As I understand it you will need to visit the dealer to have them add the key chip to the immobilizer computer. That will cost a fair bit, like $150 minimum maybe even $300. The dealer has to get a code from Porsche to make it work. At least that's what I've been seeing. I've only got one key and need to get something done for a second. It appears you can have a non electronic mechanical key, sometimes wrongly referred to as the valet key, which is acutely considered an extra key done which has the chip but no buttons to unlock the door or trunk(s). That might be cheeper to have setup.
