Why Riot Games blocks VoIP numbers

Riot Games requires phone verification to combat smurfing, cheating, and account fraud in competitive play. Since 2023, Valorant ranked play and League of Legends Clash/Tournament modes mandate SMS verification to maintain competitive integrity alongside Riot Vanguard anti-cheat.

  • "Something Went Wrong" Errors: VoIP numbers like Google Voice are filtered before verification codes are sent—Riot explicitly blocks internet-based phone services
  • Valorant Premier Lockout: Premier mode (the primary competitive pathway) requires SMS verification; VoIP rejection prevents ranked participation entirely
  • League of Legends Clash Blocked: Clash tournaments require verified mobile numbers—landlines and VoIP numbers are rejected to prevent smurf accounts
  • Rate Limiting Frustration: Request verification codes 3+ times in 5 minutes and Riot stops sending messages, forcing 10-minute cooldowns
  • "Number Already Used" Loops: Recycled temporary numbers trigger "phone number already registered" errors across Riot accounts
  • Regional MFA Expansion: Riot Mobile MFA is rolling out to AP and EU regions in 2026, with Ascendant+ ranked requiring additional phone verification

We can't guarantee acceptance on any platform, but real-SIM numbers from major US carriers (T-Mobile/AT&T) are treated like normal cell phones by Riot's verification system—not disposable VoIP services that anti-smurf measures target.

Bypass Riot Games verification blocks with Real SIMs

JoltSMS provides real carrier SIM numbers from US mobile networks (T-Mobile/AT&T)—not VoIP. These pass Riot's security checks for Valorant Premier, League of Legends Clash, and ranked play.

  • Physical SIMs from real carrier networks—Riot treats these like legitimate mobile phones, not VoIP
  • Private & Dedicated—this number is yours alone for the rental duration—eliminates "already registered" errors from shared services
  • Re-verify Capable—keep the number for future logins, device changes, and Riot's expanding Mobile MFA requirements
  • Team Inbox—share access for esports teams, content creators, and gaming organizations without sharing personal phones

Important notes for Riot Games verification

Not affiliated with Riot Games, Inc. JoltSMS provides phone numbers for legitimate account verification only—not for circumventing Riot account suspensions, VAC bans, or anti-cheat penalties.

Best practices:

  • Set up your JoltSMS number BEFORE entering Valorant Premier or LoL Clash to avoid last-minute verification issues
  • Enter country code (+1) in left field, 10-digit number in right field—formatting errors cause "Something Went Wrong"
  • Wait 10 minutes between verification attempts if rate-limited—3+ requests in 5 minutes triggers cooldowns
  • Enable Email, Slack, Telegram, and Microsoft Teams notifications so verification codes reach you instantly even when away from game
  • Keep your number active long-term—Riot may require re-verification during device changes or account recovery
  • Test your number with a non-Riot SMS first to confirm delivery is working properly
  • Use one dedicated JoltSMS number per Riot account—sharing numbers triggers "already registered" errors
  • Don't unlink and re-link numbers unnecessarily—triggers 6-month cooldown periods
  • JoltSMS numbers are for legitimate account verification only—not for circumventing suspensions or bans
  • Initial number provisioning takes 24-48 hours—plan ahead before tournament deadlines
  • While real-SIM numbers have the highest acceptance rate, we cannot guarantee acceptance on any platform
  • Riot limits how many accounts can use the same phone number—use one number per account
  • Prepare for 2026 Mobile MFA expansion by keeping your number active and verified

Riot Games verification FAQ

JoltSMS provides real-SIM, non-VoIP US numbers from major carriers (T-Mobile/AT&T). Riot Games explicitly blocks VoIP numbers like Google Voice because they're "easy to spoof" for anti-smurf purposes. Our Real-SIM numbers pass Riot's verification checks because they're physical SIM cards from legitimate carriers, not virtual/VoIP services. While we can't guarantee acceptance by any platform, real carrier numbers have significantly higher acceptance rates than VoIP alternatives.
