The Government Emergency Telecommunications Service (GETS) and the Wireless Priority Service (WPS) programs are companion services for priority calling offered by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Emergency Communications (OEC). OEC recommends that individuals requesting WPS also request a GETS card. The registration process will allow you to request both services at the same time.

Most organizations have a single point of contact (POC) who is able to submit GETS and WPS requests online. However, large or geographically dispersed organizations may elect to establish multiple POCs. 

• If you already know your organization’s POC, please contact that individual to request a GETS card and/or enroll in WPS. 
• To find out if your organization has a POC, click here.
• To change the POC for your organization, click here.
• Organizations without a POC will need to establish one.
