Motive and Telefónica Advance GSMA Open Gateway Initiative, Jointly Showcasing Revenue Potential Through API-Based Phone Number Verification

 (BUSINESS WIRE)--Motive and Telefónica have successfully completed a proof of concept (PoC) showcasing seamless authentication using GSMA Open Gateway’s Number Verification API. Debuted at the Google Cloud booth during Mobile World Congress Barcelona 2025, this solution enables secure authentication without SMS-OTPs, reducing fraud risks and improving user experience.
