MyTCRPlus Issues 10DLC SMS Compliance Guide for Auto Repair Shops

eTradeWire News/10852401
The 10DLC SMS compliance guide for auto repair shops from MyTCRPlus covers vehicle-ready notifications, appointment reminders, promotional consent rules, brand registration, and shop-management software paths.

ADDISON, Texas - eTradeWire -- MyTCRPlus, the leading independent 10DLC diagnostic platform, has issued a 10DLC SMS compliance guide for auto repair shops. Titled "10DLC for Mechanics: SMS Compliance and Registration for Auto Repair Shops," it walks shops through A2P 10DLC registration for customer texts sent through shop management software, a CRM, or a messaging application.

The guide states that 10DLC covers every customer text sent from a business number through software. Vehicle-ready notifications are the highest-value texts in auto repair. Shops sending those messages without registration send unregistered A2P traffic that carriers can block. The requirement is triggered by the sending method, not by volume, so one-bay shops and large departments both need registration.

Vehicle-ready notifications and appointment reminders register as Account Notifications. Two-way reminders that  solicit a response may qualify under Customer Care. Promotional messages (tire deals, oil change coupons, referral incentives) require a separate Marketing campaign with prior express written consent. Drop-off consent for status updates does not cover promotional offers.

Brand registration requires legal name matching IRS records, an EIN or sole-proprietor SSN path, a website with SMS disclosure and privacy language, address, contact email, and the Automotive industry vertical. A Google Business Profile does not satisfy The Campaign Registry website requirement. Shops often send SMS through Mitchell 1, Shop-Ware, Tekmetric, or Bay-Master; some vendors cover registration, while others require registration through the SMS API provider.

MyTCRPlus is not a CSP and does not send SMS.
