What OpenAI requires from a number
- Non-VoIP required
- Yes. VoIP ranges are rejected or limited.
- Number reuse
- A number can verify more than one account over time.
OpenAI rejects VoIP and virtual desk numbers at signup, so the number has to be a real carrier line. Verification is tied to the number itself: a line already attached to an OpenAI account may be refused on a new signup. On a one-time OTP, reusing the same number is free inside the 15-minute window and paid after it expires; a rental or dedicated line keeps the same number for as long as you hold it.
The number is half the signal
OpenAI checks the connection alongside the number. A mobile proxy keeps every signup and login on a real carrier IP, so the account you verify here looks consistent from day one.
AI agents
An agent can handle OpenAI verification
Once you create an API key and fund the balance, an AI agent can rent the OpenAI number when you say yes, poll for the message and read the parsed code through VoidMob's open-source MCP server. Works with Claude Code, Codex and other local MCP clients.
Verifying OpenAI with a real carrier number
OpenAI no longer asks for a phone number to create a ChatGPT account, but platform.openai.com requires one before issuing your first API key, and it can ask again later. OpenAI does not support landlines, VoIP, Google Voice or premium numbers, so those are refused before a code is sent.
Verification is tied to the number, so a line already attached to an OpenAI account may be refused on a new signup. A one-time OTP covers the initial code, and reuse inside its 15-minute window is free. If the account holds billing or an API key, hold the number.
Losing the number means losing the recovery path. A multi-day rental covers re-verification and tier changes days after signup; the dedicated monthly line is offered per country. Pair either with a stable IP, since OpenAI weighs login network and device signals alongside the number.
