How it works

Pick your Shell number type.

If you’re doing quick testing, a shared/free number might work. But for better success, especially if you’ll need access again, choose Instant Activation (private) or a Rental number (repeat access). These options are less likely to be blocked and usually receive Shell OTP codes more reliably.

Choose the country + number.

Select your required country, get a number, and copy it correctly. Use the clean format: +CountryCodeNumber (example: +447911123456) or digits-only if needed (447911123456). Avoid spaces, dashes, or extra zeros.

Request the OTP on Shell.

Enter the number during signup, login, or verification on Shell, then tap Send code. Don’t spam requests; send once, wait 60–120 seconds, and resend only if necessary.

Receive the SMS on your dashboard.

The OTP will appear in your PVAPins inbox or dashboard. Copy the code immediately and enter it back on the Shell before it expires.
