New Caledonia (+687) Numbers for App Verification, Explained
Yes, OTP Bolt provides New Caledonia (+687) numbers: use Instant OTP to receive a single verification code from $0.20 per code, with an automatic refund if no code comes within 20 minutes. If you need a +687 number long term, a Dedicated Number can be requested from $1.95/month, subject to availability, price and any address or ID check.
Is there a New Caledonia virtual number for OTP codes?
Yes. OTP Bolt lists more than 700 apps with Instant OTP coverage in New Caledonia, which is a healthy range for a Pacific territory of its size. You get a +687 number tied to one app, receive the code, and the order closes.
A longer-lasting option exists too. A Dedicated Number keeps the same +687 line on your account, but it is arranged on request rather than issued on the spot.
Which apps are covered in New Caledonia?
Here is a selection of what's live for +687 at the moment:
- Chat: WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, Viber and WeChat
- Social and community: Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and Discord
- Work and AI: Microsoft & Outlook, LinkedIn, ChatGPT (OpenAI) and Claude
- Travel and shopping: Airbnb, Uber and Amazon
The dashboard holds the full, current list and shows each app's price after you fund your wallet the first time.
What are the steps to get a +687 code?
- Register at /signup with your email and a 6-digit confirmation code, or continue with Google.
- Top up the wallet; this unlocks ordering and exact prices.
- Choose your app and set the country to New Caledonia.
- Copy the number into the app, then tap whatever button sends the SMS.
- Open the live inbox in your dashboard. A +687 code generally reaches that inbox a minute or two after the app sends it.
Each order has a 20-minute window.
What if my code is late or missing?
If nothing has arrived after 20 minutes, the order cancels itself and the whole amount goes back to your wallet. You can also cancel sooner, as long as no code has come through. A code that was delivered isn't refunded.
Before giving up, try a resend from the app, since another SMS on the same number is sometimes possible. Also confirm the app shows +687 in front of the number. If the app simply won't accept the number, choose a different country or app; some services turn away virtual numbers on principle.
How are New Caledonian phone numbers formatted?
Numbers in New Caledonia are six digits long, with no area code and no leading 0. In a sign-up form, select New Caledonia (+687) from the country list and type the six digits. If there's only one box, enter +687 and the six digits together.
French is the official language, so if your app is set to French you'll likely see the verification message in French. Apps set to English usually send English text. The code itself is just digits either way.
Should I request a New Caledonia Dedicated Number instead?
Choose a Dedicated Number when you'll come back to the same account: repeated logins, a recovery phone that has to stay valid, or a line for a small business on Grande Terre that customers can call.
For New Caledonia this is on request; just three markets get instant self-serve numbers, namely the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. In the dashboard, click Request a country and choose New Caledonia. The OTP Bolt team checks availability and price, and says whether local rules require an address or ID check before activation. Turnaround depends on the country.
The number comes with an SMS inbox for unlimited verification texts, browser calling (Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari, no SIM required), browser-based inbound calls and a call log. Prices start from $1.95/month, prepaid and renewed from the wallet after an email reminder. Read more on Dedicated Numbers.
Who needs a +687 second number, and can developers test with it?
People from New Caledonia studying or working in mainland France or Australia often keep accounts linked to home and need a +687 number to receive codes for them. Visitors and contract workers on the island use one to avoid giving out a personal number, and businesses use it to separate work from private life.
For developers, the REST API lets you create an API key, order a New Caledonia number, poll for the OTP and cancel. That's handy for checking that your form accepts a six-digit local number, which trips up validators built around longer formats.
The wallet is prepaid in USD: fund it by card through Stripe checkout or with USDT or USDC.

Questions people ask
Can I get a New Caledonia number while living in France?
Yes. Instant OTP numbers can be ordered from any country, and a Dedicated Number can be requested from the dashboard regardless of where you are.
How much does a New Caledonia OTP cost?
Pricing starts from $0.20 per code. The precise amount depends on the app and shows after your first wallet top-up.
Why does my form reject a six-digit number?
Some forms expect longer numbers. Make sure New Caledonia (+687) is selected as the country, then enter only the six digits.
Will Instagram send its code in French?
That usually depends on your app's language setting rather than the number. The code digits are the same in any language.
Can I reuse an Instant OTP number for account recovery?
Not reliably, because Instant OTP is for one code. Request a Dedicated Number if you need a recovery phone that stays yours.
Does a +687 Dedicated Number need ID?
It might. The team checks local requirements when you request the country and tells you before anything is activated.
Can I top up with crypto?
Yes, USDT and USDC are accepted alongside card payments through Stripe checkout.
Is it fine to use a New Caledonia number for multiple accounts on one app?
No. Follow each app's rules: one account per real person or business. Use OTP Bolt for privacy, business needs or testing your own app.
