Hi, Sure.
This is particularly useful for validating user's phone number ( At new user signup page, At online order checkout form, for implementing 2 factor authentication etc etc use cases.) by sending One Time password to the user.
With traditional approach, Website sends an SMS with 'One Time Password' ( OTP ) OR triggers an automated call to validate 'phone number' entered by the user.
- Now every sms costs to the business, moreover cost varies with the sms sent to different countries
- There is a risk involved, in sms delivery getting delayed / not delivered.
With mOTP,
One time password is sent to user, via a Missed Call. ( Which doesn't cost anything )
Moreover, mOTP is able to push One Time Passwords to more than 150 countries.
