Benefits of Using a Temporary Phone Number for Acko
Acko is a leading digital insurance company in India, offering car, health, and other insurance policies through a streamlined online platform. To get a quote, buy a policy, or manage your account, you need to register with a phone number. Given the sensitive nature of insurance data, a virtual phone number is a crucial tool for protecting your personal information.
Safeguard Your Sensitive Personal Data
An insurance profile contains a vast amount of your personal data—from your vehicle and address details to your health information. A virtual number allows you to manage your Acko policy without linking this sensitive data directly to your primary, lifelong phone number. This adds a powerful layer of privacy and helps protect your information from being exposed in data breaches.
Avoid Cross-Promotional Sales Calls
Once you purchase one type of insurance, you can become a target for marketing for other products like health, life, or travel insurance from the same company or its partners. A temporary number acts as a filter. It ensures you receive the essential communications about your current policy, while shielding your personal line from a wide range of unsolicited sales calls and promotional messages.
Maintain Control Over Your Information
A temporary number gives you greater control over your personal data. It allows you to securely get quotes and manage your policies as needed, without permanently tethering your most sensitive information to the phone number you use for everything else. It’s a smart strategy for maintaining your privacy in the digital age.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, our numbers are specifically designed for Acko registration. Acko requires a phone number for account creation, and our virtual numbers provide a reliable way to receive the SMS verification code.
Yes, you can. SMSFAST allows you to rent multiple virtual numbers, meaning you can use a unique number for each Acko account.
First, double-check that you've copied the SMS code precisely as it appeared in your SMSFAST account and entered it correctly into Acko. Also, ensure the number you used is still active and within its valid time frame.
If the issue persists, the number might have been flagged by Acko. In such cases, we recommend simply renting a new temporary phone number and repeating the registration process.
There may be a slight delay in network delivery at times. Please give it a minute or two.
- Request resend: On the Acko interface, look for the option to resend the code. This often prompts a new SMS message to be sent to your number.
- Ensure you are actively viewing the SMSFAST interface for the specific virtual number you rented, as the SMS message will appear there.
If the code still doesn't arrive after a resend attempt, the temporary number might be experiencing an issue with that specific service. We recommend canceling the current number (if no SMS has been received, you typically won't be charged) and renting a new disposable number from SMSFAST.
