Pennsylvania SMS Compliance Compliance
Text message marketing compliance rules in Pennsylvania
Mini-TCPA State — 73 Pa. Stat. § 2241 et seq.
Pennsylvania has enacted a state-level TCPA that goes beyond federal requirements. Federal compliance alone is not enough for SMS Compliance operations here.
Consent Requirements
One-to-One Consent Required
Shared consent from lead generators is NOT valid. Consent must specifically name your company.
SMS marketing to PA consumers follows federal TCPA requirements. Prior express written consent needed for automated marketing texts. The FCC one-to-one consent rule (effective Jan 2025) means purchased lead lists with bundled consent are unusable. PA UTPCPL provides an additional enforcement layer for deceptive text marketing practices. No separate state SMS statute exists.
