SMS and Verification Codes

Deliverability is a key indicator of the effectiveness of temporary numbers, reflecting the percentage of successful SMS receipt for service activation. This parameter is dynamic and depends on many technical and geographical factors. On our service, you can track delivery statistics in real time through the Prices section, where up-to-date information on specific platforms is provided for each type of number (for example, for Telegram, WhatsApp or other applications). These figures are formed based on the analysis of thousands of daily operations and help you choose the optimal solution for your task.It is important to understand that problems with the delivery of codes are often related not to the quality of the number, but to the nuances of the registration process. The use of temporary numbers is fundamentally different from personal mobile numbers due to the specifics of their technical implementation.One of the critical factors is the mismatch between the geolocation of the number and your physical location. For example, if you purchase a US number while in Russia, services like Google or Telegram may automatically block the code from being sent, interpreting this as suspicious activity.To minimize the risks, we strongly recommend that you follow two key steps before registering. First, be sure to clear the cache of the browser or mobile application through which verification is performed. The accumulated data may cause conflicts when setting session parameters, especially if you have previously tried to register with other numbers. Secondly, always use a VPN or proxy server corresponding to the country of the purchased number. This creates a consistent digital environment: the IP address, time zone, and language settings begin to match the phone number, which reduces the risk of security algorithms being triggered.Remember that even under ideal conditions, 100% deliverability is unattainable due to the specifics of telecom operators and the policies of target platforms. However, compliance with these rules increases the success of operations, which is confirmed by our statistics.

In activation mode, to receive an additional SMS, simply click the circular button with the arrow, then request the SMS again from the desired service.In rental mode, all incoming messages are automatically displayed in the modal window, and no further action is required.

On average, SMS messages arrive to the number within 5 minutes. If your number does not accept the code, we have prepared some recommendations for you that may help you:Change the IP addressThis is important because SMS reception may depend on your IP address. Try using a VPN or proxy of the country whose number you bought. This is often the problem.Clear your browser or application (Depending on where you register)Delete cookies, cache, and browser history or application cache. This helps to avoid technical failures of the application/browser.Enable incognito mode (If you are using a browser)Use it for registration — it often solves the problem.Change the operatorTry to buy a number from another mobile operator, sometimes this solves the problem.Restart your device.This can help you avoid technical failures in the operation of the application or the website on which you register.Try using an alternative registration application.Sometimes it solves the problem.For convenience, the algorithm for using recommendations when registering in a mobile application is shown below.Close your app before changing the phone number country. Then:Open the smartphone settings, go to the "Applications" section, and find the Name.Click "Clear Data" and "Clear Cache".Connect the VPN/Proxy of the country the number belongs to.Important! If you do not change the VPN/Proxy before restarting or do not clear the application data, it may not send the SMS code.If nothing helps, you can cancel the activation — the money for the number will be returned to your balance, and you can try again. Also, if the activation period of the number has expired, but it has not received an SMS, the funds for the number will be refunded automatically.There is a 15-minute rule in the case of using a rental number. If the number did not receive an SMS or turned out to be unsuitable for registration, you can cancel the number with a refund to the balance within 15 minutes after purchase. At the end of the 15-minute period, it is impossible to return the funds for the number, regardless of whether he accepted the SMS or not.To cancel activation or rental, click on the red cross on the "Activation" or "Rental" tab, depending on the number mode.
