Clear SMS consent
SMS consent is explicit.
BluffBuddy uses a guest page and branded consent prompts. We do not use unsolicited SMS as the first step for collecting guest opt-in. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
Guest link first
ActDaily, Inc. d/b/a BluffBuddy sends guests to a public guest page instead of asking them to consent from an unknown number.
Clear opt-in
The guest page explains the alert type, organizer, and what messages the guest will receive before SMS game alerts begin.
Standard controls
Guests may reply JOIN only after seeing the branded consent flow. STOP and HELP are always supported.
