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.
Daily limit: 2,000 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.
