Step by step
How to verify LinkedIn with a Nigeria number
One LinkedIn code on a +234 number costs $0.22 — the 7th cheapest of 54 countries in Africa. Full LinkedIn walkthrough and troubleshooting: LinkedIn verification guide.
Get your Nigeria number
Sign up with an email, top up with USDT or USDC and pick Nigeria: a plan to keep the +234 number, or a single-use LinkedIn OTP number ($0.22).
Open LinkedIn
Go to Settings → Sign in & security → Phone numbers, or the prompt during sign-up.
Enter the +234 number
Select Nigeria (+234) in LinkedIn's country picker, then paste the digits your dashboard shows after +234 into LinkedIn.
Enter the LinkedIn code
LinkedIn sends a 6-digit code by SMS. SMS codes appear in your PhoneBorn dashboard next to the +234 number; type the code into LinkedIn to finish.
Tips for Nigeria numbers
- After +234, Nigeria mobile numbers begin with 70, 80, 81, 90, 91 — a quick check that you pasted the whole number.
- Only need one code and the country doesn't matter? Lesotho costs $0.15 for LinkedIn, against $0.22 here.
- A local number fits a local-market profile and recruiter contact details.
Why use a Nigeria number for LinkedIn?
Day-to-day life in Nigeria runs on WhatsApp, Instagram and TikTok, yet LinkedIn remains the app for a professional profile for a job search or clients in the country. A +234 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Diaspora in the UK and US: Nigerians in London, Houston and Toronto keep a +234 number for family WhatsApp groups and to receive codes from Nigerian banking apps.
LinkedIn uses the number for sign-in checks and account restrictions long after sign-up.
