Verify Api

Verify API enables you to verify a mobile phone number with two-factor authentication.

This is useful for:

• Protecting against spam, by preventing spammers from creating multiple accounts
• Monitoring suspicious activity, by forcing an account user to verify ownership of a number
• Ensuring that you can reach your users at any time because you have their correct phone number

Create a new Verify object through the API to start the verification process of a recipient. We will take care of creating a token and making sure that the message gets delivered to the user’s handset.
