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

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

  • Request the code on Medium
    If Medium asks for phone verification, paste the number and tap Send code (avoid rapid retries).

  • Check your PVAPins inbox
    Refresh once or twice, copy the OTP as soon as it arrives, and enter it right away (codes expire fast).

  • If it fails, switch smart
    Don’t spam resend. Switch the number/route, wait a bit, then try once again.

  • Costa Rica number format (quick copy)

    • Country code: +506
    • International prefix (dialing out locally): 00
    • Trunk prefix (local): none (Costa Rica uses fixed 8-digit numbers)
    • Mobile pattern (common for OTP): mobile numbers commonly start with 5, 6, 7, or 8
    • Mobile length used in forms:8 digits after +506

    Common pattern (example):

    • Mobile: 8765 4321 → International: +506 8765 4321

    Quick tip: If the form rejects spaces/dashes, paste it as +50687654321 (digits only).
