FAQs on Gym Implicit SMS
Q: What qualifies as an Implicit SMS for a gym?
Messages triggered by a member’s action or existing relationship—like booking a class or paying fees—without promotional content.
Q: Can I send Implicit SMS to DND numbers?
Yes. Since these are service-related and non-promotional, they’re allowed even for DND-registered users.
Q: Do I need consent for Implicit SMS?
Consent is implied through prior engagement (e.g., membership, booking). No explicit opt-in is required.
Q: What’s the difference between Implicit and Transactional SMS?
Transactional SMS is strictly for critical info like OTPs. Implicit SMS covers broader service updates tied to user activity.
Q: Can I include my gym name in the message?
Yes, and it’s recommended for brand recognition and DLT compliance.
Q: How many variables can I use in a template?
Typically up to 5 variables using {#var#} format. Each must be clearly defined during DLT registration.
