Get4th SMS program
Get4th and get4th.com are owned and operated by Can Tech Corp, a Massachusetts corporation (Sudbury, MA). Contact: support@get4th.com.
Get4th (get4th.com) is a pickleball game organiser operated by Can Tech Corp, Sudbury, Massachusetts. Organisers post a game; the players they have added receive a text message and reply to take a spot. This page describes the messaging program registered with US carriers (A2P 10DLC).
Who receives messages
Only people who have consented to a specific group (club or home court). Players never create an account or install an app. A number typed in by an organiser is never texted game invitations until consent is on record.
How a player opts in (two ways)
- Online form. The organiser shares a join link (get4th.com/j/…). The player enters their name and mobile number and must tick a consent checkbox reading: “Text me about games at this number. A few messages a week at most. Reply STOP any time to end them. I accept the Terms and Privacy Notice.” The form cannot be submitted without the box ticked.
- Keyword reply. If an organiser attests that a player gave them their number in person, Get4th sends one confirmation request: “Get4th here — [Organiser] from [Group] uses this to organize pickleball games. Get game invites at this number? Reply YES to start, STOP to opt out. Msg&data rates may apply.” Only a reply of YES records consent. Anything else, or no reply, and no further messages are sent.
Each consent is stored with the exact wording shown, a timestamp, and its source.
What players receive
- Game invitations from their group, with a short link to respond
- Confirmations, waitlist updates and reminders the day before a game
- Cancellations (for example a rain call) and answers to questions they text back
Frequency: typically 1–5 messages per week, depending on how often the group plays. Message and data rates may apply.
