Why you need a number for SMS
Many services ask you to confirm sign-up with an SMS code. You do not always want to share your personal number, and keeping a second SIM is inconvenient. A virtual number solves it: you get a number in the country you need, the service sends a code to it, and the code shows up in your bot.
How to buy a number
- Open the bot and pick the SMS section.
- Find the service - Telegram, WhatsApp, VK, a marketplace or anything else.
- Choose a country: the bot shows the price and availability.
- Pay - the number appears instantly.
- Enter the number in the service and wait: the code arrives right in the bot.
If the code does not arrive
You do not lose money. If no SMS arrives during the number's lifetime, the amount returns to your balance automatically. A couple of minutes after purchase you can cancel with a refund or replace the number if no SMS has come yet.
Renting a number
If you need codes regularly, rent a number for a day or longer. Every SMS during the rental lands in the bot.
