Step by step
How to verify Uber with a Seychelles number
One Uber code on a +248 number costs $0.61 — the 34th cheapest of 54 countries in Africa. Full Uber walkthrough and troubleshooting: Uber verification guide.
Get your Seychelles number
Sign up with an email, top up with USDT or USDC and pick Seychelles: a plan to keep the +248 number, or a single-use Uber OTP number ($0.61).
Open Uber
Go to the first screen of the Uber app (“Enter your mobile number”).
Enter the +248 number
Select Seychelles (+248) in Uber's country picker, then paste the digits your dashboard shows after +248 into Uber.
Enter the Uber code
Uber sends a 4-digit code by SMS (WhatsApp in some markets). SMS codes appear in your PhoneBorn dashboard next to the +248 number; type the code into Uber to finish.
Tips for Seychelles numbers
- After +248, Seychelles mobile numbers begin with 2 — a quick check that you pasted the whole number.
- Only need one code and the country doesn't matter? Lesotho costs $0.17 for Uber, against $0.61 here.
- A local number looks familiar to drivers and couriers who call you.
Why use a Seychelles number for Uber?
Day-to-day life in Seychelles runs on WhatsApp, Facebook and Messenger, yet Uber remains the app for rides and deliveries with a local number drivers can reach. A +248 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Offshore company contacts: Seychelles is a popular jurisdiction for international companies, which often list a local phone contact.
Uber logs you in by SMS and drivers contact you on the number during every trip.
