Start your first Numship session
A session creates one temporary number for one verification flow and starts the 20-minute availability window.
Open the app and choose the country or region required by the service you are verifying.
Start a new session and copy the temporary number into the service requesting verification.
Keep the app open or return to the inbox to watch for incoming SMS messages during the 20-minute code window.
If you no longer need the number, wait until cancellation becomes available after 2 minutes, then cancel the session.
A Numship code stays available for 20 minutes. Cancellation is available after 2 minutes so accidental sessions can be stopped without treating the number as permanent.
