The toll-free phone number cannot be verified because the submission indicated that the business is associated with or the toll-free verification submission indicated a forbidden messaging category (Illegal Substances/articles: Cannabis/CBD).

Messages related to cannabis are not allowed in the United States as federal laws prohibit its sale, even though some states have legalized it. Similarly, messages related to CBD are not permissible in the United States, as certain states prohibit its sale. Twilio defines a cannabis message as any message which relates to the marketing or sale of a cannabis product, regardless of whether or not those messages explicitly contain cannabis terms, images, or links to cannabis websites.

If you are confident that your business and messaging use case does not fit into forbidden message categories, contact Twilio Support to provide Additional Information that explains your use case.
