Yes. I wouldn't have mentioned it if it didn't work.
Here's a screenshot showing the Apple and PayPal 2FA codes I have received through Slack via Twilio...

I also don't have any accounts with banks that are stupid enough to use SMS for 2FA [1] so I haven't needed to use my Twilio number for that purpose.
Using SMS for Gmail 2FA doesn't make any sense when Google supports U2F.

- bubblethink 8y agopaypal also supports TOTP through an old trick. Look it up.
- sir_brickalot 8y agoI tried to find the "old trick" but only end up on 404s or forum threads that end with "they must have closed that trick now". Would you mind sharing a working source?
- bubblethink 8y agoPerhaps they have close it now then. This was the source: https://medium.com/@dubistkomisch/set-up-2fa-two-factor-authentication-for-paypal-with-google-authenticator-or-other-totp-client-60fee63bfa4f https://medium.com/@dubistkomisch/set-up-2fa-two-factor-auth...
