It's been a long time since I made a Kobo account so I'm not sure if they need verification but some services do like Reddit.
I don't believe that Kobo requires a verification for an email address as the advice has been given many times to use a fake email account with no posts complaining about it. If nothing else, try the fake address first, and then if necessary, use a temp email address.

I haven't heard of getting an email address for a few minutes. Is there some service/website, or do you have to create it and then delete it?
