Frequently Asked Questions

What Is a One Time Password?

open vertical icon

A One Time Password or OTP is a security code designed to be used for a single login attempt, to minimize the risk of fraudulent login attempts and maintain high security. It’s a string of characters or numbers automatically generated and sent to the user’s phone via SMS, Voice, or Push message.

The OTP has become the standard method worldwide of enabling a login when special circumstances apply, such as validating a new account or confirming a transaction is legitimate.

How to Send One-Time Passwords?

open vertical icon

Providers like CM.com offer OTPs as a service, with a secure platform for receiving or initiating OTP requests, sending the OTP as a text or other channel, and verifying the OTP was entered correctly, so the transaction can go ahead.

The infrastructure for making use of one-time passwords integrates with your website or application using an API. This is how a site “knows” whether an entered OTP is correct or not, with safeguards like checking it’s within the time window.

What Are One Time Password Channels?

open vertical icon

There are several ways to send an OTP. Some give the option of receiving OTPs by email, although this tends to be less secure. Other providers even enable OTPs as voicemails, stating the PIN aloud when the customer checks the mailbox.

But by far the most common way to send OTPs is by Push or text messaging, typically an SMS or even WhatsApp message to the customer’s mobile phone.

How Does a One Time Password Work?

open vertical icon

An OTP is generated automatically as a semi-random number or string of characters. There is no way to predict what the OTP will be ahead of time. OTPs are valid for a single login session or transaction, enhancing security by reducing the risk of unauthorized access even if the password is intercepted. Once used, the OTP expires, ensuring it cannot be reused for future logins or transactions.

AI Is Getting Smarter and More Independent. How Do You Stay in Control?

More and more companies are rolling out AI agents that go far beyond generating content or answering simple questions. They handle customer requests, update systems, trigger workflows, and even complete transactions. This brings speed, efficiency, and relief from manual, repetitive work. But once AI starts doing instead of merely assisting, something fundamental shifts. You need more than clever technology. You need a clear way to stay in control of what it does, why it does it, and the limits within which it can operate. This is where AI governance comes in. Not as a tick-box compliance layer, but as a practical foundation that keeps AI predictable, explainable, and safe as it becomes more autonomous.

AI-agents in real estate: how to convert more leads and streamline the buyer journey

In Dubai’s fast-paced real estate market, companies receive hundreds of property inquiries every day. Buyers expect instant answers about availability, pricing, financing options, and next steps, often outside business hours and in multiple languages. For real estate agents, this creates an enormous workload: qualifying leads, answering (repetitive) questions, scheduling viewings, and chasing prospects who have become unresponsive. Without automation and the right workflows, real estate companies risk losing both efficiency and valuable opportunities. HALO, CM.com’s Agentic AI-powered platform, can transform these processes by streamlining the entire workflow. Besides, AI-agents work 24/7, deliver human-like responses, and handle inquiries instantly. They qualify leads, streamline routine tasks, and free up real estate agents to focus on what really matters: closing deals and building stronger client relationships.

AI Agents: The Accelerators of Conversational Commerce

The way consumers search for and process information online is rapidly changing thanks to AI. Where we used to type in search terms, scroll through dozens of results, and manually filter them, we are now getting used to having conversations. With ChatGPT, Google’s AI features, and other assistants, answers come faster and are more relevant. That same way of interacting is now taking over e-commerce at high speed. For retailers, this is the moment to step in: the webshop as we know it—where customers have to actively search themselves—is giving way to personal conversations that directly lead to action.
