Let’s be real hitting that “enter your phone number” wall over and over is a pain. The simple workaround? Use a virtual number to bypass phone verification for Mercari in Japan without exposing your personal SIM. With PVAPins, OTPs appear quickly, cleanly, and exactly where you need them, minus the spam and drama.
Quick note: Please use virtual numbers responsibly and in line with Mercari’s Terms of Service and local laws. This guide is for legit verification, no shady stuff.Why Use a Virtual Number for Mercari in Japan?
Let’s be honest — dropping your personal phone number into every single app isn’t the most brilliant move. It just opens the door to spam texts, shady follow-ups, and the kind of “why am I even getting this?” calls that nobody wants. A virtual number keeps all that noise out of your life and gives you way more control.
Here’s what makes it worth it:
Protect your privacy — your real number stays hidden so that you won’t receive random calls or junk texts.
Works like a regular line — OTPs, sign-ups, logins… everything goes through just fine.
Handle multiple accounts easily — personal, business, or test profiles without the headache.
Speed matters — in Japan, codes typically appear on your dashboard in seconds, not minutes.
No SIM needed — everything’s online, so you don’t need another device or card.
Bottom line: if you want an easier, safer, and faster way to get verified on Mercari, a virtual number is the most imaginative play.
