Double Opt-In
What is a Double Opt-In
A double opt-in occurs when a user signs up for an email and/or SMS marketing list, and then an email or text message is sent out to the user which includes a link to click or respond to confirm the subscription. Only after the confirmation is received will the user officially be added to the appropriate marketing list.
What it does:
Sends a Double Opt-In SMS message to the contact in the customer journey. In Patch we follow the rule or guideline that if a user provides their email there is implied consent, however, SMS is more strict regarding expressed consent so we recommend all accounts implement the double opt-in for SMS.
