How to Verify Coinbase Without a SIM — Quick Setup in South Africa

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

  • Confirm your saved phone number
    Make sure the country code and digits match what’s on your Coinbase account (one wrong digit = no code).

  • Request the OTP once
    Tap Send code and wait. Rapid repeats can trigger rate limits.

  • Wait 60–120 seconds → resend only once
    If nothing arrives, wait a bit, then resend one time (don’t spam).

  • Check signal + SMS filters
    Airplane mode off, good network coverage, and check blocked/spam/unknown senders folders.

  • Use a safer backup method if available
    If you have Authenticator app, email OTP, or security keys, use those—SMS can be delayed depending on carrier routes.

  • If you’re locked out, use official recovery
    For security, exchanges may restrict OTP delivery. Use Coinbase’s official recovery/support flow to regain access.

    • 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).
