Choose your number type
Free inbox = quick tests. Activation or Rental = typically better delivery and fewer rejections.
Pick country + copy the number
Select the country you need, grab a number, and copy it exactly.
Request the OTP on Cathay
Enter the number on the Cathay verification screen and tap Send code (avoid rapid retries).
Check PVAPins inbox
Refresh once or twice, copy the OTP as soon as it arrives, and enter it immediately (codes expire fast).
If it fails, switch smart
Don’t spam resend. Switch number/route, wait a bit, then try once again.
Wait 60–120 seconds, then resend once.
Confirm the country/region matches the number you entered.
Keep your device/IP steady during the verification flow.
Switch to a private route if public-style numbers get blocked.
Switch number/route after one clean retry (don't loop).
Choose based on what you're doing:
Most verification forms reject numbers because of formatting, not because your inbox is “bad.” Use international format (country code + digits), avoid spaces/dashes, and don’t add an extra leading 0.
Best default format: +CountryCode + Number (example: +85251234567)
If the form is digits-only: CountryCodeNumber (example: 85251234567)
Simple OTP rule: request once → wait 60–120 seconds → resend only once.
