# Phone Verification

> Request and verify a phone number for the customer's card account

Phone verification is required before card creation. There are two endpoints:

1. **`POST /v1/yativo-card/customers/:yativoCardId/phone/request-verification`** — send OTP to phone
2. **`POST /v1/yativo-card/customers/:yativoCardId/phone/verify`** — verify the OTP
