About LinkedIn phone verification
LinkedIn, owned by Microsoft, is a professional network used for résumés, job searching, recruiting, company pages and industry content. Sign-up is usually done with an email address, but LinkedIn may ask for a phone number during registration in some regions, as part of a security check when a login looks unusual, or when you add a phone for two-step verification. LinkedIn also offers identity verification badges through separate partners, which rely on official documents rather than a phone number. Because a LinkedIn profile often represents your real professional identity, long-term account access matters more here than on many other platforms.
Why use a separate number for LinkedIn?
- Completing a phone check without sharing your personal mobile number with a professional network.
- Setting up a profile for a recruiter or company page administrator role that you are authorised to hold.
- Testing Sign In with LinkedIn in a development project using an account you control.
How to get a LinkedIn verification code
- Top up your SmsBuyz balance (crypto; the first deposit gets a 20% bonus).
- Select LinkedIn in the service panel.
- Choose a country with numbers in stock and check the final price.
- Buy the number and enter it in LinkedIn exactly as the app asks for it.
- Copy the code from your order page. If nothing arrives while the order is pending, cancel it to get the amount back.
LinkedIn tips before you order
- Use an email address you will keep for years as the primary contact; LinkedIn account recovery often relies on it.
- Turn on two-step verification with an authenticator app rather than SMS, so your profile is not tied to the rented number.
- Hide the phone number from your contact info section, or remove it once the verification step is done, if LinkedIn allows it for your account.
- Complete your profile honestly; LinkedIn expects real professional identities, and a virtual number is only for privacy, not for a persona.
- If LinkedIn does not accept the number, cancel the pending order and try a number from a different country.
LinkedIn virtual number FAQ
Why does LinkedIn ask for my phone number?
LinkedIn may request one to confirm you are a real person or to secure a login it considers unusual. The prompt usually explains the reason.
Will recruiters see the virtual number?
Only if you add it to your visible contact info. Phone numbers used for security are generally not shown on your public profile.
Is a temporary number fine for my main career profile?
It can help with a one-time check, but do not rely on it for recovery. Keep an email and authenticator app you control as your recovery methods.
Does this give me a LinkedIn verification badge?
No. LinkedIn verification badges use separate identity or workplace checks, not SMS codes.
What if LinkedIn restricts my account?
Follow the verification or appeal steps LinkedIn shows for your own account. A new number is not a way to get around a restriction.
How much does a LinkedIn verification number cost?
The catalogue price for LinkedIn starts at $0.2574 per activation. The final price depends on the country and route you pick and is shown before you pay.
What happens if the LinkedIn code never arrives?
An order waits up to 20 minutes for the SMS. While it is still pending you can cancel it and the amount returns to your SmsBuyz balance; pending orders that expire are refunded automatically.
