SMS Terms
Porch sends text messages for one reason: to deliver a one-time passcode when you sign in with your phone number. We don't send marketing, promotional, reminder or group texts by SMS.
How you opt in
You opt in by typing your own phone number on Porch's sign-in screen and tapping send my code. Nobody else can request codes on your behalf, and we never text a number you didn't enter yourself.
The message you'll receive
Codes expire after a few minutes. If you didn't request one, you can ignore it.
