Step by step
Coinbase asks for your number at the phone step during sign-up or Settings → Security. Expect a numeric SMS code; it can arrive by SMS.
Get your Senegal number
Sign up at PhoneBorn with an email, top up with crypto and choose Senegal: a monthly plan ($5.49) if you want to keep the account, or a single-use Coinbase OTP number ($1.22) for one code.
Open Coinbase
Go to the phone step during sign-up or Settings → Security.
Enter the +221 number
Select Senegal (+221) in the country picker and paste the number from your dashboard without a leading 0. Senegal mobiles look like 77 xxx xx xx → +221 77 xxx xx xx.

Follow the prompt
Add an authenticator app or security key as your main 2FA.
Day-to-day life in Senegal runs on WhatsApp, Facebook and TikTok, yet Coinbase remains the app for a stable 2FA number for a crypto account. A +221 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Dakar’s startup scene: Dakar is a regional tech hub, and founders and remote workers use Senegalese numbers for local payments and customer chats.
Coinbase sends sign-in and recovery codes to the number on file.
Senegal is one of West Africa’s most stable and connected countries, with Wave’s low-cost mobile money transforming how people pay and send funds. Its large diaspora across Europe and a growing Dakar tech scene both depend on reachable +221 numbers.
Local context
Senegalese SIM cards must be registered with an ID card or passport at purchase. A Senegal number from PhoneBorn needs no SIM and no ID — only an email.
