These terms cover text messages from the PerkHour text message program.
Program name
PerkHour. Every message we send starts with “PerkHour:”.
What we text
For customers
- One-time verification codes when you enter your number to claim a perk.
- Ticket messages after you claim a perk: your ticket code and a link to your ticket.
- Perk alerts, only if you opt in: a text when a new perk goes live near the zone you chose.
For shops (merchants)
- Perk posting by text: you text us a perk, we reply with a summary for you to confirm, and you can pause or end it by text.
- Account messages about your perks and your PerkHour account.
How you sign up
- Codes: when you enter your number and ask for a code.
- Ticket messages: when you claim a perk after verifying your number.
- Perk alerts: only by ticking the alerts box when you claim. The box is unticked to start with, and you don’t need it to claim a perk.
- Shops: by verifying your mobile number in the PerkHour merchant portal and ticking the box to get texts about your perks and post perks by text.
See examples of each sign-up screen.
