What a second phone number is
A second phone number is a number you use next to your own, so the people and services you give it to never see your personal one. Here it is a virtual number: no SIM card, no second phone and nothing to install. You read its messages in your account from any device, and the Telegram bot can send you each new code if you connect it.
Ways to get a second number
- A calling app with a number: Cheap and quick to set up. Many sign-up forms refuse numbers from calling apps, and the number can go back to the app's pool when you stop paying.
- An eSIM: A real mobile line on the phone you already have. It needs a phone that supports eSIM and a carrier plan, often with an ID check, and it belongs to the carrier's country.
- A second SIM card: A real line with its own plan. You need a dual-SIM phone or a second phone, a second contract or prepaid plan, and the line goes wherever the phone goes.
- A private virtual number from us: No SIM, no phone, no contract. A real mobile or local number, depending on the country, issued to you alone for 28 days. You see the countries in stock and the price before you buy. It receives SMS and calls; it does not send them.
When a second number helps
- Sign-ups and verification codes: Keep your personal number out of the databases of every site and app you try.
- Selling and marketplaces: Buyers reach you on the second number; when the deal is done, let the number lapse.
- Dating: Share a number that is not the one your friends, bank and family use.
- A number of another country: Get a number of a country you are not in, whenever that country has numbers in stock.
- Work and projects: Give each project or client its own number and keep their accounts apart.
- Account security: Keep a number only for codes, separate from the one on your SIM card. While auto-renew is on, it stays yours.
Is a second phone number a fake number?
No. A fake number only looks valid: it was generated, belongs to no one or to a stranger, and receives nothing. A number from us is a real number on a mobile or local range, depending on the country, issued to you alone. Whether a particular service accepts it is that service's decision, which is why you can check the number on the service before you buy.
What a second number costs
The price depends on the country and is shown next to each country before you pay.
From $8.00 for 28 days. Renews only while auto-renew is on.
A number is final and non-refundable once issued; refunds cover only unused balance or a verified technical fault on our side.
How to get your second number
- Choose the service: Pick the app or site you need the number for.
- Pick a country: Countries with numbers in stock come first, with their price. Others offer a live check, and you can ask to be told when they are back.
- Check the number on your service: Enter the number on the service's sign-up form. If it says the code was sent by SMS, the number passed the first check.
- Buy it and read the code: The number is yours for 28 days. Request the code again and read it in your account.
