WhatsApp is now a Verify channel

feature

You can now deliver one-time passcodes over WhatsApp, alongside SMS and email. WhatsApp OTPs are sent from the shared Bird Verify sender using the built-in authentication template, so there's no template or sender setup required. Support for your own dedicated senders is following shortly.

What's new

  • Enable WhatsApp per country from the Verify → Countries settings in the dashboard.
  • Automatic failover: if the primary channel can't deliver, Verify falls back through your configured channels before giving up.
  • API & SDK: whatsapp is now a valid value for a verification's channel, and country routes accept a whatsapp key in their per-channel settings. This is additive, with no breaking change.

Default routing change

Existing phone verifications now default to SMS → WhatsApp → email: SMS stays primary, with WhatsApp as an automatic fallback before email. Countries you've already customized are left untouched.
