SMS OTP (One Time Password) - The new utility for secure deliveries
August 3, 2022
The COVID19 crisis has required an adaptation of the operating modes of companies, in particular the systematic practice of barrier gestures and the generalization of teleworking. But there are also adaptations that have given rise to new practices that improve processes, such as the topic of the day: SMS OTP as a way to secure your deliveries.
What is SMS OTP?
OTP for One Time Password, the SMS OTP is a single-use code generated by the company for its customers to authenticate themselves. This code transmitted by SMS is used in different sectors, from banks to secure a purchase, to mobile applications when registering for a service.
How does SMS OTP guarantee deliveries?
Many delivery companies have already opted for this product under the current circumstances. Shortly before your delivery person comes to drop off your package, you receive a one-time OTP SMS. When the driver arrives, all you have to do is give him the code that establishes a security link between you and him.
Many delivery companies such as Fedex, Chronopost DHL or Amazon do not necessarily have the delivery notice signed, but use these codes to validate receipt.
