In Russia, Mail.ru  is one of the most popular platforms offering email services, with only Gmail being a major competitor on a global scale. Setting up a Mail.ru account without a phone number is easy if you only need one email address.

However, when users require multiple accounts whether for signing up on various websites, separating personal and business emails, or managing bulk correspondence things become more complicated.

This article will explain both the standard registration process and how to create an account using specialized services.

Standard Registration Without a SIM Card

To begin, go to the official website and click Create email on the left side or Sign up at the top right corner. You’ll be directed to a page to fill in your personal details: first and last name, date of birth, gender, username, password, and email/mobile phone number. If you prefer, you can enter another email address as a contact option instead of a phone number.

Once all the required information is filled in, click “Register” to complete the process. This method is simple and works to obtain a limited number of profiles. However, if you need more than one email account, this approach may not be sufficient, as the service will eventually ask for your phone number.

So, how can you bypass SMS verification? If you need several email addresses, I recommend using a reliable solution, which will be explained below.

Using a Virtual Number to Create a Mail.ru Account Without a Phone Number

There are services available that provide virtual SIM cards for temporary SMS reception, which can help you create multiple profiles without restrictions. While there are many websites offering these services for free, my attempts to use them to register a Mail.ru account without a phone number were unsuccessful. The main issues I encountered were either the virtual number being already linked to another account or the website trying to charge me for the service.

That’s why I recommend using PVApins. Here, you can register an email address for as little as $0.18, which is more affordable than many other platforms. Receive SMS online with PVApins as it operates with several processing centers across different countries, offering virtual SIM cards from various locations. This allows users to easily create accounts on most social networks or messaging platforms. You can create a Mail.ru account with a Belgium virtual number through this service in just a few steps.

1. Go to PVAPins.com and create an account.

2.  Deposit funds into your PVApins account.

3.  Select the Belgium virtual number service Mail.ru.
4.  Copy the virtual number provided by PVAPins.
5.  Open Mail.ru and begin the registration process.
6.  When prompted for a phone number, paste the virtual number from      PVAPins.
7. Wait for the verification code to arrive at your virtual number.
8.  Return to PVAPins, refresh the page, and retrieve the verification code.
9.  Enter the code into Mail.ru to verify your number.
