> How to receive the Discord verification code on a virtual number: when Discord asks for a phone, why the code gets stuck and what to check before you buy.

In short

Discord can ask for a phone at sign-up, after suspicious activity or when a server requires a verified phone. Buy a number for Discord in Hush SMS, in the bot [@HushNumBot](https://t.me/HushNumBot?start=landing) or [on the website](https://hush-sms.com/account/?lang=en), enter it in Discord and wait for the code in your order. The order waits for the SMS for 15 minutes; without a code the money returns to your balance. Discord decides whether it accepts the number, and for a main account a rental is the safer choice.

Discord may ask you to add a phone number at different moments, and a virtual number is a simple way to receive the code without sharing your personal one. Here is when Discord asks, how to pass the check and what to do if the message does not come.

## When Discord asks for a phone number

- **A new account:** Discord sometimes asks for a phone right after sign-up.
- **Suspicious activity:** a new device, an unusual region or many actions in a short time can trigger a check.
- **Server rules:** server owners can set the highest verification level, which only lets in members with a verified phone.
- **Security settings:** a phone can be added for SMS sign-in and account recovery.

## Step by step

1. Open Hush SMS in the Telegram bot or in the web account and choose Discord in the catalog.
2. Pick a country and check the price before you buy.
3. Wait until the number is issued to your order, then copy it.
4. In Discord, choose the same country code and paste the number.
5. Request the code once and wait for it in your order.
6. Enter the code in Discord. If you will need the number again, consider a rental.

## Why the code gets stuck

- the service you picked in Hush SMS does not match the app you are verifying;
- the number is entered in the wrong format or with the wrong country code;
- Discord limits how often SMS codes can be requested;
- anti-spam checks tied to your IP address or session.

Do not request the code many times in a row: each new request can push the next one further back. If no SMS arrives, the order is refunded after 15 minutes, and you can try another country. The full checklist is in [SMS code not received](https://hush-sms.com/en/blog/sms-code-not-received/).

## Activation or rental

For a quick check, a one-time activation is enough. For a main account or a server you plan to run for a long time, a [rental](https://hush-sms.com/en/rent-virtual-number/) keeps the number available for the chosen term, so a repeat check or recovery does not lock you out.

## Many accounts or a bot farm for testing

If you run QA or need numbers for many test accounts, buy through the [API](https://hush-sms.com/en/sms-activation-api/) rather than by hand: you get statuses, cancellation and webhooks, and you can stop after a failed attempt instead of burning balance.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does Discord accept virtual numbers?

Often yes, but Discord makes the final decision based on the country, the number and its own anti-fraud checks. If a number is rejected, try another country.

### Can one number verify two Discord accounts?

Discord links a phone number to one account at a time. Use a separate number for each account.

### Can I automate Discord orders?

Yes, through the Hush SMS REST API: buying numbers, order statuses, cancellation and webhooks are documented at docs.hush-sms.com.

Check Hush SMS on one order: if the code does not arrive within 15 minutes, the money returns to your balance automatically.
