What is Campaign Verify?
Campaign Verify is a secure, non-partisan, nonprofit verification solution for U.S. political actors seeking to verify their identity and engage with voters via text messaging
Campaign Verify aims to prevent spoofing and disinformation in political messaging by acting as the verification layer for campaigns, committees, and PACs. CV serves the wider 10DLC ecosystem as the political vetting partner for The Campaign Registry.
How does it work?
Campaign Verify
- Validates that campaigns are in fact who they say they are
- Creates authentication tokens that signal to The Campaign Registry, carriers, and service providers that they have been verified
By requiring campaigns to have a verification token, Campaign Verify aims to prevent bad actors from spoofing a campaign and increase trust in the messaging ecosystem.
Verification costs $95 per verification request per 2-year election cycle.
Who is eligible for CV verification?
- Any campaign, committee, or PAC registered with FEC
- Any State, Local, or Tribal candidate or committee registered with an election authority
What is the format of a CV token?
A full CV token is comprised of 6 pipe (|) delimited fields
