### What do the different application statuses (verified and unverified) mean?

-**Verified:** Verified numbers have gone through the toll-free verification process and have been approved. Their traffic is subjected to limited filters. If traffic does trigger any filters, that specific content is blocked but the number is not automatically blocked.

-
-**Unverified:** Unverified numbers have either 1) not submitted a verification application, 2) have submitted the verification application and are waiting for a decision, or 3) have had their application denied. These numbers will not be able to send any SMS traffic.
