Available in flag-for-spain

In a nutshell

Enhancing security with seamless authentication

The service verifies that the user is using a device with the same mobile phone number as the one which is declared for this user.

It also makes it possible for the application consuming this API to get the number itself by returning the phone number associated with the authenticated user’s access token.

As the Number Verification API uses the Orange mobile network, it offers strong authentication with enhanced security with minimum user friction.

Benefits

Enhanced Security and Fraud Prevention

By utilizing mobile network mechanisms, the API provides reliable authentication without depending on vulnerable methods like One Time Password SMS. This minimizes risks such as phishing, SIM swapping, and account takeover attacks, creating a safer environment for digital transactions.

Improved User Experience and Conversion Rates

The API reduces friction in essential processes like account creation, login, and transaction validation. Its seamless operation allows users to have an uninterrupted experience, resulting in higher conversion rates and lower abandonment during critical interactions.

Versatile Integration Across Use Cases

The API is designed for various applications, supporting industries like banking, e-commerce, and healthcare. It enables secure account recovery, quick logins on new devices, and validation of sensitive transactions, making it a flexible solution for businesses looking to improve both security and user satisfaction.

Use cases

App onboarding (banking apps, social media, ride-sharing, mobile wallets, etc.)

One Time Password (OTP) SMS is commonly used to verify that the user has the mobile device linked to the registered phone number. However, this can complicate the user experience. Instead, the app can utilize the Number Verification API for a smoother authentication process.

Application password reset

The user experience typically depends on OTP SMS. Similar to the onboarding process, the app can use the Number Verification API for a more seamless mobile device authentication.

App login

Rather than using a username and password, the app can opt for seamless authentication of the mobile device.
