ITMS Opting in and Opting Out

Opt-in Methods

To opt in for ITMS SMS messages, consumers must receive an opt-in request text message. Here are the methods to opt in:

Agent-Initiated Opt-in:

• After storing a phone number in an ACE account, agents can send an opt-in request text by opening the phone demographic record and clicking "Send Opt In Request" for "Text Messaging."

• The consumer receives an opt-in text request and replies "YES."

• The consumer receives a unique PIN (text message authorization code) and can provide it to the agent, who enters it in the "Txt Msg Auth Code" field and confirms the opt-in.

 Quick Opt-In:

• Agents can opt in a consumer by setting "Opt" to "In" using the "Quick Opt In" option.

• An opt-in text request is sent, and the consumer opts in by replying "YES."

Supervisor-Initiated Opt-In:

• If a consumer sends a text from an unassociated number, a supervisor can link the number to the account, sending an opt-in text request. The consumer opts in by replying "YES."
