Record consent you already have
Save proof that a customer agreed to texts or emails, for one person or a pasted list.
Someone said yes on the phone, in person or on a form? Write it down with the date and wording. You can prove it later.
Warning: consent can’t come from a list you bought or got from someone else.
One customer
- Go to Marketing → 👥 Consent.
- Click ➕ Record consent for one customer.
- Type a name, phone or email in Customer and pick the person.
- Under What they agreed to, tick Texts and/or Emails. A channel is greyed out if the customer has no number or address on file.
- Pick How they agreed: Agreed on a phone call, Signed quote or contract, Paper form, Website sign-up form, Replied YES / START by text, Agreed in person, or Other (say how).
- Edit What they agreed to (the words). Write what the form said or what you told them. It is kept as proof.
- Set Date they agreed. It cannot be in the future.
- Optionally add Proof (optional): PNG, JPG, WebP or PDF, up to 5 MB.
- Click Save consent.
A list of customers
- Click 📋 Paste a list of customers.
- Put one person per line: phone, email or name, in any order. For example
Jane Smith, (860) 555-0123. - A preview says how many lines have a phone or email. Paste 500 or fewer at a time.
- Pick what they agreed to, how, the wording and the date. Everyone gets the same, so paste only people who agreed that way.
- Tick Add people who aren’t customers yet if needed.
- Do not tick This list was bought, rented or given to me by someone else. If you do, it is refused.
- Click Save consent for this list. Results show how many were saved and which lines were not found.
Withdraw consent
In Proof of consent, click Withdraw next to a record. The customer stops getting marketing for that channel. The record stays.
The checklist before a text campaign
Before your first marketing text campaign, you confirm a short checklist under Before you text a list. It is saved with the date and words. Reopen it under Marketing → Safety → ✅ Before you text a list.
Tips
- If a person texted STOP or unsubscribed before, they must opt in themselves. Recording consent does not override that.
- Everything you record appears in Your record on the Safety tab.
If something goes wrong
- “Choose how they agreed.” appears: pick an option in How they agreed.
- A line is rejected: it needs a phone number or an email.
