# How to Connect Phone Number

Linking a phone number adds an extra login method. If you are experiencing issues receiving SMS verification codes during the binding process, you can use Telegram as an alternative verification channel.

**Here is a guide on connecting to your phone number:**

Mobile phone number page link: <https://my.cwallet.com/settings/security/mobile>

Navigate to the avatar photo in the upper right corner, and click the '**Settings**' option.

We highly recommend using Telegram to receive the verification code, as it is more stable.

**⚠️&#x20;**<mark style="color:green;">**Critical Reminder:**</mark> You did not create a Cwallet account using the Telegram account you are trying to link, and your Telegram account must be in a logged-in state.

If you still want to use SMS to receive the verification code, you need to click the '**other options**' button.

Click the '**send code**' button, and you will receive the code from your SMS or Telegram account.

Once it has been confirmed, your phone number has been bound successfully.
