We built an in-house solution for this and the biggest issue was bots opening the link. You will be surprised by the number of bots / email providers opening your links. Sometimes after just a few minutes, sometimes hours later. So even with a short expiration, there’re still cases where bots are faster than humans.
We had to implement a crappy algorithm to detect if a request is authentic. So far it works and no complaints from customers yet.
- amadeuspagel 6y agoI just tried requesting the email again and got it immidiately. Could you check your spam folder? And if you find it there, mark it as "not spam"? Bots opening links shouldn't be a problem, because MagicSquared sets a cookie when you request an email to ensure that you can only verify your email from the device that you requested it with.
