Using a disposable email with Instagram

Many people prefer not to attach their main address to every social or gaming account. A disposable inbox lets you receive the Instagram verification message, confirm the code, and move on — without adding your real email to another marketing database. Always follow Instagram's own terms of service when creating an account.

Steps

  1. Open MailboxTemp and copy your temporary address.
  2. Use it on the Instagram signup form.
  3. Open the verification email that lands in your MailboxTemp inbox and copy the code (auto-detected).
  4. Complete signup; the inbox disappears on expiry.

Frequently asked questions

Can I receive a Instagram verification code with a temporary email?

Yes. The Instagram confirmation email arrives in your MailboxTemp inbox within seconds and the code is highlighted for easy copying.

Is this against Instagram's rules?

Use Instagram in line with its own terms of service. MailboxTemp simply provides a private inbox; you are responsible for how you use the accounts you create.

Will I be able to recover the Instagram account later?

Only while the inbox is alive. Disposable inboxes expire, so for an account you intend to keep, use a permanent address.

Is it free?

Yes, generating the inbox and receiving the Instagram code is completely free.
