We provide compliant phone numbers and handle all A2P (Application-to-Person) registration requirements. Your food business gets professional SMS service without the compliance headaches.
🎉 Your A2P registration is complete and compliant!
All major carriers require A2P registration for commercial messaging. EatCaterly provides compliant phone numbers and handles all registration requirements so you don't have to.
EatCaterly provides you with carrier-compliant phone numbers that are pre-registered for A2P messaging. You get professional SMS service without any setup, registration, or compliance work required.
Here's what carriers require for A2P compliance - all handled by EatCaterly behind the scenes:
Register your food business with carriers to establish commercial messaging legitimacy.
Get your SMS campaigns pre-approved to ensure message delivery and compliance.
Ensure your messages meet carrier standards for commercial food service communications.
Failing to register for A2P can result in message filtering, delivery failures, or complete blocking by carriers.
EatCaterly uses multiple TCPA-compliant opt-in methods to ensure every customer explicitly consents to receiving SMS messages. Here's how we protect your business and your customers.
Customers text a keyword to opt-in
Compliance: TCPA-compliant double opt-in with confirmation message
Phone number collection on website forms
Compliance: Clear consent language and checkbox before submission
Phone collection during checkout
Compliance: Explicit consent obtained before first message
In-person or phone consent
Compliance: Documented consent with customer confirmation
Customers must know what they're signing up for, including message frequency and that standard rates apply.
Opt-in must be voluntary and affirmative - pre-checked boxes or assumed consent don't qualify.
Every message must include opt-out instructions. Reply STOP to any message to unsubscribe instantly.
Customer phone numbers are never shared with third parties and are only used for agreed purposes.
Use this compliant language on your forms and checkout pages:
Yes, send me text messages! By checking this box and providing my mobile number, I agree to receive automated promotional and transactional text messages from [Your Restaurant Name] at this number.
Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt-out or HELP for help. View our Terms and Privacy Policy.
💡 EatCaterly automatically includes opt-out instructions in every message and processes STOP requests instantly.
