Airtasker SMS Verification

Airtasker SMS verification lets you confirm your phone on the task marketplace with a virtual number. This way you can post jobs and take on tasks without sharing your personal number.

Airtasker is an Australia-based task and freelance marketplace (also operating in the UK and US) where users post jobs — from cleaning and moving to assembly and design — and local 'Taskers' take them on. The platform sends an SMS verification code to your phone during sign-up to build trust between members and protect account security.

To verify with a virtual number, enter the temporary number in the phone field on the Airtasker sign-up screen and confirm the SMS code you receive. This method suits people who prefer not to share a personal number on a public marketplace, users managing more than one account, or those starting to offer services in a new area.

Because posters and Taskers communicate throughout a job on Airtasker, your verification number strengthens your account's identity. Only use the SMS code on the official Airtasker app or site; sharing the code could let someone take over your account. Payment and review history are tied to the verified account.
