Many international trading platforms ask for phone verification at signup and can prompt for it again on login from a new device or location. As with any financial platform, that permanently links your real number to a financial account — not ideal if you're testing, running more than one account, or would rather keep that number private.
Steps
Rent a number for the platform you're signing up with — an instant rental is enough to get through signup.
Enter the rented number, with country code, on the platform's phone-verification step.
It sends an SMS code, typically within seconds.
Enter the code shown on your rental's status page to finish verifying.
Instant or monthly?
Instant covers a single signup. If you're keeping the account long-term and expect the platform to re-verify by SMS on future logins, a monthly rental keeps the same number reachable instead of expiring right after the first code.
