Case Study: PinU authenticates new users and scales secure onboarding with Vonage Verify API

PinU Relies on Vonage Verify API to Authenticate New Users and Enable Contextual Communications.

PinU, a local iOS messaging app that lets users chat with nearby friends, needed a scalable way to verify new users by phone number and confirm their identity as the app grew. To solve this, PinU used the Vonage Verify API to handle registration-based authentication and support secure connections between users.

Vonage implemented the Verify API with minimal effort, allowing PinU to verify users via SMS or voice codes and manage user status without building its own backend. The result was a faster launch, engineering time saved for two other core features, lower communications costs by paying only for successful verifications, and a solution that can scale globally.
