Configuring Consent IVR

With this block, configure the built-in consent IVR for asking the customer consent for call recording.

Consent Prompts

Note: The system includes built-in example prompts for consent IVR. Make sure that these prompts fulfill your needs, or make your own ones locally according to your needs and local regulations.
  1. The first prompt (in consent IVR settings Prompt for Consent Question) expresses the actual question about consent, and DTMF alternatives for answers Yes and No.
  2. The second prompt (Prompt for Registered Consent) informs the caller that the consent information has been registered.
  3. The third prompt (Prompt for Consent Not Registered) informs the caller that no consent is registered.

If you you make your own prompts, record the audio files, bring them into systems as prompt files with the type IVR Prompt, and create corresponding prompts with the type IVR Prompt.
