1. **Opt-In Preferences:**

Messages will be sent exclusively to contacts who have actively chosen to receive marketing communications when you click the Toggle "ON". This ensures compliance with privacy regulations and respects the preferences of the recipients.

2. **Quality Rating Warning:**

A warning is issued to emphasize the importance of sending messages only to opted-in contacts. Sending messages to contacts who have opted out may negatively impact the quality rating of the sender.

3. **Reply Settings (Optional):**

Users have the option to configure reply settings. These settings come into play when the recipient clicks on a button or replies (swipes right) to the message. This provides a level of customization for managing responses and interactions.

4. **Assign to:**

You can assign the reply to a specific team member or assignee. This feature allows for effective delegation and collaboration within your team members.

5. **Override Current Assignments:**

The option to override current assignment allows you to reassign the conversation to an agent or a bot who is already connected with your customer.

* You can initiate the test messages by clicking on "**Send Now**"
