What is P2A authentication?
P2A messaging (person-to-application) involves a mobile user sending an SMS to an application. Unlike Application-to-Person (A2P) messaging, which involves the business initiating the interaction, P2A requires the end-user to initiate contact
by sending an SMS to business-registered numbers, such as short codes or long codes. This process can be either user-initiated or triggered by apps running on the device, with the message being sent in the background without user intervention.
Benefits of P2A
Many businesses, including Apple for services like iMessage and FaceTime, utilize P2A SMS for two-factor authentication (2FA). This is due to several advantages:
Reach
P2A SMS leverages the ubiquitous nature of SMS, allowing businesses to connect with users globally.
Security
The passwordless format of P2A SMS provides robust user protection.
Frictionless experience
It optimizes conversion by enabling "zero-click" processes, with authentication occurring seamlessly in the background.
