This update brings powerful new features designed to enhance user authentication, improve security, and make logging in easier than ever, including the new SMS Login feature. Whether you’re running a membership site, an eCommerce store, or a business platform, Magic Login 2.4 ensures your users can log in quickly and securely.
What’s New in Magic Login 2.4?
📱 SMS Login – Login Links via SMS (Pro)
We’re introducing SMS Login, allowing users to receive magic login links via SMS. This feature enhances accessibility and provides a frictionless login method, particularly for mobile users. To enable SMS login, we’ve integrated with Twilio, one of the most widely used SMS platforms. You can set up Twilio easily by following our step-by-step guide.
To further improve the experience, we developed Code Login, which eliminates the need to click a link by allowing users to enter the login code sent to their email or phone. This keeps the authentication process seamless and secure. Learn more
🚀 Code Login – Flexible Passwordless Authentication
Magic Login now supports Code Login, allowing users to log in by entering a secure login code sent to their email or phone number instead of clicking a magic link. This feature was developed as a natural extension of SMS Login, providing an even shorter and more convenient authentication method. By entering a secure login code, users can quickly access their accounts while maintaining the high security standards of passwordless authentication. Learn more
🎯 Domain Restriction for Registration (Pro)
Need to limit registrations to specific email domains? With this new feature, you can now restrict user sign-ups to emails from a predefined list of domains—ideal for private communities, corporate websites, or educational platforms.

If you’re using FluentCRM, you can now send magic login links directly through FluentCRM’s automation workflows. This integration makes it easier to provide instant access to your users via automated email campaigns. Learn more
