How visitors opt in
OpenVIP is an open-house sign-in app used by real estate agents. When a visitor arrives at an open house, they complete a short sign-in form on the agent's iPad — typically their name, email, and phone number. The form includes a clearly labeled, unchecked-by-default consent checkbox:
The visitor must affirmatively check this box to receive messages. If they leave it unchecked, they can still sign in, but no follow-up text or email is sent. Consent is recorded with the sign-in and is not a condition of viewing the home or any purchase.
What messages are sent
A visitor who opts in receives a single follow-up message from the agent they met, shortly after the open house — a brief thank-you with the listing details. There is no recurring campaign and no bulk or promotional blasting. An agent may reply individually if a conversation continues, just like a normal text from a person.
Message frequency & rates
- Frequency: typically one follow-up message per open-house sign-in.
- Cost: message and data rates may apply, depending on the visitor's mobile carrier and plan.
- Carriers: supported on major U.S. carriers. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
How to opt out or get help
A recipient can stop messages at any time by replying STOP to any text; they will receive a confirmation and no further messages. Replying HELP returns contact information for assistance. Recipients can also email support@openvip.app to be removed.
Privacy
Phone numbers and contact details collected at a sign-in belong to the agent who collected them and are processed by OpenVIP on the agent's behalf. We do not sell, rent, or share them, and we do not use them for our own marketing. For full details, see our Privacy Policy.
