Business Challenge. Our customer sends millions of one-time password notifications every month. It’s part of their security protocol. New app users have to log in with a verification code that is messaged to them. This secure login is an integral part of their every day and on board processing. It’s also the first step new users have to take. The A2P process needed improvement because a large percentage of the messages were not delivered. Many new users never received the message at all and promising customers got blocked from the app. App operations and developers were looking for a way to increase retention by making sure that sign ins receive their A2P message on time and on the correct device. Not only that, but they did not want to pay for any undelivered or unfulfilled messages.

Technical Challenge: Once the A2P SMS fired and sent the verification code message, operations lost control of delivery. From a results standpoint, the app lost track of their onboarding funnel. This made the sign in process a blockage to growth. The client wanted to be able to develop more effective methods to track and price these SMS. They also wanted to ensure timely delivery and a higher success rate to take control of this part of the onboard funnel.
