I travel full time and have no single, constant phone number. How do I use Paypal like this?

I'm a digital nomad and move countries every few weeks/months.
I used to have a Canadian number but have recently cancelled that number (it was $70/month for essentially a Paypal sms verification device).
What's the best option here?

Hi @extism,
Welcome to the forums. SMS verification is typically the way to go for the easiest method to verify yourself while travelling. Other methods of verification may be available, but we wouldn't know what options they would be until verification is prompted.
If you continue to travel, we would recommend getting a new number for the best experience.
