Creating a Customer Account Using the One-Time Password (OTP)
Overview
The One-Time Password (OTP) method for creating customer accounts is a modern, secure, and user-friendly approach that simplifies the registration process. This method eliminates the need to create and remember a password, thereby reducing friction during account creation and enhancing security.
Benefits
1. Enhanced Security: OTPs are time-sensitive and unique, making it difficult for unauthorized users to gain access.
2. Simplified User Experience: Customers don't need to remember a password, which can improve the registration and login process.
3. Reduced Support Queries: Fewer password reset requests saves the customer time, and can reduce the burden on customer support.
How It Works
1. Create An Account:
- Navigate to Sweet As Hell Designs' "Customer Account" Log in/ Sign Up Page.
- Computer Users: click on the avatar on the upper right corner of the screen.
- Mobile Users: Tap the three line "hamburger" icon in the upper left of your mobile screen, and then tap "log in" in the lower left corner of your screen.
- After being redirected to the "Customer Account" Log in/Sign up screen, enter your email address in the provided field and click the "Create Account" button.
2. OTP Generation and Delivery:
- An OTP is generated by the system. This OTP is a unique code and is valid for only one login session.
- This OTP is sent to the email address that you provide.
3. Enter the OTP:
- Check your email for the OTP.
- Return to Sweet As Hell Designs' "Customer Account" Log in/ Sign Up Page, enter the OTP in the field provided.
- After entering the OTP, click the "Verify" button.
4. Account Creation Confirmation:
- By providing your email, you have effectively created an account, any additional information (e.g. your address) is optional.
5. Future Logins:
- For future logins, you can enter your email you initially used, receive a new OTP, and gain access to your account without needing to remember a password.
