Phone Verify

Make an automated call to any valid phone number and playback a unique security code.

Use this API to verify personal details, help reduce fraud and in authentication systems for implementing multi-factor (MFA and 2FA) authentication. Supply your own security code for use in TOTP systems (the most common standard for 2FA implementations) or let us auto generate a secure random code. To then verify a delivered code you can either implement this on your side or use use the verify security code endpoint.

The telephony APIs can operate in two modes, you can place your calls using our VOIP service or your can provide your own SIP trunk. Using your own SIP trunk allows you to use your own DIDs. You can also setup voice mail and any other features your VOIP service provider might have.
