About this service

Promise-A-Day is a free SMS subscription service that delivers one daily Bible verse to subscribers who have opted in. The service is operated by Alan Buhler and is available at getapromise.com.

Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old and a resident of the United States to subscribe. By subscribing, you confirm that the phone number you provide belongs to you and that you are authorized to receive SMS messages on it.

How to subscribe

Enter your phone number at getapromise.com and click "Get a daily promise." You will receive a confirmation SMS and must reply Y to complete your subscription. No messages are sent until you confirm.

Message frequency and charges

Subscribers receive approximately 1 message per day. Msg & data rates may apply depending on your carrier plan.

How to unsubscribe

Text STOP to our number at any time to cancel immediately. Text HELP for help. You can also email us to request removal.

Acceptable use

This service is provided for personal, non-commercial use. You may not use it to harass others or attempt to circumvent rate limits or security controls.

Disclaimers

Promise-A-Day is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. Bible content is sourced from publicly available translations and is provided for inspirational purposes only. We do not guarantee uninterrupted delivery — SMS delivery depends on Twilio and your carrier.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Promise-A-Day and its operator shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of this service.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
