What is the meaning of DLT Registration in India?
DLT or Distributed Ledger Technology registration is the process of registering your business, message templates, sender IDs, and other required information on a DLT platform.
To register with a DLT platform you must provide the required information, such as business name, contact information, address, and the purpose of your SMS campaigns. Once registered, you will be given a unique identifier that you can use when sending SMS messages for your business.
Customers receiving these messages can also opt out of receiving SMS messages from certain businesses. To do this, they can text “STOP” to the SMS that they receive from the business.
What is the DLT Registration Process?
The complete DLT registration process comprises three steps in the following order:
- Principal Entity Registration
- SMS Header or Sender ID Registration
- Template Registration
Step 1: Principal Entity Registration
A Principal Entity can be a legal entity, individual, or business that wants to send SMS in bulk.
A commercial business (company or individual) dealing with products and/or services needs to register as an Enterprise or Principal Entity. A Telemarketer who collects SMS or voice traffic from other businesses needs to register themselves as a Telemarketer.
Step 2: SMS Header or Sender ID Registration
A Header or Sender ID is a unique ID assigned to a business, an individual, or a legal entity for sending commercial communication. It represents the brand or name of the company of the message sender. It contains an alphanumeric string of a maximum of 11 characters and/or numbers.
Step 3: Template Registration
This is the most important step in the registration process, as here the operator will either approve or reject your SMS template.
