## Adding a phone number to a Steam account

You can create a Steam account without a phone. Steam asks for one when you add it to your account details or set up the Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator.

1. **Open Account Details.** In Steam go to Account Details › Contact info › Add a phone number.
2. **Enter the number.** Choose the number's country and paste the digits from your SMS Falcon account.
3. **Confirm by email, then by SMS.** Steam sends an email to confirm the change, then texts a code to the number.
4. **Type the code.** Enter it to finish. The phone is now on your Steam account.

## When Steam won't take the number or the code

Steam is one of the strictest apps about numbers. These are the usual roadblocks.

- **Steam doesn't accept the number.** Steam refuses many ranges, especially ones it reads as VoIP. Pick another country; a code that never arrives is refunded automatically.
- **Nothing happens after you enter the number.** Steam first emails you to confirm the change. Click the link in that email, then the SMS follows.
- **The number is on another Steam account.** Use a fresh number for each account.
- **You'll need the number again later.** A phone on Steam is used for account recovery. For that, a [rented number](https://smsfalcon.com/rent) keeps the same number for longer.

## What a phone number unlocks on Steam

On Steam the phone isn't about signing up: it's what you need for the **Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator**, the app that confirms your logins, trades and Community Market listings. A phone on the account also gives you a way to **recover access** by SMS if you lose the authenticator.

Because the phone stays part of the account's recovery, think about how long you'll need it. For a long-lived account, keep a number you control.

## What people verify on Steam with our numbers

- **Set up Steam Guard Mobile.** Add the phone the authenticator needs.
- **Confirm trades and Market listings.** The Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator confirms them from your phone.
- **A separate account.** A second Steam account for streaming or a family member.

## Numbers Steam accepts

Expect Steam to be picky. It screens each number before texting it and refuses many internet-phone ranges, so stick to the countries listed, Brazil first. Every number we sell comes from a mobile operator range, and Steam still runs its own check on each one.

If Steam refuses a number, pick another country from the list: a number that never receives its code costs nothing. [Why apps refuse VoIP numbers](https://smsfalcon.com/non-voip-number).
