Hi David! As an iOS dev I can't wait to try this out on mobile. Although until then I have a noob question: I've noticed some services that offer similar email button sign ins, but the emails were delayed: sometimes by a few minutes, other times by a few hours. If you can comment on it, what are some ways that Magic works to optimize that delay between button and email trigger? Thanks!
hey peterkos, great question! We ensure reliable delivery times through a variety of strategies:
1. We strive to maintain a good email domain reputation which is a huge factor for email deliverability and speed
2. We pick our email service provider carefully. Current we use Postmark which carters towards transactional emails and has the fastest delivery time to all inboxes.
3. We have redundancy mechanisms in place that allows us to switch between email providers (SendGrid and MailGun) on demand.
Hope that answers your question!
Thanks, it does!
