SPENDS MONEY. Starts a phone-number verification: generates a one-time code, stores only a keyed hash of it, and sends it by SMS or by a voice call that speaks it. Billed exactly like a normal SMS or API call: the route price, plus a platform fee of 2% of the carrier cost, capped at $0.001 per call or message (0.5%, same cap, when the traffic runs over your own SIP trunk; no fee when the carrier cost is 0). Returns a verification_id (never the code on a live key). The code expires after expiry_seconds (default 600), allows 5 check attempts and approves once. Rate limited: 5 starts per number per hour, 30 second resend cooldown, 20 per number range per hour, and 1000 per account per day; embargoed, high-risk premium and do-not-contact destinations are refused. A test key simulates the send and returns testCode so the flow can be completed. Requires the verify:write scope.
