Secure Authentication with One-Time Password
Figensoft OTP SMS service provides fast, reliable, and automated security and user authentication for digital transactions. It offers strong protection against unauthorized access during online logins, payment confirmations, and critical transaction steps.
What is OTP SMS and How Does it Work Step-by-Step?
OTP (One-Time Password) is a short-term, single-use 'digital key' used to verify the digital identity of your users. As one of the most common and trusted methods of Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), it creates a critical security layer against cyberattacks and unauthorized access on online platforms.
Its primary purpose is to verify that the person performing a transaction is indeed that person, via their registered mobile phone number. This simple yet powerful method has become a standard security procedure, especially for sensitive transactions such as user login, password reset, online payments, and money transfers.
User Action: Your user initiates a secure transaction on your website or mobile app (for example, clicking the ‘Log In’ or ‘Confirm Payment’ button).
Automatic Code Generation: This action triggers your system in the background. Your system instantly generates a unique and random verification code (typically 4-6 digits) via the Figensoft API.
Instant SMS Sending: This generated one-time password is sent as a high-priority SMS to the user's registered mobile phone number within seconds.
Verification and Access: The user enters the code received on their phone into the corresponding field on the screen. The system confirms the code's validity and allows the user to securely complete the transaction.
Although both use SMS technology, OTP SMS and standard Bulk SMS (Marketing/Information) are completely different in terms of purpose, operation, and technology. You can find the key differences in the table below to help you choose the right solution for your business.
| Feature | OTP SMS (One-Time Password) | Standard Bulk SMS |
|---|---|---|
| Trigger | Automated by User Action (API Call) | Manual Start or Timer (Via Panel) |
| Speed and Priority | High Priority, Instant Transmission | Standard Priority |
| Message Content | Unique, Short-Term, and Single-Use Code | Fixed, promotional, or informational text. |
| Legal Requirement | Since it is operational, IYS permission is not required. | For commercial purposes, Message Management System (MMS) permission is mandatory. |
| Integration | It usually works via API integration. | It usually works with a web panel, Excel add-in, or API. |

OTP SMS account verification has become a fundamental security standard not just for a single technology giant, but for businesses of all sizes and sectors. At Figensoft, we understand the unique needs of different business models and offer flexible and powerful OTP solutions tailored to each industry. Here are some of the areas where our platform is most frequently used:
Finance and Banking: In this sector, where the protection of customer assets and sensitive data is paramount, OTP (Online Transaction Processing) is a necessity. We prevent financial fraud by providing instant verification at every critical step, such as logging into internet banking, approving EFT/wire transfers, accessing card information, and changing passwords.
E-commerce and Retail: Customer account security is fundamental to brand loyalty. OTP SMS, used during new account creation, password resets, address changes, and especially for high-value purchases, both prevents fraudulent accounts and ensures your customers can shop securely.
Healthcare Services: Patient data confidentiality (GDPR compliance) is of critical importance. The On-the-Government Transaction (OTP) used for accessing online appointment systems, patient portals, and screens displaying laboratory results guarantees that only authorized individuals can access personal health data.
Online Services and Membership Platforms: On membership-based services such as content platforms, educational portals, or social networks, OTPs are the most effective way to protect user accounts. By blocking bots and spam memberships, they improve the quality of your platform and thwart account hijacking attempts.
