Nike mobile number verification for SNKRS: what to know
In short
- Nike requires a verified mobile number before you can take part in SNKRS releases, draws and passes.
- Nike says VoIP and landline numbers aren’t supported, and each number can be linked to only one Nike Member profile.
- Verify in the Nike App or SNKRS under Settings, Mobile Number, or online in your account settings.

How to verify

Nike’s rules
- Use a mobile number from a supported country. Nike says VoIP and landline numbers aren’t supported.
- Your phone must be on the network and able to send and receive texts.
- Each number can be linked to only one Nike Member profile.
- Nike’s draw rules allow one entry per person for each launch.
Email checks too
Nike may also ask you to verify your email, especially when you sign in from a device it doesn’t recognise. If that email doesn’t arrive, check spam, junk and trash, and allow emails from [email protected].
Using a one-time number
Whether Nike accepts a number is up to Nike; if a number from ReserveSMS gets no code within 20 minutes, the money goes back to your balance. Nike asks you to verify again when your number changes, and ours receive codes for 20 minutes only, so for a profile you’ll keep, use a number you keep. Get a number for Nike.
