DAY ONE · NO WAIT

In Canada? You can text customers today.

The US phone-company registration that makes American shops wait about a week doesn't apply to a Canadian business texting Canadian customers. So on Loonext, you pick a local number, invite the crew, and start texting the same day you sign up. One shared inbox, $29 a month for the whole team, flat.

Day 0

You're live. That's the whole timeline.

Your number is up. Receiving texts works. Texting Canadian customers works. Invite the crew and start today.

Days 1 to 7 · US carrier review

Doesn't apply here. A Canadian business texting Canadian customers has no registration to wait on, so this segment does not exist.

Why there's no wait

No registration wait. Just text.

Here's the whole reason, in one plain sentence: the phone-company registration that US texting requires, the thing that adds 3 to 7 business days for American shops, isn't required for a Canadian business texting Canadian customers. No brand-and-campaign approval to sit through, no carrier review, no countdown banner. Your number is live, and it can send.

That's not a workaround or a trial mode; it's how the rules work north of the border, and Loonext is built to take advantage of it. Pick your number, add your crew, put "call or text" on your trucks, and you're in business the same afternoon.

Local numbers

A local number, in every province.

Type your city at signup and Loonext finds you a matching local number: a (416) or a (647) in Toronto, a (604) in Vancouver, a (403) in Calgary, a (902) in Halifax. A customer in your city sees a number that looks like it's from their city, because it is.

Local numbers are available across every province, and the ledger here is generated from the same numbering data the app assigns from, so it stays true as codes are added.

CASL-aware

Built to help you follow CASL.

CASL is Canada's anti-spam law, and Loonext is built with it in mind. A customer who texts you first is recorded as having consented the moment their text arrives. Starting a new conversation stamps a consent record with a name and a date. And when a customer texts STOP, they're opted out instantly, with any future send to that number blocked before it leaves the app.

We're careful with the words here: Loonext helps you follow CASL, it doesn't make you "CASL-compliant", because staying within the law also depends on you only texting people who actually agreed to hear from you. We keep the records and enforce the opt-outs; you bring the real list.

Texting the US later

Want to text US customers too? Turn it on any time.

Plenty of Canadian shops have customers, suppliers, or a second location across the border. When you're ready, enable US texting from settings: the one-time $29 registration fee and the 3 to 7 business day carrier approval apply then, the same wait US shops have. Until you enable it, you never pay the fee and never wait, and everything you've built stays exactly as it is.

And a plain word about where your data lives: it's stored and processed in the United States, and our privacy policy discloses the cross-border transfer the way PIPEDA and Quebec's Law 25 expect. Message content stays out of our analytics and error logs.

Stated plainly

Texting Canadian customers works day one. No registration, no fee, no wait.
A Canadian workspace is billed in Canadian dollars, plus tax. The price doesn't move with the exchange rate, and a Canadian card picks up no foreign-transaction fee.
Your data is stored in the United States, and the privacy policy says so plainly.

$29/mo · the whole crew, up to 3

The same flat plans as everyone: $29/mo on Starter for up to 3 people and one local number, $79/mo on Pro for up to 15 people and two numbers. Receiving texts is always free and unlimited, month to month.

A Canadian business texting Canadian customers pays no registration fee and waits for nothing. The one-time $29 fee and the 3 to 7 business day approval only ever apply if you choose to enable US texting later. A Canadian workspace is billed in Canadian dollars, plus sales tax where it applies.

A shared inbox for Canadian crews

Day-one texting is the headline; the shared inbox, the numbers, and the compliance handling are what you use every day.

Canada questions, straight answers.

Can I really text customers the same day I sign up?

Yes, if you're a Canadian business texting Canadian customers. The US carrier registration that makes American shops wait about a week doesn't apply to Canada-to-Canada texting, so your number can send as soon as it's active, usually a minute or two after you subscribe.

Do I get a real Canadian number?

Yes, a local number in the area code you choose, available across every province. The ledger on this page comes from the same numbering data the app assigns your number from.

Does Loonext make me CASL-compliant?

It helps you follow CASL; that's the accurate phrasing. Loonext records consent and enforces opt-outs, which are the mechanics CASL cares about. Staying compliant also depends on you only texting people who agreed to hear from you, which is on you, not the tool.

Where is my data stored?

In the United States. We state this plainly and disclose the cross-border transfer in our privacy policy, the way PIPEDA and Quebec's Law 25 expect. Message content is also kept out of our analytics and error logs; the details are on our security page.

I bill in Canada. Can I pay in Canadian dollars?

Yes. A Canadian workspace is billed in Canadian dollars, so the amount on your statement is the amount on the page, your bank isn't converting anything, and the bill doesn't drift up and down with the exchange rate. The currency comes from your country when you subscribe and is fixed on the subscription from then on, so switching it later is a support conversation rather than a setting.

Text your Canadian customers today.

Pick a local number, invite the crew, and start texting the same afternoon. No registration wait, no sales call, month to month.
