Verification Code TTL Settings for SuiteCommerce Security

SuiteCommerce Email Verification allows businesses to enhance the security of their online platforms by requiring customers to verify their email addresses. This article explores key settings for managing how email verification operates in SuiteCommerce-enabled sites.

How to Enable Email Verification?

Enabling the SuiteCommerce Email Verification feature ensures that customers must verify their email addresses before completing registration or checkout as guests. This is a straightforward toggle setting in the Advanced > Email Verification section of your admin panel.

Verification Code Validity

The Verification Code TTL (Time-To-Live) setting determines how long a verification code remains active before expiring. By default, this duration is set to 300 seconds, after which customers must request a new code if they haven’t verified their email.

UI location: Advanced > Email Verification

Code Request Interval

This parameter sets the minimum time interval (in seconds) that must elapse before a customer can request a new verification code. Like the TTL, the default setting here is also 300 seconds, which helps prevent overuse by customers retrying submission too frequently.
