Verification codes now work when the browser drops cookies

Fix

Week of September 20, 2026

When a prospect sends their first message, they confirm their phone number or email with a 6-digit code. Some browsers — Safari with tracking prevention, and privacy browsers in general — discard cookies between the code being sent and the prospect typing it in. When that happened, a correct code sent the prospect back to your homepage and their message never reached the advocate.

Verification no longer depends on the browser remembering anything. A correct code now sends the message every time, and an expired code takes the prospect back to the “send me a code” step instead of the homepage.
