OffGamers SMS Verification

Buying game codes or gift cards? You can pass the OffGamers SMS verification step with a virtual number, but learn the number-change and eKYC rules first.

OffGamers is a digital game and gift card store, reportedly founded in 2004 and based in Singapore, selling game credits, CD keys, subscription top-ups, gift cards and mobile recharges. Sign-up runs directly through your mobile number: you enter it, pass a reCAPTCHA and type in the OTP sent by SMS. That number is the main security key for your account and orders.

A virtual number can ease sign-up for people who open an account to buy gift cards or game credits and would rather not share their personal line with a shop. OffGamers requires the number to be active and able to receive SMS from its system, so some virtual numbers may be rejected. If your phone number's country does not match the currency you select, extra verification may be requested at checkout.

To change your number you must confirm the last four digits of the old one; if you cannot, you will need to ask customer support to reset your security token. If you used a short-lived number, note those last four digits. Some payment methods trigger eKYC with an ID document under anti-money-laundering rules, and that step is done with your own identity.
