What is SMS/phone verification?

SolutionGumtree is committed to creating a safer classified community site so we have introduced a SMS/phone verification process that may require you to enter a phone number so it can be verified by our systems. This is to help ensure that users are locally based.

It only takes a minute and you simply need to follow the prompts to complete the verification process.

Please enter your 10-digit phone number without any spaces or dashes. For example, if you're using mobile 04xx xxx xxx or if using a land line, please include your area code 02 9xxx xxxx.

Please note if posting with a non-Australian phone number, you won't be able to use Gumtree.

We hope you will understand that this is intended to provide a safer and more enjoyable classified experience. If you still have any questions please contact us and we'd be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Please view our Terms of Use regards collection, transfer, storage and use of your personal information by Gumtree.
