Hi,
there's a free phone verification using facebook.
It's account kit.

What do you guys think?
- h43k3r 10y agoThis seems interesting. Do you know of any app currently using this. I would like to quickly try it out before the hassle of setting it up myself.
- kevindeasis 10y agoSorry, I don't recall businesses using account kit. However, it's pretty easy to do a basic setup.
- jaxondu 10y agoIts free up to 100K SMS per month. Can find any pricing detail from Facebook.
- kevindeasis 10y agoSorry, I forgot there was a limit.Good catch though!
- chambo622 10y agoSimilar to Twitter's Digits, which has been around for a while and seems quite popular. https://get.digits.com https://get.digits.com
- everfree 10y agoWhy is it free?
- kevindeasis 10y agoTwitter built fabric and it's free because they say "they want more developers using their platform" to help them with building apps
- k_ 10y agoAs great at this probably is, I don't think adding yet another dependency to facebook is a good thing. I'm getting tired of services that only accept facebook users. Having a facebook login or any other facebook service requiring the user to be a facebook user is not bad in itself (and can be pretty useful), but it should _always_ have an alternative. That's why I think projects like Dial2Verify Twilio are a great thing. They're still not perfect though, as some said here on HN.
