SCG Features & Benefits
SCG main features:
- Length of codes: 4 to 100 characters *
- Type of codes: Numeric, alphanumeric, arbitrary alphabet **
Properties of codes:
- Verification information included in the same code.
- Doesn't require storage of generated codes.
- Unpredictable codes using cryptographic techniques and not arbitrary algorithms.
- Level of security can be calculated precisely based on the code's length.
Applications:
- Coupon codes generation for business & marketing campaigns.
- PIN generation.
- Phone cards identification for prepaid cards in software like Asterisk.
- Fiscal codes.
- Obfuscation of numbers for different purposes.
- Integration with Twitter for promotional purposes (i.e: autoresponder, autoreply).

* Smaller lengths are used to generate random codes but they don't offer the required security since guessing a code is easier.
** Please contact us for specific requirements in the case of code with an arbitrary alphabet.
