How does email verification work?

Make sure a user can access their email with a one-time code

If you turn on email verification in a verification flow, Vouchsafe will send a code to the user that they must enter to continue.

This can:

  • make sure the user isn't borrowing someone else's email address

  • catch when a request has been forwarded to someone else

  • dissuade automated fraud attempts

If you have already verified that the user can access their email elsewhere in your user journey, you may not need it to be enabled.
