Delivery Channels

The OTP API supports three robust delivery channels, allowing businesses to cater to diverse user preferences and ensure reliable OTP delivery.

Voice Call

Voice calls offer a reliable and inclusive way to deliver OTPs to users. This channel is particularly beneficial for individuals who prefer auditory communication or may not have access to text-based messaging platforms. Through automated calls, users receive their OTPs clearly and securely. The voice call channel supports multiple languages, ensuring global accessibility and catering to diverse user bases. Whether for confirming sensitive transactions or activating accounts, voice calls provide a personal and effective means of delivering OTPs.

SMS

SMS remains a universally available and straightforward method for delivering OTPs to users quickly. Ideal for scenarios where internet connectivity may be unreliable or unavailable, SMS ensures that users receive their OTPs promptly, regardless of location or device type. With minimal dependencies, this channel is highly dependable, making it suitable for use cases ranging from user authentication to transaction verification. The simplicity and ubiquity of SMS make it a critical component of any multi-channel OTP strategy.

WhatsApp

WhatsApp, a widely popular messaging platform, adds an extra layer of convenience and security to OTP delivery. Leveraging the platform’s global reach and end-to-end encryption, businesses can send secure OTPs directly to users via WhatsApp. This channel is ideal for tech-savvy users who prefer to receive communications on a platform they already trust and use frequently. With the ability to send custom notifications and authorization codes seamlessly, WhatsApp enhances user experience while maintaining robust security standards.

Flash Call

Flash Call is an innovative and ultra-fast OTP delivery channel that leverages missed calls for authentication. When a user initiates a request, the system places an instant call to their registered number, which automatically disconnects without requiring the user to answer. The system then verifies the incoming call’s phone number as the OTP, creating a seamless and cost-effective experience. Flash Call is ideal for users in areas with limited access to messaging services, providing a highly efficient and secure method for identity verification.

Email

Email remains a dependable and widely used method for delivering OTPs securely. Perfect for users who prefer to manage their communications through email, this channel ensures OTPs are delivered to registered email addresses with speed and reliability. Ideal for scenarios like account verification, password resets, and secure login processes, email delivery provides a straightforward and universally accessible solution. Additionally, businesses can include branding and customization in OTP emails, enhancing the user experience while maintaining security.
