SMS Messaging & Opt-In

Seatd uses transactional SMS messages to provide reservation and waitlist updates to guests who voluntarily opt in. SMS consent is optional and is not required to make a reservation.

How guests opt in

  1. 1. A guest enters their mobile phone number during the Seatd booking or waitlist process.
  2. 2. The guest is presented with a separate SMS consent checkbox.
  3. 3. The checkbox is unchecked by default.
  4. 4. The guest must actively select the checkbox to opt in.
  5. 5. Guests may continue without selecting the checkbox.
