🎉 It’s that time again! Let’s take a closer look at the latest batch of features released on the Dialpad platform in September:

  • Enhanced SMS opt-out experience
  • Click-to-text in Dialpad’s Salesforce CTI

Enhanced SMS opt-out experience

No matter how excellent your product, service, or marketing is, there will always be someone who doesn't want to receive business text messages. So It's important to make opt-out easy and keep customer satisfaction high.

Dialpad's opt-out keywords let you be confident your messages are wanted, sent with the recipient's consent, compliant with communications guidelines, and not flagged as spam. Whether your customers, prospects, and contacts don't want messages, do want messages, or just looking for some support, it just takes a single word response!

STOP: means they no longer wish to receive messages

UNSTOP: lets them quickly change their mind and start receiving messages again

HELP: sends them the information they need to get support

Dialpad's SMS traffic is considered as Application-to-Person (A2P) messaging. All A2P messages originating from our platform must comply with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, which requires recipients have the ability to opt-out/into business SMS messages. This feature gives recipients more control and allows senders to comply with industry standards around SMS spam prevention.
