The Central Bank of the UAE has mandated the phase-out of SMS and email OTPs next year. But this isn’t just about compliance. OTPs slow your users down, drive costs up, and leave real gaps in your fraud defenses.
Ideem helps you switch to modern, device-bound authentication with speed and confidence, so you stay compliant while giving your customers a smoother, safer experience.
