Everything enterprise engineering and marketing leaders need to know about DLT header registration, content template matching, and scrub-free SMS routing.
Operating enterprise SMS infrastructure in India requires strict adherence to Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) mandates.
### Core Pillars of DLT Compliance
- **Principal Entity (PE) Registration**: Verifying enterprise legal identity across telecom DLT portals.
- **Sender ID (Header) Whitelisting**: Registering 6-character alpha headers for transactional and promotional traffic.
- **Content Template Binding**: Ensuring dynamic placeholders strictly match registered template schemas to prevent carrier rejections.
- **Telemarketer ID (TM ID) Chaining**: Correctly appending telemarketer identifiers on all SMPP and HTTP API requests.
Kommify's smart routing engine verifies DLT template hashes prior to carrier submission, preventing delivery drops and ensuring 99.9% OTP throughput.
