How it works
How Facebook confirms a mobile number
Facebook's sign-up form takes a name, a date of birth and either a mobile number or an email address. With a number, Facebook texts a confirmation code. Entering it confirms the account and attaches the number as a login and a password-reset contact.
Facebook treats a phone number as an identifier. Accounts can be found and recovered through it, so a number left on an account keeps working as a key to it.
Facebook also runs its own automated checks on new accounts, and these have nothing to do with the SMS. An account can be confirmed by code and still be asked for more a few minutes later.
What goes wrong
Where Facebook confirmation goes wrong
Facebook asks for more after the code
A new account is sometimes locked until its holder uploads a photo or an ID. The SMS was delivered and the order is complete. The further check is between you and Facebook, and a phone number cannot answer it.
The number is already on a profile
A recycled number can still be attached to someone else's account. Use another number. Do not use "forgot password" on that account, because it is not yours.
Codes stop coming
After several requests Facebook stops sending codes to a number for a while. Wait rather than asking again.
Practical tips
Practical tips for Facebook
- Use the name you go by in everyday life. Facebook's terms require it on personal accounts.
- Add an email address straight after sign-up and make it the primary contact, then remove the one-time number in Accounts Center.
- Turn on two-factor authentication with an authenticator app, not text messages.
- For a business or a second identity, create a Page or an additional profile inside your existing account. Neither needs a new phone number.
- Facebook's terms and community standards decide what the account may be used for.
Know the limits
What a phone number will not do on Facebook
A second personal account
Meta's terms allow one personal account per person. Additional profiles and Pages exist for a separate presence and live inside the account you already have.
Identity confirmation
When Facebook asks for an ID or a selfie it wants to match a person. A number cannot do that.
Ad accounts and business verification
Those depend on business documents and payment details, not on the phone number attached to a profile.
What the Facebook delivery figure counts
An order for Facebook counts as delivered only when its code reached the order page. For Facebook the figure covers the SMS only. An ID or photo request that Facebook makes after a delivered code is a decision about the account, not a delivery failure.

Facebook questions
Facebook verification, answered
How much does a Facebook verification number cost?
From $0.05 to $0.10 per code today, depending on the country. The lowest Facebook price is for Indonesia and the Philippines, and the highest is for the United Kingdom.
Can I use a one-time number for a second Facebook account?
FastOTP will deliver the code, but Facebook's terms allow one personal account per person, so whether you may open the account is a question for those terms and not for the number. For a separate presence Facebook offers additional profiles and Pages inside your existing account.
Facebook accepted my code and then asked for ID. Is the order refunded?
No. The refund rule covers codes that do not arrive. Once the code has been delivered the order is complete, and any later check is Facebook's decision about the account.
Why did Facebook stop sending codes to the number?
Facebook limits how many confirmation codes it will send to one number in a period. After several requests it pauses. Request once, wait, and if nothing has arrived after two minutes cancel the order for a full refund.
