+2Hi there,
Is there any way to change the opt-in checkbox at checkout to be opt out instead?
The opt-in option is known as Consent
The opt-out option is known as Legitimate Interests, and I believe both are legal in the UK.
We’re on Woocommerce.
Thanks

Hi
As am example, you can look for the input checkbox in the HTML and set it to checked like this:
<input type="checkbox" class="input-checkbox " name="kl_newsletter_checkbox" id="kl_newsletter_checkbox" value="1" checked="true" />If that doesn’t work, you can use Javascript to do this after the page renders:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
document.getElementById('kl_newsletter_checkbox').checked = true
}
</script>I haven’t tested the Javascript code above, so you may have to adjust it, find the proper placement, or add it to your existing Javascript functions. But it should give you or your developer a head start!

Typically it is recommend against having the ‘accepts marketing’ at checkout checked by default. The reason for this is to prevent the accumulation of passive subscribers who might be more likely to unsubscribe or mark as spam (negatively impacting your deliverability) as previously mentioned.
