Follow Up Boss A2P registration rejected: how to fix your website's SMS consent checkbox

How to resolve a Follow Up Boss A2P business registration rejection caused by a required SMS consent checkbox on your Luxury Presence website.

---

Overview

If your Follow Up Boss (FUB) A2P (Application-to-Person) business registration was rejected, one common cause is that your Luxury Presence website's contact form requires visitors to check an SMS consent checkbox before they can submit the form. FUB's compliance review requires that this checkbox be optional — visitors must be able to submit the form without being forced to consent to text messages.

To pass FUB's A2P registration review, the SMS consent checkbox needs to be made optional on your website. This is a change made by the Luxury Presence support team — contact us using the steps below.

Why this matters

• FUB requires optional SMS consent — FCC and A2P messaging regulations require that text opt-in consent cannot be a condition of form submission
• A required checkbox blocks registration — if the checkbox is mandatory, FUB cannot approve your registration, which prevents you from using FUB's texting features
• Making it optional doesn't remove the consent language — visitors can still choose to opt in to texts; they simply aren't forced to

Background: what is A2P business registration?

A2P (Application-to-Person) registration is required by U.S. mobile carriers for businesses that send text messages to customers through software platforms like Follow Up Boss. Registration verifies your business identity and ensures your texting practices comply with regulations around unsolicited commercial messages.

As part of this process, FUB reviews your website to confirm that your lead capture forms handle text message consent appropriately — specifically, that opting in to texts is a choice, not a requirement to submit a form.

FAQs

Will making the checkbox optional remove the consent language from my forms?

No. Making the SMS consent checkbox optional does not remove the opt-in language from your contact forms. The consent text remains visible — visitors simply are no longer required to check it before submitting. Visitors who do check the box are still providing their consent to receive text messages.

Does this affect all contact forms on my website, or just certain ones?

The change applies to the specific forms our team updates. When you contact support, let us know which forms are included on your website so we can update all relevant forms as part of a single request.

How long does it take Follow Up Boss to review my registration after I resubmit?

Review timelines are set by Follow Up Boss and their carrier partners — Luxury Presence does not control this process. After resubmitting, allow several business days for FUB's review team to process your registration. Contact Follow Up Boss support directly if you need a status update.

My registration was still rejected after making the checkbox optional — what should I do?

FUB's review team may identify other issues beyond the checkbox requirement, such as missing privacy policy language or incomplete business information. Review the full rejection feedback from FUB and address each point listed. Contact our support team if any of the required changes involve your Luxury Presence website.
