Is there an option to allow/require the customer to enter their PHONE NUMBER when subscribing?

Our customers, like many, are very non-technical. I'd like to have a Phone Number for them when they subscribe.

I don't see that option anywhere.

   Hi Clay,

   We don't store customer phone numbers in our database, so adding that to the Hosted Pages form would not really be an option at this time. We do have an optional "Notes" field in the customer record that could be used for this if you were to using the API.

   We are considering adding some additional customer data fields for a near-term project, however, so I will add Phone Number to the list of requested fields.

   Thanks for the feedback,
   Adam

   Even if you had an option to let us collect some data to write to the notes field, that'd be a BIG help.

   E.g., on our form we could collect a phone # then submit it as a value for the Notes Field.

   That makes sense to me.

   We're working on a project that will make it easier for physical-goods-delivery companies (like monthly beauty supplies, beer of the month clubs, etc) to use CheddarGetter, and I think having some additional optional fields in the hosted page is going to be a requirement for that. I would expect this development to happen within the next two months.

   Thanks again,
   Adam
