You can correct and resubmit the failed sender IDs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q3: How long does approval take?<\/strong><br><strong>A:<\/strong> If your account has auto-approval enabled, sender IDs are approved instantly. Otherwise, administrators will review and approve them manually (typically within 24-48 hours).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q4: Will I receive a notification when my sender IDs are approved?<\/strong><br><strong>A:<\/strong> Approval notifications depend on your system configuration. Check the sender ID status in your panel or contact your administrator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q5: Can I delete a sender ID after adding it?<\/strong><br><strong>A:<\/strong> Yes, click the <strong>Delete<\/strong> button next to any sender ID in the main table to remove it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q6: Why is the &#8220;+&#8221; button not working?<\/strong><br><strong>A:<\/strong> Make sure you haven&#8217;t reached the maximum limit of 5 sender IDs.

Contact your administrator for pricing details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q8: Can I use the same sender ID for SMS and WhatsApp?<\/strong><br><strong>A:<\/strong> No, SMS sender IDs and WhatsApp sender names are managed separately.
