FraudLabs Pro SMS Verification extension helps merchants to authenticate the customer’s phone number by sending them an SMS for verification. You can use this extension to automate the phone verification if, for example, the order was flagged for review after the checkout process. To begin with the verification process, FraudLabs Pro will email the customer with a Verification Page URL to complete the SMS Verification. On the page, the customer have to enter a valid phone number for receiving an SMS (Short Message Service) that contains the OTP (One Time Passcode). Upon receiving the SMS message, the customer have to fill in the OTP on the verification page to complete the verification. In a nutshell, this is a type of Two-Factor authentication that will certainly lessen your burdens to manually contact them for further verification purpose. The image below shows an example of the verification page.
