Understanding SMS Opt-In and Opt-Out
Explore common questions about the SMS messaging opt-in and opt-out processes to ensure you have all the necessary information to manage your preferences effectively.
What is SMS opt-in?
SMS opt-in is the process where you give explicit permission to receive text messages from a business or service. This is typically done by signing up through a form or texting a specific keyword to a designated number.
How do I opt-out of SMS messages?
To opt-out of SMS messages, you can usually reply with a keyword such as ‘STOP’ to the number from which you received the message. This will unsubscribe you from further messages from that sender.
Can I opt back in after opting out?
Yes, you can opt back in by following the original opt-in process, such as texting a specific keyword to the service number or signing up again through a form.
Are there any costs associated with SMS messaging?
While receiving SMS messages from businesses is typically free, standard messaging rates from your mobile carrier may apply, depending on your phone plan.
How often will I receive SMS messages?
The frequency of SMS messages varies by service. Some businesses send messages weekly, while others may only send them for special promotions or updates.
Is my personal information safe when I opt-in?
Reputable businesses adhere to privacy laws and guidelines to protect your personal information. Always review a company’s privacy policy before opting in.
