Need an OTP but don’t want to share your personal SIM everywhere? Use PVAPins to receive SMS online in Nigeria (+234). Start with a free inbox for quick tests, then switch to Instant Activation or rent a number when you need better stability for re-login, 2FA, or repeat verifications.


Quick playbook that avoids most “OTP not received” headaches:
Select a +234 Nigeria number and paste it into the verification form.
Wait briefly, refresh once, retry once, then stop (resend spam triggers limits).
If it fails, switch the number or use a private route/Instant Activation for better deliverability.
Help users pick the right option fast.
| Route | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Free inbox Quick tests | Throwaway signups, low-risk verification | Public & reused. Some apps block it instantly. |
| Instant Activation Higher deliverability | When you need OTP to land more reliably | Private-ish route for fewer blocks and higher success. |
| Rental Best for re-login | 2FA, recovery, accounts you'll keep | Most stable option for repeat access over time. |
