How to Sign Up (It’s as Easy as 1-2!)

If you want to join the text list, here is all you need to do:

1. Type your phone number into the sign-up box.
2. Click the sign-up button.

By doing those two things, you are telling MarketBeat, “Yes, you can send me texts at this number.”

What Happens After You Sign Up?

Once you’re in, MarketBeat will send you texts from time to time. Some of these might be sent by a special computer system that automatically dials phones and sends messages (like a robot helper doing the texting for them).

The messages you receive will include things like:

• Stock alerts (updates about company shares)
• News stories (happenings in the money world)
• Partner advertisements/offers (special deals from MarketBeat’s friends)

The number of texts you get will not be the same every day—sometimes more, sometimes less.

Important Points to Remember

Important:

• Your phone company might charge you for sending or receiving these texts, or use your internet data. This is what “message and data rates may apply” means.
• Saying “yes” to these texts is not required if you want to buy anything from MarketBeat. You can still purchase goods or services without signing up.
• Texts are sent periodically, and the frequency will vary.

How to Get Help or Stop the Texts

Need a hand? Just text the word HELP to MarketBeat and they’ll assist you.

Want to quit the text list? You have two simple options:

1. Reply with the word STOP to any text message you get from MarketBeat.
2. Visit their mailing preferences page and unsubscribe there.

You can do this at any time—no questions asked!

FAQ

What is SMS?

SMS stands for Short Message Service, but we just call it “text messaging.” It’s the way phones send short written messages to each other.

Will I be charged for these texts?

Maybe. Your phone company might count these texts against your plan or charge a small fee. That’s what “message and data rates may apply” means.

How often will I get messages?

It varies. Sometimes you might get several, sometimes none for a while. They call this “message frequency will vary.”

Do I have to sign up to buy something from MarketBeat?

No! Consent to get texts is not a condition of purchasing any goods or services. You can be a customer without ever getting a text.

How do I stop the messages?

Just reply STOP to any message you receive, or go to the mailing preferences page and unsubscribe. Easy!
