Connected to a hotspot but stuck on an email form? First check whether it needs a one-time confirmation or an account you’ll need to access again later.
If you only need one confirmation email to get online and the venue allows temporary email, use an address that expires after a set time. For bills, refunds, or account recovery, don’t rely on an address with a countdown.

Marketing emails aren’t needed to connect. If the option is optional and you don’t want them, leave it unchecked.
Check the instructions near the submit button, and whether you’ll need the account again after connecting.
The page asks for a contact address, then connects you without asking you to open your inbox or click a link.
The page asks you to check for a verification code or click a confirmation link. You need an address that can receive email; entering a made-up address won’t work.
Airport memberships, hotel loyalty programs, and multi-day Wi-Fi plans may require you to log in again, renew, or recover your account by email.
A correctly formatted address doesn’t guarantee the venue will accept it. Tmpsky can’t guarantee portal approval or bypass identity checks or payment requirements.
A Wi-Fi login window opened by your phone may not let you keep multiple tabs open. Plan how you’ll get back to your inbox first.
In a regular browser, open the home page, then wait for an address to be generated. Don’t use the example address on this page as your own.
Use the copy button next to the address and make sure it includes the full @tmpsky.com. Check how much time is left. Extend the address if you need more time to verify.
Paste it into the email field, read the network terms, then submit. Don’t enter an email verification code in the room number, phone number, or password field.
Return to the inbox you already opened and wait for it to refresh. When the email arrives, enter the code or open the confirmation link as directed by the portal.
A familiar subject line doesn’t prove an email is genuine. Check the sender address, verification code, and link destination separately.
A routine Wi-Fi email confirmation won’t ask for your email password. Stop if a page asks for your email password or payment details, or asks you to install an unknown certificate.

Some portals send a confirmation link instead of a code. Check where it leads before opening it.

.example is a reserved example domain. Check your actual messages in the inbox on the home page.Don’t keep trying different addresses at random. The error message often tells you what to do next.
This is the venue’s or network provider’s email policy, not a formatting issue. Trying another address on the same domain usually won’t help.
Use an address you can access long-term that the venue accepts, or contact staff. A forwarding alias may also be blocked; don’t use one to get around an explicit restriction.
First, check that the full address in the portal matches and check the inbox countdown. Then make sure you can access Tmpsky on your current connection. Try refreshing once; repeatedly requesting another email may trigger the portal’s rate limit.
Wait as long as the portal advises before requesting another email. After resubmitting, use the latest verification code. If the email still doesn’t arrive, ask staff to check delivery or use an email address you can access long-term.
Email is just one of the fields. A temporary address can’t replace proof of guest status, SMS verification, identity checks, or eligibility for a Wi-Fi plan.
Provide your own information as required by the venue. If you’re unsure why something is needed, ask first. Don’t enter someone else’s room number or ID details, or try to bypass verification.
A one-time confirmation is easy to leave behind. Money, bookings, and accounts need a different plan.
Don’t let the email you use for public Wi-Fi become your only way to be contacted during a trip. Check where hotel bills, deposit refunds, booking changes, and membership recovery messages will go before using a temporary address.
Addresses generated on the home page are currently valid for 3 hours. Each extension adds 3 hours; check the live countdown and the result of each extension. Once an address expires, is replaced, or is deleted, don’t expect to retrieve messages sent to it.
Check how long addresses last and what happens when they expireFor one-time verification, get an address on the home page. For ongoing email, go to the separate sign-in page to set up forwarding.
Follow the venue’s network rules. The portal provider decides whether to accept an address.
