Website Compliance Checklist
Before submission, ensure:
- Your Privacy Policy is live and accessible
- Your Terms of Use are live and accessible
- Both documents reference SMS messaging if applicable
- The business name matches what is submitted in registration
- Your website is fully functional (not under construction)
Note: Your bLoyal Client Success Manager will also help you with:
- Adding a compliant Online Signup Form and Opt-In process for your website which will also be reviewed by the Carriers as part of the Registration Process.
- If you also have physical Store, we will assist you in describing a compliant In-Store Signup and Opt-In process for the review.
Why This Matters
Carriers review your online presence to verify:
- Your business legitimacy
- Transparency around data use
- Clear disclosure of messaging practices
- Consumer protection compliance
Missing or incomplete privacy disclosures are a common cause of registration delays.
If you do not currently have compliant Privacy or Terms documents, please notify your Client Success Manager before submission so we can help guide next steps.
Messaging Campaign Details Required
You will also need to provide:
1. Use Case Description
A clear explanation of:
- What type of messages you are sending
- Why you are sending them
- Who will receive them
Example:
“We send promotional offers and loyalty rewards updates to customers who have opted in at checkout or via our website.”
2. Message Samples (2–5 examples)
These should reflect real messages you intend to send.
Example (Marketing):
“bLoyal Rewards: Enjoy 20% off this weekend only! Show this text at checkout. Reply STOP to unsubscribe.”
Example (Informational):
“Your order #1234 is ready for pickup. Reply STOP to unsubscribe.”
All samples must:
- Identify your brand clearly
- Include opt-out instructions (e.g., Reply STOP to unsubscribe)
3. Opt-In Method Description
Carriers require a detailed explanation of how customers consent to receive messages.
Examples:
- Web form checkbox
- POS sign-up
- Paper form
- Keyword text-to-join
- Loyalty enrollment
You must confirm that:
- Customers knowingly opt in
- Consent is not pre-checked
- Opt-in language discloses message frequency and data rates
4. Opt-Out Process
All campaigns must support:
- STOP to unsubscribe
- HELP for assistance
This is automatically supported within the bLoyal Engagement Solution.
Accuracy Matters
Inconsistent information (for example, mismatched website content or vague opt-in descriptions) is the most common cause of rejection.
When in doubt, provide more detail rather than less.
