How to add an opt-out link to SMS messages?
- Go to SMS > click on the Create text message button.
- In the Content section, click on the + unsubscribe link to add a link into your message.
How does the link work?
When the SMS recipient clicks on the link, they get redirected to an opt-out page.
Once the Yes, unsubscribe button is clicked, the contact is put on an SMS opt-out list on the level of the subaccount and is excluded from any future sending from that subaccount.
Note: the subscriber is not taken out of any contact list they were on.
What happens after a contact unsubscribes?
Every time an SMS is sent from that subaccount, numbers from the opt-out list are automatically excluded from the recipient list.
Opt-out stats are included in Sent SMS statistics.
Due to privacy protection laws, it’s not possible to check which numbers are on the opt-out list. We also don’t show how many contacts unsubscribed from each subaccount.
The opt-out list works also for SMS sent to numbers from a file.
