Step by step
How to verify Google with a Cape Verde number
One Google code on a +238 number costs $0.82 — the 51st cheapest of 54 countries in Africa. Full Google walkthrough and troubleshooting: Google verification guide.
Get your Cape Verde number
Sign up with an email, top up with USDT or USDC and pick Cape Verde: a plan to keep the +238 number, or a single-use Google OTP number ($0.82).
Open Google
Go to the “Confirm you’re not a robot” / phone step during account creation, or Security → 2-Step Verification.
Enter the +238 number
Select Cape Verde (+238) in Google's country picker, then paste the digits your dashboard shows after +238 into Google.
Enter the Google code
Google sends a 6-digit code (sent as G-xxxxxx) by SMS or voice call. SMS codes appear in your PhoneBorn dashboard next to the +238 number; type the code into Google to finish.
Tips for Cape Verde numbers
- After +238, Cape Verde mobile numbers begin with 5, 9 — a quick check that you pasted the whole number.
- Only need one code and the country doesn't matter? Lesotho costs $0.17 for Google, against $0.82 here.
- Google sometimes lets you skip the phone step — adding one later still helps with recovery.
Why use a Cape Verde number for Google?
Day-to-day life in Cape Verde runs on WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram, yet Google remains the app for a Gmail, YouTube or Google Ads account that matches the country you target. A +238 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Island holidays: Visitors to Sal and Boa Vista can use a Cape Verdean number for resort transfers, kitesurf schools and ferry bookings.
Google uses the number for account recovery and sign-in challenges long after sign-up.
