SMS Authentication

With SOCIFI, you can easily authenticate your visitors thru text messages (SMS Authentication). This feature can be used for validation purposes to ensure the user has provided personal information when required by the law. You can also use SMS Authentication to collect valuable & valid phone numbers of your users.
 

Why SMS Authentication?

• SMS Authentication is an effective tool to minimize the unwanted activities of users on your network

• In some countries, you'll meet a statutory obligation to authenticate a user using a mobile number when entering Free public WiFi hotspots.

• The data about users will now include the mobile number, which raises the market value.

How SMS Authentication works?

SMS authentication doesn't require any complicated setup. Just one click on your SOCIFI Dashboard and SMS Authentication feature is activated. The customer is authenticated by his very first connection. Once authenticated he can continue to log in next time without authentication because we are able to verify his identity based on the MAC address. If desired, you are able to set how often you would like to verify the customer (every other month, annually etc.)

Step-By-Step

• Once connected to your Free WiFi, the new SMS authentication popup appears on the Splash page.

• The user must fill in their mobile number to receive one-time SMS message with the activation code.

• The user after receiving and entering the activation code can connect to your Free WiFi.
