Another way would be sending a fax but I suppose that takes more time to setup and can go wrong easier then having a page open that automatically refreshes or sending an email. So yes your right. The only thing I would remove is the Ip restriction cause in case their IP changes the site has to be updated and those things can take longer then the wanted (taken from the moment they find out till the moment you changed it).
