Every business knows they need text messaging.
Thing is, text messaging compliance is complicated and different than other channels. It can lead to big fines and undelivered messages if not followed correctly.
The Risk of Violating Text Messaging Compliance
Several big companies have had to learn this the hard way.
- Papa John’s: A $250 million class-action lawsuit for blasting customer with illegal text messages resulted in a $16.5 million settlement.
- JiffyLube paid $47 million in a similar settlement.
- Ralph Lauren was ordered to pay $1,500/message for sending text messages without consent.
The list is long and growing longer every day.
