What is Website Registration?
If you want to send URLs via SMS or MMS you need to register the website that features those URLs with ClickSend first. This allows us to check the website to make sure any URLs pointing to that website are safe for people to click.
Website Registration is an important security feature that helps to stop phishing and scams. It only takes a few minutes to register a website.
Registering the right web address
When registering your website, you only need to register the website domain.
✔️ Register: | ❌ Don’t register |
Website domains like: www.clicksend.com | Specific URLs or links like:www.clicksend.com/about |
Website subdomains like:help.clicksend.com | Website pages like:Contact, Blog, Services, etc. |
