Messaging Policy
How core.club uses SMS text messaging: what we send, how you opt in, and how to opt out. core.club sends transactional text messages only, never marketing.
Who sends these messages
core.club is a club and community management platform. All text messages described on this page are sent by core.club on behalf of an existing member who is inviting someone to their club or sports pool.
What messages we send
We send invitation text messages only. When a club administrator or member invites someone to their club or to a sports pool on core.club, we send that person a one-time SMS with a link to join. We do not send marketing or promotional text messages, and this number is not used for account login or verification codes.
- An invitation to join a club on core.club, with a link to accept
- An invitation to join a specific sports pool within a club, with a link to accept
How consent works
These messages are only sent when an existing core.club member invites someone they know. Before an invitation is sent by text, the member doing the inviting enters the recipient's mobile number and confirms they have that person's permission to text them. At that step this disclosure is shown:
"By inviting by text, you confirm this person agreed to receive a one-time SMS invitation from core.club. They can reply STOP to opt out. Message and data rates may apply."
The recipient receives a single invitation and can reply STOP at any time to receive no further messages. Consent is not a condition of any purchase.
Sample messages
- "Derek invited you to join Sunrise Yoga on core.club! Join: https://core.club/invite/… Reply STOP to opt out."
- "Derek invited you to the Week 1 NFL pool at Sunrise Yoga on core.club! Join: https://core.club/invite/… Reply STOP to opt out."
Message frequency and rates
Volume is low. In most cases a person receives a single invitation text when they are invited. An administrator may occasionally resend a pending invitation. Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and plan.
How to opt out
You can opt out at any time by replying STOP to any text message from core.club. You will receive one confirmation message and then no further texts. Reply HELP to any message for help. You can also turn off SMS in your notification settings, or remove your phone number from your account.
