Mobile OTP Login for Magento 2

The conventional way of verifying customers may be convenient, but it is not secure. OTP verification provides better security. When a new user creates an account on your store, a one-time verification code is sent to his or her mobile number. The user needs to verify the code for the account to be verified.

Magento 2 OTP login provides an extra layer of security to your store to ensure only genuine customers create accounts and login to the store.

To prevent failed deliveries, you would want only verified customers to proceed with the checkout. You can enable mobile OTP for Cash on Delivery (COD) payment method to verify the mobile number and contact the customer to pick up their delivery.

You have the option to apply OTP verification for customers of specific countries only. This allows you to enable phone authentication for countries where you fear receiving fake registrations or orders while excluding other countries. Just select the countries you want to include in the verification list.

A time-based one-time password requires customers to use the code within the specified time. You can set an expiry duration as per your preference. Once the time reaches, the code won’t work, in which case, users can request another OTP. Firebase will send the same code if the first code has not been used within the specified time. A new code is sent when the 1st OTP has expired.
