This feature enables you to leave out a verification_policy field in the request. If you include a verification_policy in the request, it will override the fixed routing settings for that particular request.

The country is determined based on a phone number prefix. If a phone number is not provided, this feature can't be used.

You can specify up to two verification methods for each country. SMS will automatically be used as the third fallback method. If you prefer not to use SMS, contact our Customer Support Team.

Example

In the provided example, depending on the end user's country, the verification processes are handled as follows:

• United States: Verification starts with Silent Verify. If Silent Verify fails, it tries with WhatsApp. If both methods fail, SMS is used as the default final verification method.
• Brazil: Verification starts with SMS, then email. No further attempts if email fails since SMS was already the first method.
• France: Verification starts with Push Verify and then SMS if needed.

Default fallback times

This feature uses the following default fallback times:
