Buy a Number page.
Shortcodes (SC) — short, easy-to-remember numbers built for high-volume sending.
Long codes (LVN or LC) — standard-length numbers for everyday two-way conversations.
If there's nothing available to buy right away for your region, get in touch with our support team — they'll sort you out.
US-specific
10DLC and TFN — built specifically for sending to US numbers.
How it works
Two-way, always. Customers can reply, and you'll see it.
Yours alone. No other business sends from your number.
Limits vary by type. How many messages you can send per blast depends on the number type you choose.
Some need approval first. Certain types require registration or carrier sign-off before you're fully live.
When to use one
You want customer support or high-value, personal conversations — not a broadcast.
Your campaign needs guaranteed inbound delivery, so replies never get lost.
