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

  1. Check your number details
    Make sure the country code is correct and you didn’t add/remove a digit by accident.

  2. Request the OTP once
    Tap Send code and wait. Rapid retries can trigger temporary blocks.

  3. Wait 60–120 seconds → resend only once
    If nothing arrives, wait a bit, then resend one time. Avoid spamming.

  4. Check signal + SMS filtering
    Turn off airplane mode, confirm you have coverage, and check spam/blocked/unknown sender filters.

  5. Try a backup option if shown
    If Affirm offers email, in-app verification, or another method, use it—SMS can be slower depending on carrier.

  6. Still stuck? Contact Affirm support
    For financial accounts, verification routes can be restricted for security reasons—support is the safest fix.

South Africa number format (quick copy)

  • Country code: +27

  • International prefix (dialing out locally): 00

  • Trunk prefix (local): 0 (drop it when using +27)

  • Plan type / length: closed plan, 9-digit NSN (you dial all 9 digits domestically)

  • Mobile pattern (common for OTP): many mobile ranges fall under 06 and 07 (and other mobile allocations), so mobiles often appear as 0X XXX XXXX locally

  • Mobile length used in forms: typically 9 digits after +27 (no leading 0)

Common pattern (example):

  • Mobile: 082 123 4567 → International: +27 82 123 4567 (drop the leading 0)

Quick tip: If the form rejects spaces/dashes, paste it as +27821234567 (digits only).

Cost and Rental Options in South Africa

PVAPins keeps pricing transparent and straightforward. Choose a Temporary number for a one-off verification, or a Rental number if you’ll log in regularly.

  • Temporary: Lowest cost for single use, perfect for quick signups or tests.

  • Rental: Best for re-logins, password resets, and device changes. You keep the same line, which reduces re-verification friction.

  • All rates are shown upfront, no hidden fees. Select what fits your current usage and switch anytime.

Fixing Slow OTP Delivery Quickly

  • Wait for the timer, then resend once rapid repeats can trigger throttling.

  • Switch to a fresh line or nearby corridor if the current route is congested.

  • Use a Rental for stable re-logins; consistent identity lowers extra checks.

  • Try the app's fallback option (such as a voice call or alternative method) when it's offered.

Example: If an evening release spike slows SMS, moving to a nearby corridor often restores sub-minute delivery without changing your workflow or devices.
