I'm trying to join Adobe Stock as a contributor. The onboarding page requires a verified mobile number, but I can't complete it.I enter my Pakistan number in international format (+92, no leading zero). Either the SMS code never arrives, even after waiting 5 to 10 minutes, or I get the error "An error occurred while performing this action. Please try again later." I do receive SMS codes from other services (for example Google) on the same number. I've tried Chrome and incognito mode.Has anyone in Pakistan solved this? Is there another way to verify the number, or a way to contact Adobe to have it verified manually? Thank you.

As of now, you can’t join. Your region is being blocked by Pakistani telecom providers. Until the geo-restrictions are lifted at your end, you can’t complete the Adobe verification process to create a Contributor account. Sorry.

BEST ADVICE: Join other marketplaces closer to Pakistan. And check back here again in few months.

Good luck.

Not present, apparently, until and unless the geo-location ban is lifted. I suppose you can try Google to see if there have been any successful work-arounds.

Adobe isn’t responsible for the geo-location block, so contacting them will not help with a solution. It is an issue with the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority that restricts what users inside Pakistan can access.
