Orla McMahon
Last updated November 25, 2024
New Feature
We’re excited to introduce SMS Easy Opt-In, a groundbreaking feature designed to help stores effortlessly grow their SMS audience while keeping the checkout experience smooth and compliant.
Double opt-in requirements, particularly in countries like the US and Germany, can often lead to friction and missed opportunities to connect with customers. SMS Easy Opt-In solves this by enabling a seamless, user-friendly flow directly at checkout, boosting SMS opt-ins, and ensuring compliance without disrupting the customer experience.
Why SMS Easy Opt-In Matters
For stores with a significant customer base in countries requiring double opt-in, like the US and Germany, collecting SMS consent can be a challenge. Traditional methods often cause drop-offs and lower opt-in rates. With SMS Easy Opt-In, you can turn these challenges into opportunities, growing your SMS audience while maintaining a frictionless checkout process.
