[ A2P ] Ensure Your Use Case Involves Consumer Consent Before Sending Messages

Important: For a complete overview of all steps and best practices involved in the A2P 10DLC registration process, please refer to the main article: "A2P 10DLC Campaign Approval Best Practices."

Make sure you collect consumer consent appropriately. Please refer to the CTIA guidelines for detailed instructions and best practices on handling consumer consent.

Best Practice

Examples

Make sure consumer opt-in is collected appropriately

If you indicate you collect opt-in va text messages, but your sample messages say, "Hi, is this the owner of 123 Oak Street? I'd like to discuss how I can help you sell your property", it is clear that you have not collected appropriate consent before sending messages and your campaign will be rejected.

Make sure opt-in language is available on your website if you indicated in the "message flow" field that a consumer opts into your campaign on your company website.

If your brand Acme uses its website, www.acme.com, to collect phone numbers but your website does not contain opt-in language such as: "I agree to receive Automated Reminders and Service Based messages from [Business Name], at the phone number provided above. This agreement isn't a condition of any purchase, Msg & data rates may apply, message frequencies vary. Text HELP to [Business Number] for assistance, reply STOP or OUT to opt out or unsubscribe at any time, your campaign will be rejected.

We recommend having opt-out language in both of your sample messages.

For example, please add language such as, "Please reply STOP to opt-out"

Please Note: The ecosystem constantly improves the vetting criteria as it comes across additional violations. Please do not consider the best practices listed above as a “catch-all” and guarantee approval as long as you follow them all; instead, consider them as a baseline that illustrates the general direction of compliant, high-quality messaging that the ecosystem is moving towards.
