For individuals and teams: pass Slack signup, invites, admin MFA, and Enterprise Grid compliance using SMS-Act, while lowering risk and failure rates.

Quick Takeaways

• Core steps: create SMS-Act account → get temp/dedicated number → enter code in Slack → retry with the playbook if blocked
• Recommended regions: US/UK/CA; switch carrier/country to avoid filtering
• Teams/automation: cap request frequency, use stable egress IPs; apply for dedicated pools for Enterprise/Grid
• Compliance: recycle temp numbers after use; request long-term numbers for persistent bindings

Where You’ll Need It

• Workspace signup or external member invites
• Admin password reset, MFA reset, SSO/SCIM enrollment checks
• Bulk test or automation accounts for SaaS teams
• Enterprise Grid audits requiring dedicated pools and throttling

Before You Start

• Use a network/IP consistent with your main team location
• Avoid simultaneous logins from multiple devices/regions
• For bulk tasks, validate success on a small batch before scaling concurrency

3-Step Flow

1. Create SMS-Act account
   • Sign up at SMS-Act and top up
   • In “Popular Services”, pick Slack and choose a country (US/UK/CA first)
2. Get a number
   • Click “Get Number” and copy it; note validity (default 15 minutes)
   • If blocked, swap carrier or country
3. Verify on Slack
   • Enter the number in Slack signup/login/invite flow
   • Read the SMS code in your SMS-Act order detail and submit in Slack
   • If admin MFA is enabled, bind your primary number in Slack security settings after verification

Pro tips

• Match country and IP to your team location to reduce filtering
• Automation/bulk: use the SMS-Act API; throttle concurrency and retries (≥60s)
• Update member profiles after verification to avoid repeated prompts

Failures & Risk Controls

• Code not received: wait ≥60s then “Resend code”; try another carrier/country; use voice if available
• Number rejected/blocked: clear browser cache or change network; avoid multiple rapid attempts from one IP
• Retry policy: max 3 attempts per number; switch number if failed; in bulk, cap per-minute requests
• Dedicated pools: recommended for Enterprise Grid or high-frequency automation to avoid shared-pool conflicts

Enterprise & Bulk Notes

• Concurrency: avoid spikes; add cool-down and failover rules
• Audit: enable Slack audit logs for unusual logins/devices
• Temp vs long-term numbers: use temp for one-off verification; use dedicated long-term numbers for ongoing bindings/compliance

FAQ

• Enterprise Grid supported? Yes—request a dedicated pool and rate limits.
• Keep numbers long-term? Temp numbers are reclaimed; request dedicated long-term numbers if you need persistent bindings.
• Voice codes? Use if Slack supports it locally; otherwise change country/carrier.
• Bulk account creation? Yes—pilot small batches, then scale with API concurrency control.

Security & Trust

• Turn on Slack MFA and use a password manager
• Regularly audit members/devices and remove inactive accounts
• Use stable egress IPs; check audit logs before/after sensitive actions
• Note: SMS-Act offers virtual numbers and dedicated lines; while competitors (e.g., SMS-Activate) provide similar services, SMS-Act adds multi-country pools, API throttling, and enterprise dedicated support.
