Step-by-Step Verification

  3. You will be redirected to Human ID for phone verification.
  4. Enter your phone number.
  5. Receive and enter the OTP (one-time password) sent via SMS, WhatsApp, or Viber.
  6. Once verified, an SBT will be minted on Optimism.

  • Viber — Via Viber messaging

Important Notes

  • Real phone numbers only — Virtual phone numbers, burner phones, and VoIP numbers are not accepted. The system detects and rejects these.
  • One phone per Passport — Each phone number can only be linked to one Passport.
  • SBT is non-transferable — The Soulbound Token minted during verification cannot be transferred to another wallet.

Troubleshooting

  • OTP not received — Try a different delivery method (SMS, WhatsApp, or Viber). Check that your phone number is correct and can receive messages.
  • Number rejected — Virtual and burner numbers are blocked. Use a real mobile phone number.
  • SBT not appearing — The minting transaction may take a few minutes on Optimism. Check the transaction status on the Optimism block explorer.
