Under 47 CFR \u00a7 64.1200(a)(10), businesses must honor revocations within a maximum of 10 business days. High-volume teams treat real-time suppression as the standard. Consumers can revoke by any reasonable means, including reply text, verbal request, or email.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Respect calling and texting hours.<\/strong> Telemarketing calls and texts are restricted to 8 AM to 9 PM in the recipient\u2019s local time zone (47 CFR \u00a7 64.1200(c)(1)).

The financial stakes increase quickly at scale. <a href=\"https:\/\/leadcompliant.com\/articles\/tcpa-basics\/tcpa-news-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noindex nofollow\">A single non-compliant campaign to 50,000 contacts creates $25 million in theoretical exposure before trebling for willfulness<\/a>. Year-to-date through March 2026, 798 TCPA lawsuits were filed, up 23.7% compared to the same period in 2025. TCPA class actions comprised 77.7% of all TCPA filings in March 2026. Each text or call counts as a separate potential violation under 47 U.S.C. \u00a7 227(b)(3).<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<p>These answers recap the most common TCPA questions leaders raise about text-to-call programs.<\/p>\n<h3>Does the TCPA apply to text messages?<\/h3>\n<p>The FCC interprets text messages, including SMS and MMS, as \u201ccalls\u201d under the TCPA. Marketing texts to wireless numbers require prior express written consent, the same standard that applies to outbound telemarketing voice calls. Informational texts, such as appointment reminders, follow the lower standard of prior express consent. Teams should consult qualified counsel to determine which standard applies to a specific program.<\/p>\n<h3>What are the new TCPA rules for 2026?<\/h3>\n<p>Several developments shape the 2026 compliance landscape. The FCC\u2019s CG Docket No. 26-52 proposes a 30% cap on offshore customer-service calls and restrictions on offshore handling of sensitive consumer data. The consent revocation rule, which would treat a single STOP as canceling consent for all unrelated messages from a caller, has been delayed to January 31, 2027 per Order DA 26-12. The one-to-one consent rule was vacated by the Eleventh Circuit in January 2025 and formally eliminated by the FCC in September 2025, leaving multi-seller consent available at the federal level. The DNC registry now covers text messages. State mini-TCPA laws in Texas, Oregon, Florida, and other states impose stricter hours and higher per-violation damages than federal rules. Operators running text-to-call campaigns should review each development with qualified legal counsel.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I handle STOP replies in a text-to-call workflow?<\/h3>\n<p>STOP replies need to be honored immediately across all channels. The FCC has identified seven per se revocation words: stop, quit, end, revoke, opt out, cancel, and unsubscribe. Under 47 CFR \u00a7 64.1200(a)(10), the maximum window for honoring a revocation is 10 business days, but real-time suppression is the operational standard for text-to-call programs. A final confirmation message is permitted and must contain no promotional content. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bclplaw.com\/en-US\/events-insights-news\/the-tcpas-new-opt-out-rules-take-effect-on-april-11-2025-what-does-this-mean-for-businesses.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noindex nofollow\">Under the FCC\u2019s TCPA revocation rules effective April 11, 2025, an opt-out from SMS automatically cancels consent for voice calls, and the reverse, when the revocation is made by any reasonable means<\/a>. Suppression therefore needs to propagate across every channel in your stack before the next dial attempt.<\/p>\n<h3>How does AI affect TCPA compliance for text-to-call?<\/h3>\n<p>AI affects compliance at every layer of the text-to-call workflow. The FCC\u2019s February 2024 Declaratory Ruling confirmed that AI-generated voices qualify as \u201cartificial or prerecorded voices\u201d under the TCPA, which subjects outbound AI voice calls to the same prior express written consent requirements as traditional robocalls. AI SMS agents sending outbound messages must be registered through A2P 10DLC before the first message is sent. AI agents must recognize opt-out expressions in real time during both text and voice conversations and propagate revocations immediately to all suppression lists. Consent captured verbally during an AI call can be acceptable when recorded, timestamped, and paired with the same disclosures used on a web form, subject to jurisdictional differences. The infrastructure layer, including the carrier, the consent ledger, and the DNC scrubbing system, determines whether compliance holds at scale. As noted earlier, customers retain responsibility for their own compliance obligations regardless of the platform they use.<\/p>\n<h3>What are the quiet hours for text-to-call campaigns?<\/h3>\n<p>Federal rules under 47 CFR \u00a7 64.1200(c)(1) restrict telemarketing calls and texts to 8 AM to 9 PM in the recipient\u2019s local time zone. For text-to-call campaigns, both the SMS and the follow-up call must fall within the recipient-local window, not the sender\u2019s office time zone. State mini-TCPA laws may impose stricter windows. Florida restricts automated calls and texts to 8 AM to 8 PM. Oregon\u2019s HB 3865, effective January 1, 2026, restricts contact hours to 8 AM to 8 PM and limits daily calls to three per consumer. Operators running nationwide campaigns often apply the strictest applicable rule for each recipient\u2019s state after consulting qualified counsel.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion and Next Steps for Text-to-Call Leaders<\/h2>\n<p>Text-to-call delivers top-tier conversion in lead response and carries significant risk when the compliance lifecycle is not wired correctly. The 2026 rules, state mini-TCPA expansion, and the rise of AI agents in the text-to-call stack push teams toward a compliance-first operating model. Leaders should audit current text-to-call workflows, review consent records, and assess whether their platform enforces controls at the carrier layer or adds them later in the stack.<\/p>\n<p>Plura AI is an FCC-licensed carrier that builds compliance into the infrastructure layer with real-time DNC scrubbing, automated quiet-hours enforcement, immutable consent records, and branded caller ID issued at the carrier level.
