# How To Increase Message Deliverability

One of the best ways to ensure Messaging deliverability is high, is by verifying your toll-free number. Messaging platforms often change the message volumes which can be sent over an unverified Toll-Free number, and therefore, verification for all Toll-Free numbers is essential as well as aligning sender visibility with the 10DLC messaging standards.

**If you’ve already verified your Toll-Free numbers, no further action is needed.**

If you have not verified your Toll-Free numbers, please submit your numbers for verification. If you have multiple numbers, please submit Toll-Free numbers that send the most volume first.

Follow these steps to submit your number(s) for verification:

**Step 1:**  Go to the Toll-Free Registration page by navigating to Settings > Phone Number.

**Step 2:** Fill out the form on this page, in its entirety. Any missing information may lead to delays. Once  you submit the form, a support ticket will be created.

**Step 3:** Now that you have submitted your form, your number will be in a “Pending” stage. You will be able to use your number without the daily, weekly, and monthly limits you had before. Verification may take 2-3 weeks.

* As of October 1, 2022, the following industry-wide thresholds for messaging sent over unverified Toll-Free numbers are as follows:
* Daily limit: 2,000 messages
* Weekly limit: 12,000 messages
* Monthly limit\*\*:\*\* 25,000 messages

*(These thresholds are subject to change)*

***NOTE:*** These limits aren’t applicable when a Toll-Free number has been submitted for verification and is waiting to be, or is already, verified. Registration is still required for all Toll-Free numbers when sending messages to Canada.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://software-help-docs.gitbook.io/knowledge-base/software-guide/phone/how-to-increase-message-deliverability.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
