A texting clause for your contracts

Add this paragraph to your contracts or estimates. When a customer signs, they've agreed in writing to get invoice texts from you through InvoiceNag.

Clause language:

Text message updates. By writing my mobile number below and initialing here, I agree to receive text messages from [Your business name], sent through InvoiceNag, about this project's invoices, payment reminders and receipts. Message frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to opt out, or HELP for help. Details: invoicenag.com/sms. Agreeing to texts is not a condition of this contract. Mobile number: ______________ Customer initials: ______

How to use it

Replace the business name in brackets with the name your customers know you by.
Put it in the contract or estimate, or in a short addendum signed with it.
Have the customer write their own mobile number and initial the clause. It's their choice: if they leave it blank, reminders can go by email instead.
Keep the signed copy, in case you're ever asked to show their consent.

The reply-YES text

For now, InvoiceNag still sends every new customer one text asking them to reply YES before any invoice texts go out. Customers who signed the clause are expecting it, so they're much more likely to reply.

This isn't legal advice. Rules on texting and consent can vary by state, so check with your attorney if you're unsure. How InvoiceNag texts work
