Carriers’ A2P 10DLC offerings provide better delivery quality and lower filtering risk than long code SMS of the past, using the same phone numbers.

You need to set up webhooks in order to receive sms replies

If you would like Check Cherry to log incoming messages and notify you upon receipt, you must configure a "Messaging Webhook" on your phone number. To do that, enter the following settings:

  • Under "A Message Comes In", choose "Webhook"
  • For the URL enter https://yourcompanyurl.checkcherry.com/webhooks/twilio/message_received
  • Make sure HTTP POST is selected
Note that if you are already using other software to handle your incoming SMS messages, these settings may cause that to stop working.
