Tariff Monster Text Messages

Tariff Monster is operated by Bridgemaster Holdings LLC.

What we send

Tariff Monster sends account and service text messages to users who ask for them:

sign-in and verification codes;
account and security notices, such as a new sign-in to your account;
requests from your customs broker for a document, such as a power of attorney, an identity check or a C-TPAT questionnaire;
replies to messages you send us.

We do not send marketing or promotional text messages.
