Why Mercari Restricts Virtual & VoIP Phone Numbers
Mercari enforces strict phone number verification to combat listing fraud, counterfeit goods, and payout diversion. When a virtual VoIP number is detected, Mercari limits account functionality or suspends the profile. USAVerify Pro supplies fresh physical SIM numbers from AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile that ensure immediate Mercari verification.
