What’s the Problem?

- Noncompliant billing practices
- Minimal pricing and subscription disclosures
- Unclear or no opt-out information

The problem in the PSMS environment is that not everyone is as careful with your brand or as respectful of your subscribers as you are. Most content providers play by the rules, but others submit compliant campaigns for carrier approval, then promptly launch noncompliant programs and advertising on your network using the shortcode you’ve just provisioned for them! For carriers who’ve yet to employ in-market monitoring, the first indication that anything is wrong comes with spikes in customer care calls. Unchecked, this problem can soon expand from operational to legal.
What’s It Mean for Carriers?
- Customer care calls
- Customer refunds
- Diminished consumer confidence
- Brand risk
- Regulatory pressure
- Legal and operational liabilities
- Churn
