Coverage with fallback

Legacy number verification was built for a world without SIM-swap fraud.

Number Verification 2.0 replaces the phishable, slow OTP with a silent, carrier-verified possession check — so you get stronger security and higher conversion at the same time.
Stops SIM-swap & ATO
Verification is tied to the live SIM. A swapped or ported SIM fails the check, preventing account-takeover attacks.
No SMS-pumping exposure
Because no SMS is ever sent, there is no artificial-traffic-inflation attack surface — eliminating 5–15% of spend lost to OTP pumping fraud.
Frictionless by design
Users never leave your flow to copy a code. Onboarding and login complete in a single tap, lifting conversion on verification-gated funnels.
Lower cost at scale
In high-cost geographies like the US, silent carrier verification typically runs materially cheaper per successful check than international SMS OTP.
Phishing-proof
There is no code to enter, so there is nothing for a fake login page to steal. The possession factor is proven at the network, not by the user.
Always-on fallback
When a device is on Wi-Fi-only or an unsupported carrier, NumberVerify2 falls back automatically to WhatsApp or SMS OTP — one API, full coverage.

Silent verification in four steps

One API call. The carrier does the heavy lifting. Your backend gets a signed, trustworthy result.

Request
One API call. The carrier does the heavy lifting. Your backend gets a signed, trustworthy result.
2
Carrier check
The request is routed over the device's mobile data so the carrier can confirm the SIM behind the number is present and active.
3
Signed result
A signed verification token is returned in 200–800 ms — verified or not, plus SIM-swap risk signals.
4
Authorize
Your backend validates the token and lets the user through — or steps up with fallback OTP when needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Number Verify 2.0?

Number Verify 2.0 is a network-based authentication solution that verifies whether a user's mobile number matches the number associated with their mobile network connection. It can authenticate users without requiring them to manually enter an SMS OTP, helping enterprises provide faster and more seamless login and verification experiences.

How does Number Verification 2.0 work?

Number Verification 2.0 uses mobile network signals and operator capabilities to verify a user's phone number. Instead of relying solely on an SMS OTP, the service can perform network-based verification, reducing user friction while helping businesses confirm mobile number ownership.

What is the difference between Number Verify 2.0 and SMS OTP verification?

SMS OTP requires users to receive and manually enter a one-time password, while Number Verify 2.0 can verify the user's mobile number through network-based authentication.
