Verify/OTP API

Secure customers on web or mobile.

Secure and authenticate customers on your apps using Two Factor Authentication in two simple steps.

MFA made easier.

Secure every interaction.

Verifying user identity for online and mobile transactions is a common challenge that platform administrators and software developers face. Financial transactions, users registrations, order confirmations and many other use cases require mobile numbers to be verified to be able to complete a transaction. This is a particularly sensitive and crucial step in most transactions not only from a secure access perspective but also because users will not be able to complete transactions and so directly impact revenue. Beem’s One Time Password (OTP) API allows software developers and platform owners to simplify the entire end to end process of verifying transactions by handling both the OTP generation and OTP verification steps in a secure and industry standard REST API.
