Click Save

Step 6:

Step 7:

In the filter bar, type in "Phone"

For Phone Label and Optional Phone Label, copy and paste this text to your settings:

Phone - get support, offers, and updates via text

Then save, search "Marketing" in the filter bar, and enter the below text:

Text me exclusive promotions, offers and deals

Lastly, search for "By signing up" in the filter bar, and enter the text below:

By checking the checkbox above, you agree to receive recurring automated messages from [INSERT STORE NAME HERE], including cart reminders, at the phone number provided. Consent is not a condition of purchase. Reply STOP to unsubscribe. Reply HELP for help. Message frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. View our {{ privacy_policy_link }} and {{ terms_of_service_link }}.

Once you have completed this, scroll to the top and press save. Congrats you are complete!
