⚠️ Important: Public Numbers Have Limitations

  • Shared access: Anyone can see messages sent to these numbers
  • Limited reliability: Many services filter public/VoIP numbers
  • No privacy: Don’t use for sensitive accounts or personal data
  • Temporary: Numbers rotate and may be rate-limited or blocked

For privacy and higher acceptance, use a private real-SIM number (7-day money-back guarantee).

What “Free SMS Verification” Means (and When to Use It)

Free numbers are best for quick tests, low-risk sign-ups, and trying new apps. Because the inboxes are public, they may be filtered by popular platforms and aren’t suitable for long-term logins or 2FA. If reliability and privacy matter, choose a private, non-VoIP real-SIM number you can keep.

Need reliability? Real-SIM numbers deliver codes more consistently and keep messages private to you. 7-day money-back guarantee.

Popular Platforms That Use SMS Verification

Examples across categories (compatibility varies; many filter public/VoIP numbers):

  • Social & messaging: WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, X (Twitter), Discord
  • Marketplaces & gig: eBay, Amazon, Facebook Marketplace, Uber/Uber Eats, Lyft, DoorDash
  • Travel & stays: Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, major airlines
  • Email & accounts: Google, Apple ID, Microsoft, Yahoo
  • Retail & delivery: Walmart, Target, UPS, USPS, FedEx

If a platform blocks public numbers, switch to a private real-SIM for higher acceptance.

Free vs. Real SIM (What’s Right for You?)

FeatureFree (Public/VoIP)Real SIM (Private)
PrivacyShared inbox, public✅ Private inbox, yours only
AcceptanceInconsistent; many sites block VoIP✅ Higher acceptance on popular apps
ReliabilityMay be rate-limited or recycled✅ Stable number you can keep
Use casesTesting, low-stakes trials✅ Main accounts, recovery, business

Delivery Tips (For Better Results)

Try another number if the first one is busy

If a code doesn’t arrive within ~120 seconds, switch to another number from the list.

Use a number from the same region as the service

Match the country (US for US-only, UK for UK-only) to improve deliverability.

Avoid reusing the same public number repeatedly

Repeated sign-ups on the same shared number are often rate-limited or blocked.

For repeat logins and 2FA, switch to a private rental

Keep one number for months with a long-term real-SIM plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these numbers really free?

Yes. They’re public and shared—great for quick OTPs, not for sensitive accounts.

Do free numbers work everywhere?

Not always. Many platforms filter public/VoIP numbers. If blocked, use a private real-SIM.

Are these non-VoIP?

Public lists may include VoIP. Our private rentals are real-SIM (non-VoIP).

No for the free list; yes if you want to rent a private number.

Is this legal?

Yes—use responsibly and follow each service’s terms. We don’t support fraud or abuse.
