How Does It Work?
Wireless subscribers, whose wireless devices are capable of receiving text messages, may opt in to receive Wireless AMBER Alerts by registering at www.wirelessamberalerts.org or by visiting their wireless carrier’s website.
When you opt in, consumers need to provide their wireless phone numbers, including area code, and designate up to five ZIP codes for which they want to receive Wireless AMBER Alerts.
Subscribers that opt in to receive Wireless AMBER Alerts will only receive AMBER Alert messages on their wireless devices if the alerts pertain to the ZIP codes they selected when they opted in to receive the alerts.
When you register, you may designate up to five ZIP codes from which you will receive Wireless AMBER Alerts. We recommend that you at least register the ZIP Codes where you live and work.
You can unsubscribe to Wireless AMBER Alerts at any time using one of the following methods:
- Go to www.wirelessamberalerts.org. Enter your wireless number and follow the directions to be removed from the wireless AMBER Alert distribution program.
- Additional information should be available on participating carriers’ websites.
