SMS Verification

The SMS Verification field allows you to ask your form users to enter their mobile number and verify it using an SMS verification code sent from Snapforms.

You can use this field to:

confirm ticket purchases or appointment bookings
verify mobile numbers for enrolment or registration forms
send confirmation codes for orders, requests, signups, and more.

Tip: If you don’t have a specific requirement for verifying mobile numbers, you can use a short answer field to collect mobile numbers instead.

Basic setup

In the Form Fields panel (left-hand side), under Advanced Form Fields, click and drag the SMS Verification field onto your form.
Enter the field question or name.
If the SMS add-on has not been activated, click the Activate SMS button.(Organisation Admin users only).
(Optional) Tick if answering this question is compulsory.
Save & Close.
