If you have selected Msg91 as your SMS Gateway and set DLT Template as your API, the OTP Text Settings will have the following fields.

4. Test SMS API
The extension features test extension functionality of sending OTP message. Simply enter the testing number and message to receive as a part of testing to check whether the functionality of sending OTP is working.
5. COD Verification on Checkout
Once customers add products to their cart, proceed to checkout and select cash on the delivery payment method, they are required to verify their mobile number through OTP. On click of the “Send OTP” button, the extension will send OTP to the billing address mobile number.
Once you get OTP, you have to add it in the text box and click the button to verify your mobile number. Else you can wait or use the “Resend OTP” button to send OTP again.
During the Cash on delivery verification process, if the customer aborts the operation and tries to proceed further, the extension will show an error.
6. Phone Number Validation
The admin can validate the mobile number based on the country.
● Show or Hide Country Flag in Mobile Number Field: Enable phone number validation from here.
● Country Digits: Set phone number digits for various countries.
Once the admin sets the phone number validation from the backend, it will be activated in the front end.
