Opt-in URL Missing
Why This Rejection Happens
The campaign registration requires proof of how you collect consent (opt-in). You selected "Web Form" or "Digital" as the method, but left the "Opt-in URL" field blank or provided a broken/empty link. Carriers cannot verify your compliance if they cannot see the form.
Common Triggers: Leaving the field blank, submitting "N/A" for a web-based campaign, or failing to provide a hosted image URL for forms behind a login.
Root Cause Analysis
Primary Triggers
- Incomplete Data: The most common cause is simply forgetting to paste the URL into the required field.
- Wrong Method Selected: You selected "Verbal" or "Paper" but the form still required a URL because the system defaults to expecting digital proof.
- Gated Content: Your form is behind a login, so you didn't provide a URL, but didn't provide a screenshot either. You MUST provide one or the other.
Required Elements
| Opt-in Method | Required Proof | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Public Website | Direct URL to page | https://brand.com/signup |
| Behind Login | Hosted Screenshot URL | https://img.host/form.png |
| Paper Form | Hosted Image of Form | https://brand.com/files/intake.pdf |
Step-by-Step Remediation
Identify Your Opt-in Location
Where does the customer physically (or digitally) agree to receive texts? Is it a webpage? A paper form? A POS tablet?
Generate a Valid URL
If Public: Copy the exact browser link.
If Private/Offline: Take a photo or screenshot. Upload it to a secure cloud host (Google Drive public link, AWS S3, or your own website's media library). Copy that URL.
✓ Compliant Input

✗ Non-Compliant Input
(Blank) or www.google.com
Update the Campaign Registration
Paste the valid link into the "Opt-in Image URL" or "Opt-in URL" field. Ensure it is accessible without a password.
Carrier-Specific Requirements
T-Mobile
- Requires "visual proof." If the link is broken or leads to a blank page, the campaign is auto-rejected.
AT&T
- If providing a screenshot URL, ensure the text in the screenshot is legible. Blurry images will be rejected as "unable to verify."

Common Mistakes to Avoid
❌ Submitting "See Below"
Do not write "See description" in the URL field. The system validates the format as a hyperlink. It must be a valid http/https address.
❌ Password Protected Links
Do not share a Google Drive link that requires "Request Access." Set the sharing permissions to "Anyone with the link can view."
