Alchemy Technology, Inc., industry-leading lending as a service organization today announce the full integration with Solutions by Text, a leading consumer SMS provider that focuses on consumer finance space.

Founded in 2004 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, Solutions by Text has been helping businesses to understand and leverage the power of text messaging to increase sales and customer retention.

Alchemy and Solutions by Text completed its integration within a few days due to the simplicity of Solutions by Text’s API. The product and project managers were exceptional and helped Alchemy and Alchemy’s clients to integrate their solutions point at various stages of the customer application.

Solutions by Text’s API Calls

Solutions by Text offers several compliance-driven and consent-based API calls to end-customer mobile phones.

The first set of those APIs* is a call to verify that the customer provided phone number is truly a mobile phone number. It is important that Alchemy’s clients have full verification that their end customers are using a mobile phone number to be completely compliant in terms of various regulatory requirements such as TCPA, Telephone Consumer Protection Act.

The next set of the API call is to send a short text message to the end consumers that ask for consent to communicate with them for either or both account management related text messages and marketing messages. The consumer doesn’t necessarily have to consent to marketing related messages and Solutions by Text’s API makes it easy for integrators and platforms such as Alchemy to clearly state the end-customer’s true intent.

The customer simply replies “YES” on their mobile phone and the customer consent is then captured and registered by both Alchemy on behalf of its client and also at Solutions by Text.

An Important Partnership

Getting consumer consent to communicate via SMS in the finanical industry is the most utmost regulated activity in today’s privacy concious environment. The ability to bridge lending technology from Alchemy and SMS technology from Solutions by Text is the right paternship to enable Alchemy’s clients to properly leverage SMS, Short Message Service to communicate and retain their customers.

We encourage our clients and potential FinTech startups to look into Solutions by Text. They are more than just an SMS solutions provider, the API and workflow they’ve built starts with compliance and consent in mind.
