Top Four Reasons Why You Aren’t Verifying Your Redtail CRM Clients And How To Overcome Them
At DTS Verify, we want to help you verify your customers during a transaction request. Not every wealth management company has implemented a system that enables rapid, documented verification. We have compiled a list of the top four reasons why you haven’t already implemented a second factor.

You don’t know that you need to.
The top reason why you aren’t verifying your customers during a transaction request is that you simply don’t know you need to. Many wealthy advisors do not realize the risks they’re taking when they only authenticate a request with a single factor.
Knowledge-based authentication relies on something the customer knows (like their mother’s maiden name or the last 4 digits of their social security number). Unfortunately, this information can be known by a criminal attempting to steal money from your client.
What you need is a second factor to add to their knowledge-based verification. The most convenient second factor is something the client physically has, namely their cellphone. Sending a verification code to their phone will act as a second factor.
Now that you know that you should be using two-factor authentication with every transaction request, how can you implement a simple and secure way of accomplishing it?
Enter DTS Verify - an online service that integrates with Redtail to allow you to rapidly verify your customers with a second factor by sending them a text message with a verification code. The phone number comes directly from your CRM, so you don’t have to look it up or text them manually.
2. You think it is too complicated to set up.
Maybe you already knew that you should be using two-factor authentication for all your client transaction requests, but you were thinking it would be too complicated to set up the process.
Enter DTS Verify - setting up an account only takes a few minutes, and you can be texting your first client a verification code in only a few minutes.
3. You think it is too time-consuming during a phone request.
Maybe you were already planning to text your clients when they make a transaction request, but you thought it would be too cumbersome and time-consuming to do during the phone call.
Enter DTS Verify—just log into your account in the morning, and you can verify a customer in just a few seconds. All you need to do is search for their name and click verify. Then choose from a list of on-file phone numbers and send them a six-digit code. If they can relay the code to you, then you have completed one of the factors.
4. You think it’s too expensive.
Do you think a system like DTS Verify is too expensive? It may be a monthly recurring expense, but in the long run, it can save you thousands of dollars and your company’s reputation. DTS Verify is priced to make it affordable for a firm of any size. You only pay for the number of licenses you need, and you can add or remove them at any time. The service is also month-to-month with no hidden fees. Simply pay a flat rate for each text message sent ($0.02 as of 2/9/2026) and a nominal license fee per user each month.
