📘 Explanation / व्याख्या
An OTP (One Time Password) is a password that can be sent to a user’s phone via SMS or email for authentication purposes.
एक OTP (वन टाइम पासवर्ड) ऐसा पासवर्ड है, जिसे प्रमाणीकरण (Authentication) के लिए SMS या ईमेल के माध्यम से उपयोगकर्ता के फोन पर भेजा जा सकता है।
OTP ensures that the person performing the transaction or login is the authorized user.
OTP यह सुनिश्चित करता है कि लेन-देन या लॉगिन करने वाला व्यक्ति अधिकृत उपयोगकर्ता है।
This method is widely used in online banking, UPI transactions, and e-commerce platforms.
यह विधि ऑनलाइन बैंकिंग, UPI लेन-देन और ई-कॉमर्स प्लेटफॉर्म पर व्यापक रूप से उपयोग की जाती है।
