How Do You Sign Up for Discord without a Phone Number?

Discord requires phone numbers to enhance user security and reduce the number of fake accounts. Phone number verification helps ensure that each account belongs to a real person and prevents bots and malicious users from creating multiple accounts.
 

• Confirms user identity and legitimacy.
• Reduces the number of fake or spam accounts.
• Helps in account recovery if you forget your password.

Though creating a Discord account without a phone number is no longer possible, there are a few options - virtual phone numbers, disposable phone numbers, and burner phones - that users can use to sign up for Discord.

A virtual phone number is not tied to a specific device or physical location but works like a regular phone number. It allows you to send and receive calls and text messages over the Internet.

You can use a virtual number to receive verification codes without exposing your personal information. It keeps your real number private and prevents potential security risks.
