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

  • Use your own Medium-compatible phone number.

    For the best chance of success, use a real mobile number you control. Avoid VoIP, temporary, or shared numbers, since they may not receive Medium verification codes reliably.

    Choose the correct country code + number.

    Select your country and enter your number in a clean format: +CountryCodeNumber (example: +14155550123) or digits-only if the form only accepts numbers (14155550123). Do not use spaces, dashes, brackets, or an extra leading 0 unless the form asks for it.

    Request the OTP on Medium.

    Enter the number on Medium for signup, login, or security verification, then tap Send code. Do not spam-resend. Send one request, wait 60–120 seconds, and resend only once if needed.

    Receive the SMS on your phone.

    The Medium OTP code should arrive by text message on your device. Copy it and enter it back on Medium quickly, since codes can expire fast.

    If it fails, troubleshoot cleanly.

    If no code arrives or you see an error, do not keep hammering; use the resend button. Double-check the country code and number format, wait a bit, then try once more. If it still fails, try your carrier network instead of Wi-Fi calling, or contact Medium support.
