How it works

Pick your Cathay number type.

If you’re only testing a signup or basic verification flow, a free/shared inbox may work. If you want better delivery or may need access again later, choose Activation, Private, or Rental. These options are usually more reliable than heavily reused public numbers.

Choose the country + number.

Select the country you need, get a number, and copy it carefully. Paste it in international format when possible: +CountryCodeNumber. If the Cathay form only accepts digits, use the same number without the + sign.

Request the OTP on Cathay.

Enter the number on Cathay, submit it, and request the verification code. Avoid repeated taps or rapid resends. One request is usually best, then wait 60–120 seconds before trying again.

Receive the SMS on PVAPins.

When the OTP arrives in your PVAPins inbox, copy it and enter it on Cathay right away. Verification codes can expire quickly, so it’s best to use the most recent code.

If it fails, switch smart, not noisy.

If no code arrives or Cathay shows an error like invalid number, verification failed, or try again later, do not keep spamming resend. Switch to another number or move to a better route like Activation, Private, or Rental. In most cases, that solves the issue faster than repeated retries.

Safaricom: 071 234 5678 → +251 71 234 5678 (drop the trunk 0)
