Abstract

A method and system for an end user (caller) to easily opt-in to receive digital communications, such as for a mobile marketing campaign, is disclosed herein. A caller uses a mobile communication device to make a standard voice phone call to a predefined number. A voice call termination point captures the caller ID. The caller then makes a selection, and the call is terminated. If the caller is determined to be using a mobile communication device, a confirmation of the selection is sent to the mobile communication device.
