Summary

FusionAuth's Identity Pre-Verification feature addresses the challenges of traditional user registration by allowing email and phone number verification before account creation, enhancing data integrity and security. This approach helps eliminate "zombie" accounts, reduces registration spam, and improves user experience by ensuring only verified identities are stored, thus preventing duplicate accounts. It also aids in data privacy compliance by minimizing unverified personal information in the system. To implement this feature, users need FusionAuth 1.62.0, a licensed plan, configured messaging for verification, and tenant identities enabled. The process involves setting up an advanced registration form with a verification step and is supported by FusionAuth's Kickstart tool for easy setup across environments. While Identity Pre-Verification strengthens data quality and user authenticity, it does not verify real-world identity or completely prevent bots from triggering verification messages.
