# 30471: Toll Free verification rejection - High Risk - Non-secured URL in sample message

Log Type: APPLICATION

Log Level: ERROR

## Description

The Toll-Free phone number verification submission has been reviewed and it was rejected. Effective Jan 31st, 2024, messaging traffic on this Toll-Free number is blocked until it's verified.

Verification is one component of ensuring A2P SMS is used by businesses in a legal and compliant manner. The review process looks at the business sending messaging (not the software powering it), the use case, sample content, the web presence, the opt-in/consent collected and associated website terms and privacy policies.

### Possible causes

Toll-Free phone number cannot be verified because the campaign provided an unsecure URL in the sample message. URLs sent in message content are required to support the https: protocol and the sample message needs to reflect that.

### Possible solutions

* Correct the URL with https:// in your sample message and resubmit the verification
* Ensure that any URL's sent in messages will be secured with https://
