SMS login sends guests a one-time passcode (OTP) by text — they enter their phone number, get the code, type it in, and they're online.
What you'll need
- An SMS-capable sending number (managed by MyWiFi, or your own Twilio account on Growth plans and up)
Steps
- Open the Login tab and enable SMS.
- Click Setup next to SMS to choose or configure the sending number for this campaign — MyWiFi's Messaging tab now handles number selection and multi-number assignment (see Messaging category).
- On Growth plans and up, you can connect BYO Twilio — your own Twilio account, so sending runs and bills under your account instead of MyWiFi's managed pool.
- Guests enter their phone number and receive a one-time passcode by text to get online.
- Save your campaign.
Best practice: every OTP text sent by MyWiFi automatically includes carrier-required opt-out language — you don't need to add this yourself. See A2P 10DLC — the mandatory US carrier vetting of your business before it may send SMS — in the Messaging category for background on why this exists.
