Sign up forms are an effective way to gain subscribers and assign them to specific marketing groups of your choice. People can sign up for your text message marketing from different media outlets depending on where you place the form(s). Once the sign up form is created, we provide export options such as the sign up form URL, snippet of iFrame code, and a QR code available in multiple file formats.

Below is what you need to create your sign up form.

There are four parts to creating a sign up form:

• Form
• Permission Request Text Message
• Permission Acknowledgement Text Message
• Success Message
