Free vs Activation vs Rental (what to choose)

Free (public inbox)Good for quick tests. Higher block risk because numbers are reused.
Activation (one-time)Better OTP success for verification flows. Use when success matters.
RentalBest for re‑logins, password resets, and recovery. Keep access longer.
Simple ruleFree → Activation when blocked → Rental when you need continuity.

How it works

  • Choose the number type
    Free inbox = quick tests. Activation or Rental = typically better delivery and fewer blocks.

  • Select country + copy the number
    Pick the country you need, grab a number, and copy it exactly.

  • Request the code on Gmail/Google
    Enter the number on the Google verification screen and tap Send code. Avoid rapid retries.

  • Get the OTP in PVAPins
    Refresh once or twice. Copy the code as soon as it arrives and enter it immediately (OTPs expire fast).

  • If it fails, switch smart
    No code or rejection? Don’t spam resend. Switch the number/route, wait a bit, then try once again.

    • China number format (quick copy)

    • Country code: +86
    • International prefix (dialing out locally): 00
    • Trunk prefix (local): 0 (drop it when using +86)
    • Mobile pattern (common for OTP):1xx-XXXX-XXXX (most mobile prefixes are 13x–19x)
    • Mobile length used in forms:11 digits after +86 (no leading 0)

    Typical pattern (example):

    • Mobile: 138 1234 5678 → International: +86 138 1234 5678

    Quick tip: If the form rejects spaces/dashes, paste it as +8613812345678 (digits only).
