# VERIFICATION COMPATIBILITY (51 services)

Ratings are measured over a rolling 90 days. "Not supported" entries are listed deliberately: those services reject virtual number ranges and no provider can change that.


## Telegram
URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/telegram/
Category: Messaging
Compatibility: Works everywhere (measured 98%)
Code length: 5 digits
Typical delivery: 12 seconds
Re-verification: rare
Best countries: united-kingdom, netherlands, romania, poland, united-states
Also known as: telegram sms, telegram otp, telegram verification code

Telegram accepts no-KYC mobile numbers in every country we sell. Registration takes one SMS, and the account stays active as long as you keep the line.

Caveat: Telegram sends the login code in-app first if you are already signed in elsewhere. Keep the line at least 12 months — losing it can lock you out if you have not set a 2FA password.

## WhatsApp
URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/whatsapp/
Category: Messaging
Compatibility: Works — pick the right country (measured 94%)
Code length: 6 digits
Typical delivery: 25 seconds
Re-verification: periodic
Best countries: united-kingdom, germany, france, brazil, mexico
Also known as: whatsapp sms, whatsapp otp, whatsapp business verification

No-KYC mobile lines work with WhatsApp, but only on mobile ranges; a landline triggers the voice-call code, which we also receive.

Caveat: WhatsApp re-verifies periodically. If the line expires, the account is lost. For a main account, pick a 12-month term.

## Signal
URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/signal/
Category: Messaging
Compatibility: Works — pick the right country (measured 94%)
Code length: 6 digits
Typical delivery: 20 seconds
Re-verification: never
Best countries: united-kingdom, switzerland, netherlands, germany, iceland
Also known as: signal sms, signal registration, signal without sim

Signal registrations succeed on no-KYC mobile numbers, and it never re-verifies afterwards. This makes it the best fit for a privacy line.

Caveat: Immediately after signup, set a Signal registration lock PIN. Without it, the next holder of the number could claim the account.

## Viber
URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/viber/
Category: Messaging
Compatibility: Works everywhere (measured 98%)
Code length: 6 digits
Typical delivery: 18 seconds
Re-verification: never
Best countries: ukraine, greece, philippines, hungary, bulgaria
Also known as: viber sms, viber code

Viber works on every mobile range we sell; re-verification never happens.

## WeChat
URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/wechat/
Category: Messaging
Compatibility: Sometimes works (measured 61%)
Code length: 6 digits
Typical delivery: 40 seconds
Re-verification: frequent
Best countries: hong-kong, malaysia, singapore, taiwan
Also known as: wechat sms, weixin verification

WeChat accepts some no-KYC ranges but usually also demands a scan-assist from an existing account, which no number provider can supply.

Caveat: The scan-assist step is what fails, and it fails often. If it does within 24 hours, we refund the line. Expect friction.

## LINE
URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/line/
Category: Messaging
Compatibility: Works — pick the right country (measured 94%)
Code length: 6 digits
Typical delivery: 22 seconds
Re-verification: rare

Japanese, Thai and Taiwanese mobile ranges handle LINE registrations reliably.

## KakaoTalk
URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/kakaotalk/
Category: Messaging
Compatibility: Sometimes works (measured 61%)
Code length: 4 digits
Typical delivery: 35 seconds
Re-verification: periodic
Best countries: south-korea
Also known as: kakao sms, kakaotalk verification

Korean mobile ranges are required for KakaoTalk, and new devices trigger re-verification.

Caveat: Expect thin Korean stock and prices that show it. Check availability first.

## Zalo
URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/zalo/
Category: Messaging
Compatibility: Works — pick the right country (measured 94%)
Code length: 6 digits
Typical delivery: 28 seconds
Re-verification: rare
Best countries: vietnam
Also known as: zalo sms, zalo otp

Vietnamese mobile ranges are our deep stock, and they work for Zalo.

## Discord
URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/discord/
Category: Messaging

Typical delivery: 20 seconds
Re-verification: periodic

Also known as: instagram sms, instagram otp, instagram phone verification

At signup and for 2FA, Instagram takes no-KYC mobile lines. Landline ranges get rejected.

Caveat: On suspicious logins, Meta re-checks numbers. Keep the line as long as the account lives.

URL: https://hushsms.com/sms-verification/facebook/
Category: Social
Compatibility: Works — pick the right country (measured 94%)
Code length: 6 digits

Typical delivery: 30 seconds
Re-verification: periodic
Best countries: united-kingdom, romania, poland, india, indonesia
Also known as: gmail sms, google voice verification, google account phone

Google verification is the hardest mainstream case. Fresh, never-recycled mobile ranges pass; heavily reused ones do not.

Caveat: For Google we keep a dedicated never-recycled pool. At checkout select "Never-recycled". It costs more and is the only pool we refund on.

Typical delivery: 32 seconds
Re-verification: periodic
Best countries: united-states, united-kingdom, japan, singapore

Best countries: turkey, brazil, poland, vietnam, south-africa
Also known as: binance sms, binance 2fa phone

Binance accepts no-KYC mobile numbers for SMS 2FA on an existing account. It will not let you skip its own identity verification.

Caveat: A phone number is not KYC. Binance still requires government ID for withdrawals above its unverified tier — no number provider changes that.

# GLOSSARY (18 terms)

URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/
Every term also has its own URL, listed under each entry.

## No-KYC phone number
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/no-kyc-number/
A phone line activated without submitting any identity document, legal name, address or payment card.

KYC — know your customer — is the identity verification regulated providers must perform. A no-KYC number is one sold outside that regime, typically by a reseller leasing carrier ranges and settling in cryptocurrency. It is a real, dialable number; the absence is of paperwork, not of function.

See also: KYC, DID number, Virtual phone number

## KYC
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/kyc/
Know Your Customer: a regulatory duty to verify identity before a service is provided.

Banks, payment institutions and, in many jurisdictions, mobile network operators issuing SIM cards must apply KYC. Number resale occupies a legal space where this requirement does not universally apply. Control of a line, not identity, is what passing an SMS check proves; a phone number is never itself KYC.

See also: No-KYC phone number

## Virtual phone number
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/virtual-number/
A real, dialable number. Its calls and messages terminate to software instead of to a SIM card in a handset.

The number exists in the national numbering plan like any other. What differs is the last hop: instead of routing to a mobile switching centre and a SIM, it routes to a gateway that hands the message to a web panel or an API. Senders cannot tell the difference from the routing alone.

See also: DID number, VoIP vs non-VoIP number

## DID number
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/did/
A Direct Inward Dialing number reaches a specific endpoint directly, without a switchboard; each one is individually routable.

What retail calls a virtual number, wholesale calls a DID. Carriers allocate DID blocks to providers, who resell individual numbers. These are the ranges a provider means when it says "we hold ranges".

See also: Virtual phone number, National numbering plan

## VoIP vs non-VoIP number
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/voip-vs-non-voip/
A classification based on which block a number was allocated from, either a VoIP block or a mobile carrier range; the delivery technology does not matter.

Range databases are queried by services, and this single distinction determines most verification outcomes. Mobile-range numbers are treated as people; VoIP-block numbers as disposable. Although both may be delivered over IP, the allocation, not the transport, defines the classification. A provider that will not tell you which block you are buying is almost certainly selling the second.

See also: National numbering plan, Range database

## National numbering plan
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/numbering-plan/
The published allocation of every number range in a country, defining which prefixes are mobile, geographic, toll-free or premium.

Maintained by each country's regulator and published openly. It is why a number starting +33 6 is recognisably a French mobile and +33 1 is a Paris landline. Verification systems check submitted numbers against these plans, which is why the numbering data on our country pages is worth reading before you buy.

See also: E.164, VoIP vs non-VoIP number

## E.164
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/e164/
The ITU standard for international phone number format: a plus sign, a country code, and the national number, up to fifteen digits total.

Written +33612345678, never 0612345678. The domestic trunk prefix — the leading 0 in most of Europe, 1 in North America, 8 in Russia and Kazakhstan — is dropped in E.164. Entering a number with the trunk prefix intact is the single most common reason a verification code never arrives.

See also: National numbering plan

## OTP
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/otp/
A one-time password is a short numeric code, valid for a few minutes, sent to prove control of a phone number or email address.

Typically four to seven digits. The code proves you can receive messages at that number at that moment — nothing more. It is not identity verification, which is why SMS OTP is considered a weak second factor by security professionals and a strong one by product managers.

See also: A2P messaging, SIM swap

## A2P messaging
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/a2p/
A2P (application-to-person) SMS is automated messaging from a system to a person, different from person-to-person texts.

Every verification code counts as A2P. Carriers route, price, and filter it separately from ordinary texts, and several countries require senders to register A2P traffic. When a valid number receives no code, the usual cause is A2P filtering between the aggregator and the destination.

See also: OTP, Sender ID

## Sender ID
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/sender-id/
The alphanumeric or numeric string shown as the origin of an SMS, such as a brand name instead of a number.

Some countries permit arbitrary alphanumeric sender IDs; others require pre-registration or forbid them. This is why the same service appears as a brand name in one country and a random short number in another.

See also: A2P messaging

## Range database
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/range-database/
A commercial dataset mapping number ranges to carriers, line types and risk scores, queried by services deciding whether to accept a number.

Published numbering plans form the basis, then portability data and observed behaviour are layered on top. When a service says "this number is not supported", it queried such a database and received an unfavourable answer. Providers cannot change that result; they can only offer ranges that score well in those databases.

See also: VoIP vs non-VoIP number, Recycled number

## Recycled number
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/recycled-number/
A recycled number is one previously held by someone else and reissued, potentially carrying that holder's existing service registrations.

Recycling is normal across the whole telecoms industry — carriers reissue disconnected numbers within months. The practical consequence is "this number is already registered" errors on services the previous holder used. Never-recycled pools exist to avoid this and cost more because each number can only be sold once.

See also: Never-recycled pool

## Never-recycled pool
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/clean-pool/
A set of numbers that have never been allocated to any prior holder and have no registration history on any service.

Required for services that check registration history aggressively — Google above all, and Apple to a lesser extent. The premium reflects genuine scarcity: a never-recycled number can be sold exactly once and stops being one the moment it is used.

See also: Recycled number

## eSIM
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/esim/
An eSIM is an embedded SIM profile downloaded over the air to a device, replacing the need for a physical card.

With an eSIM you still hold a SIM: mobile data plus a number, issued under whatever conditions the seller required. Anonymity is not built in, eSIM-capable hardware is needed, and a free profile slot must be available. A virtual number asks for only a browser.

See also: Virtual phone number

## SIM swap
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/sim-swap/
A SIM-swap attack is when someone persuades a mobile carrier to port a victim's number onto a SIM the attacker controls.

The dominant real-world attack against SMS two-factor authentication, and the reason security people dislike SMS OTP. It is a social-engineering attack on carrier support staff, which is why it works against numbers backed by large call centres and rather less well against numbers with no account and no support line to socially engineer.

See also: OTP

## Number portability
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/porting/
The regulatory right to keep a phone number when changing provider.

Portability is why range databases are imperfect: a number allocated to one carrier may now be served by another. It also means the range a number was issued from does not always describe who serves it today, which is a source of inconsistent verification results across services.

See also: Range database

## Underpaid coverage
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/underpaid-coverage/
Underpaid coverage is a tolerance band in a crypto invoice inside which a slightly-short payment still settles the order.

Wallets often deduct the network fee from the typed amount instead of adding it, so the merchant receives marginally less than invoiced. The invoice fails without coverage, leaving funds in limbo. A two to three percent coverage setting absorbs essentially every wallet fee quirk.

See also: Invoice lifetime

## Invoice lifetime
URL: https://hushsms.com/glossary/invoice-lifetime/
An invoice lifetime is the window during which a crypto invoice holds its quoted exchange rate and remains payable.

The window is finite because the merchant absorbs the price risk. Paying after expiry routes funds to a dead invoice, which then needs manual reconciliation. At ninety minutes, ours comfortably outlasts a Bitcoin confirmation at normal fee levels.

# FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

URL: https://hushsms.com/faq/

## What is a no-KYC phone number?
A no-KYC phone number is a real, working phone line you activate without submitting any identity document, name, address or payment card. It is allocated from a carrier's range inside a country's national numbering plan, receives SMS and voice calls like any other line, and is paid for in cryptocurrency. The only thing missing is the paperwork.

## Are these real numbers or VoIP relays?
They are real numbers allocated from carrier ranges in each country's national numbering plan. That distinction matters: verification systems check submitted numbers against range databases and treat mobile-range allocations differently from VoIP blocks. We sell from mobile ranges, which is why our acceptance rates are what they are.

## Do I need an account?
No. Checkout asks for an email only so we can send the panel link, and you can decline even that — choose the no-email option and we show a one-time access token instead. There is no registration step, no password and no profile.

## How fast is the number live?
Median time from confirmed payment to a working line is 41 seconds. Provisioning is fully automated — there is no manual review queue and no business-hours dependency.

## How many countries do you cover?
68 countries at present, across Europe, North and South America, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Each country page lists the real numbering-plan data — dial code, mobile prefixes and geographic codes — so you can confirm the format before buying.

## How does payment work without an account or ID?
You configure the line, and checkout generates a cryptocurrency invoice for the exact amount. Send it from any wallet. After one network confirmation the line provisions automatically. No card, no bank, no billing name, and no account to create — the payment is the entire authentication.

## Which cryptocurrencies can I pay with?
34 assets including Monero, Bitcoin on-chain and over Lightning, USDT on three chains, Ethereum, Litecoin, Solana, Tron, USDC, BNB and Dogecoin. If privacy is the reason you are here, use Monero — transparent chains leave a permanent public record of the payment.

## Is there a setup fee?
No. There is no setup fee at any term, on any country, in any pool. Some competitors charge up to $10 on the first invoice, which on a short term can cost more than the line itself.

## What if I send slightly the wrong amount?
Invoices carry a 2.5% underpaid-coverage band, so a payment that lands marginally short — which happens when a wallet deducts the network fee from the amount rather than adding it — still settles. Larger discrepancies are reconciled manually; mail support@hushsms.com with the transaction hash.

## Can I cancel any time?
Yes. Terms do not auto-renew and there is no subscription to cancel — when a term ends, the line simply stops unless you renew it. Nothing is stored to bill against, so there is nothing that could charge you unexpectedly.

## Can I receive SMS verification codes from WhatsApp, Telegram or Signal?
Yes. All three accept no-KYC mobile numbers and are among the most reliable verifications we handle. Telegram works in every country we sell; Signal and WhatsApp both work too, but country choice matters more, and WhatsApp requires a mobile range rather than a landline. Set a Signal registration lock and a Telegram 2FA password immediately after signing up, or losing the line later means losing the account.

## Will this work for my bank?
No, and we will not sell you a line for one. Regulated financial institutions — PayPal, Revolut, Wise, retail banks — check numbers against carrier databases and reject virtual allocations at onboarding. They also require a government ID that no phone number substitutes for. Any provider promising otherwise is selling a line that will fail.

## Why do Google verifications fail more often?
Google checks registration history as well as line type, so a number previously used to create an account is rejected even though it is a valid mobile. Our never-recycled pool exists for this — those numbers have never been allocated to anyone, which is why they carry a 1.45× multiplier and why it is the only pool we will refund on for Google specifically.

## What if a service blocks my number?
Tell us within 24 hours and you get your money back, or a replacement line in a different country, whichever you prefer. We would rather refund a $6 order than argue about it. The exception is services we already list as unsupported — those are flagged before you buy precisely so this does not happen.

## Can I send SMS as well as receive?
Two-way SMS is included on every line at every term, not an upgrade. Several providers in this category sell receive-only lines without saying so until you try to reply.

## What data do you actually keep?
We store a country, a line type, a term, and a payment confirmation. Identity documents, names, addresses and card details have no field on our systems, so none are collected. Message bodies are deleted 24 hours after delivery by default. Access logs rotate hourly in memory instead of being written to disk.

## What would you hand over if compelled?
Everything we hold, which is a country, a term and a payment confirmation. We comply with valid legal process from our jurisdiction — refusing would be a lie we could not keep. The protection is architectural rather than adversarial: we cannot produce identity records because none were ever created.

## Are virtual numbers traceable?
The number traces to us, since number allocation is public infrastructure. Whether it traces to you depends entirely on what we retained, and we retain no identity, no payment instrument and no persistent IP record. Note that a clean number used from your home IP on an account bearing your real name is not private in any meaningful sense; the number is rarely the weak link.

## Do you log IP addresses?
Not persistently. Every web server sees an IP by necessity; ours holds them in memory for rate-limiting and rotates them hourly without writing to disk. There is no historical IP log to search, subpoena or leak.

## How much does a number cost?
From $2.25 per month on a twelve-month term, with no setup fee. Pricing is a published formula: base rate × country tier × line type × term × pool. The full arithmetic and a live calculator are on the pricing page.

## Can I buy just one verification code?
Yes. One-shot codes start at $0.29 and the number is released the moment the code lands. Use them for accounts you will never touch again — but if the service can re-verify later (WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, Apple), rent the line instead, or you will lose the account when it asks again.

## Is a longer term cheaper?
Substantially. Twelve months carries a 0.68 multiplier against monthly — a 32% reduction on the effective monthly rate — because a line we do not have to reprovision every thirty days costs us less to run.

## Is this legal?
Renting and using a virtual phone number is legal in the great majority of jurisdictions, and the service itself is ordinary telecoms resale. What you do with a number is governed by the law where you are and by our acceptable use policy, which prohibits fraud, impersonation, harassment and spam. A handful of countries mandate SIM registration for all lines; if you are in one, that obligation is yours to know.

## What are you not willing to sell to?
Fraud, impersonation, harassment, spam, and anything targeting a specific individual are banned. Valid abuse reports are actioned within 24 hours and the line is terminated without refund. A provider that tolerates abuse loses its carrier ranges, and then nobody gets a number.

# ANSWERS (38)

One question per URL, each with the verdict in the first sentence and the reasoning under it. Where the honest answer is no, it says no in the first four words — those entries are the useful ones, and they are the reason the rest can be believed. Nothing here contradicts the FAQ above; that corpus is the source material.

## What is a no-KYC phone number?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/what-is-a-no-kyc-phone-number/
Topics: basics, legal

A no-KYC phone number is a real, working phone line activated without submitting any identity document, legal name, address or payment card. It is allocated from a carrier's range inside a country's national numbering plan, receives SMS and voice calls like any other line, and is paid for in cryptocurrency. HushSMS sells them in 68 countries. The only thing missing is the paperwork.

KYC — know your customer — is the identity check that regulated providers are obliged to perform. It binds hard to banks and payment institutions, and in most countries to mobile operators issuing SIM cards. It does not bind universally to the resale of numbers, and that gap is the legal space this whole category operates in. So the line is ordinary telecoms in every respect a carrier would recognise: same numbering plan, same routing, same delivery path. What is absent is a customer file, and the absence is administrative rather than technical.

## Are these real numbers or VoIP relays?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/are-these-real-numbers-or-voip/
Topics: basics, verification

Real numbers from carrier ranges inside national numbering plans. HushSMS uses mobile ranges, not VoIP blocks, so range database queries classify them as mobile. Last-hop delivery goes over IP, like most business SMS. Allocation, not transport, is what determines the classification.

Every serious verification flow does the same lookup: take the submitted number, find the range it belongs to, read off the line type. A mobile-range allocation reads as a person. A VoIP-block allocation reads as disposable, because historically it was. Nothing about the message path changes that verdict, which is why "it is delivered over the internet" is not the objection people think it is. The practical test for any provider in this category is whether they will tell you which block you are buying from before you pay; the ones that will not are almost always selling the second kind.

## Do I need an account?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/do-i-need-an-account/
Topics: basics, privacy

No. No registration, password or profile. Checkout asks only for an email so the panel link has a destination; decline to give one and a one-time access token is shown instead.

An account is a database row that joins every purchase you have ever made to a login you reuse elsewhere. Building one would create exactly the record the rest of the architecture exists to avoid, so there is nowhere for it to live. The payment is the authentication: the invoice proves the order, the order provisions the line, and nothing needs to know who paid. The cost of that trade is real and worth stating — a token is a bearer credential, and losing it means losing panel access to the line, with no reset flow to fall back on.

## How fast is the number live?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/how-fast-is-the-number-live/
Topics: basics, payment

Median time from confirmed payment to a working line is 41 seconds. HushSMS provisions automatically end to end: there is no manual review queue, no business-hours dependency and no approval step a human could be slow about.

Almost all of that elapsed time is the blockchain, not us. Solana and Tron confirm in seconds, Lightning effectively instantly, Bitcoin in minutes at normal fee levels — pick the asset accordingly if you are in a hurry. The provisioning itself is a write to a routing table and a row in a stock ledger, which takes milliseconds. Providers with slower activation are usually running a fraud review, and a fraud review is a thing you only need when you have collected identity to review.

## How many countries can I get a number in?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/how-many-countries-are-covered/
Topics: basics

HushSMS sells numbers in 68 countries across Europe, North and South America, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Every one of them receives SMS and inbound voice. Each country page publishes the real numbering-plan data — dial code, mobile prefixes, geographic area codes and national digit count — so the format can be checked before anything is paid.

Coverage in this category is quoted loosely, and a provider claiming 150 countries is usually counting ones where a code sometimes arrives. The honest unit is a range we hold stock in and can provision from without asking anyone. Depth matters more than breadth once you are past the obvious markets: a country with a handful of numbers left will sell out of the pool you want and leave you with the pool you do not. Where a country appears on the site, the numbering data is the regulator's, published and checkable; the tiers and stock figures are ours.

## Can I receive SMS without a SIM card?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/can-i-receive-sms-without-a-sim-card/
Topics: basics, verification

Yes. A phone number is an entry in a routing table rather than a physical object, so the entry can point at a gateway instead of at a SIM in a handset. HushSMS rents numbers whose inbound SMS terminates in a browser panel and, if you want it, a webhook — no phone, no SIM tray, no roaming. To the sender it is an ordinary mobile number that delivered.

Delivery notifications, two-factor systems and support lines all terminate SMS to software, over the same SS7 and SMPP paths as a message to a handset. The only part that differs is the last hop, and the sending network cannot see it. Three things break it, none of them the missing SIM: the service rejects the range outright, the message gets filtered as application-to-person traffic somewhere upstream, or the number was recycled and a previous holder already registered.

## What is the difference between a VoIP and a non-VoIP number?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/what-is-the-difference-between-voip-and-non-voip/
Topics: basics, verification

A non-VoIP number is allocated from a mobile carrier range; a VoIP number is allocated from a block reserved for internet telephony. Verification systems query range databases and treat the first as a person and the second as disposable, which is why the classification decides most acceptance outcomes. Both may be delivered over the internet — the label describes the allocation, not the technology. HushSMS sells only from mobile ranges.

Inherited from an era when a VoIP block genuinely meant a free number anybody could mint by the thousand, the distinction now carries risk scoring that never got revisited. It is imperfect in both directions: number portability means a range no longer describes who serves the line today, and plenty of mobile-range traffic passes through the same IP infrastructure as VoIP. None of that helps you, because the service is not going to relitigate its rule for one signup. Practically, this single field explains most of what people experience as a provider being good or bad at verification.

## Is a virtual number the same as a burner phone?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/is-a-virtual-number-the-same-as-a-burner/
Topics: basics

No. A burner is a handset and a prepaid SIM you throw away; a virtual number is a line rented for a term and delivered to software, with no hardware involved at all. The practical difference is that a burner needs you to be physically present in a shop — increasingly with ID, since most countries now mandate SIM registration — while a virtual line is bought from anywhere in about 41 seconds.

The words get used interchangeably because both answer "I do not want to give out my real number", but they fail differently. A burner dies when you stop topping it up and takes any account verified against it along; a rented line dies when the term lapses, which is at least a date you know in advance. A burner is also a physical object that can be found on you, whereas a virtual line is a credential. Where the burner still wins is a country with no registration requirement and a use case where being off the internet entirely matters.

## Do you support voice calls, or only SMS?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/do-you-support-voice-calls/
Topics: basics

Voice is included on every HushSMS line in all 68 countries, not sold as an upgrade. Inbound calls ring through to the panel or forward to any number or SIP endpoint you own, at no extra charge. That matters for verification as well as for talking to people: services that fall back to a voice-read code when SMS fails — WhatsApp among them — still complete.

Voice is the capability that separates a rented line from a code marketplace, and it is why the two are not really substitutes. A number you hold for ninety seconds cannot take a callback from a courier, a buyer or a support desk. Forwarding is the feature most people end up using daily: calls land on the phone already in your pocket without that phone's number ever reaching the caller. Voicemail transcription is a paid add-on, included free from the six-month term, because transcription costs real money per minute and pretending otherwise just moves it into the base price.

## Can I forward calls and messages to my own phone?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/can-i-forward-calls-to-my-real-phone/
Topics: basics, privacy

Yes, and it costs nothing extra. Every HushSMS line forwards inbound calls to any number or SIP endpoint you own, and every inbound message is POSTed to a webhook and readable over the REST API as well as landing in the panel. The caller only ever sees the rented number; forwarding does not expose the destination.

Forwarding is what makes the separation strategy survivable in practice. Rent one long-term line, put it on every commercial account you already have, forward it, and you stop missing delivery calls while your real number stops appearing in the next breach. Two caveats worth knowing. Your own mobile carrier sees a call arriving, which is fine against data brokers and irrelevant against anyone with subpoena power over that carrier. And message bodies are dropped 24 hours after delivery by default, so if you need a paper trail, extend retention deliberately rather than assuming it is there.

## How do I get a UK phone number from abroad?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/how-do-i-get-a-uk-number-from-abroad/
Topics: basics, verification

Buy one online: HushSMS provisions British mobile numbers in the +44 7 range to anyone, anywhere, with no UK address, no UK bank account and no SIM. Select the United Kingdom at checkout, pay the crypto invoice, and the line is live in about 41 seconds from $5.22 a month on a twelve-month term. Nothing about the process requires you to be in the country or to have ever been.

For anything global, the UK is the default recommendation, and not for patriotic reasons: British mobile ranges are trusted by verification systems almost everywhere, stock is deep, and the country still has no mandatory SIM registration regime. The one thing that trips people is format. Domestically a British mobile is written 07700 900123; internationally it is +44 7700 900123, with the trunk zero dropped. Enter it with the zero intact and the code will not arrive, and you will spend an hour blaming the provider.

## Can two people have the same number at the same time?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/can-two-people-get-the-same-number/
Topics: basics, privacy, verification

Not at the same time. A number is allocated to one holder for the length of a term, and nobody else can receive its calls or messages while you hold it. Over time is a different question: once a standard line lapses it can be reissued, which is ordinary practice across the entire telecoms industry, and HushSMS's never-recycled pool exists for the cases where any prior holder is unacceptable.

Reuse is what produces the characteristic "this number is already registered" error — the previous holder signed up for the service you want, and the service remembers the number rather than the person. Never-recycled numbers avoid it by construction: they have never been allocated to anyone, which is why they carry a 1.45× multiplier and why they can only be sold once. The security implication runs the other way and is the one people forget. If you let a line go, whoever gets it next can trigger any password reset that still points at it, so set a Signal registration lock and a Telegram 2FA password on day one and treat the number as a credential you are renting.

## How does payment work without an account or ID?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/how-does-payment-work/
Topics: payment, basics

Checkout generates a cryptocurrency invoice for the exact amount, you send it from any wallet, and the line provisions automatically after one network confirmation. HushSMS never sees a card, a bank, a billing address or a name, because there is no field in the system that holds one. The payment is the entire authentication — nothing else is asked and nothing else is stored.

Card rails cannot work this way even if a merchant wanted them to. A card transaction carries an identity by design: the issuer knows who you are, the acquirer knows the merchant, and the chargeback system exists precisely to reverse that link. Crypto settles without any of that machinery, which is the entire reason this category prices in it. The invoice holds a fixed exchange rate for ninety minutes, so a price move while you are finding your wallet is our problem rather than yours, and a payment that lands marginally short still settles inside the coverage band.

## Which cryptocurrencies can I pay with?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/which-cryptocurrencies-can-i-pay-with/
Topics: payment, privacy

HushSMS accepts 34 assets, including Monero, Bitcoin on-chain and over Lightning, USDT on four chains, Ethereum, Litecoin, Solana, Tron, USDC, BNB and Dogecoin. If privacy is the reason you are buying at all, use Monero: every transparent chain leaves a permanent public record of the payment that can be correlated later by anyone who cares to.

Pick on two axes, and they do not point the same way. For settlement speed and fee, Lightning, Solana and Tron are all effectively free and confirm in seconds; on-chain Bitcoin is neither at busy times. For privacy, only Monero hides amounts and addresses at the protocol level, and the rest are permanent public ledgers whether or not anything currently links an address to you. Stablecoins add an issuer who can freeze balances at the contract level — academic for a phone line, worth knowing as a general habit. There is no asset that is best on all three counts, which is why the list is long rather than curated.

## Is there a setup fee?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/is-there-a-setup-fee/
Topics: pricing, payment

No. HushSMS charges no setup fee at any term, in any country, on any pool — the price shown at checkout is the whole price. The best-known competitor in this category charges $10 on the first invoice, which on a one-month order costs more than the line itself.

A setup fee is a pricing device rather than a cost recovery. Provisioning a line is an API call against a range we already hold, and it costs the same whether it happens on day one or on renewal. What the fee actually does is punish short terms, which conveniently makes the annual plan look better while making it expensive to test whether the service works for you at all. Charging nothing is the more defensible position and it costs us very little, because the customers who try a monthly line and stay are worth more than the ten dollars.

## What if I send slightly the wrong amount?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/what-if-i-underpay-the-invoice/
Topics: payment

HushSMS invoices carry a 2.5% underpaid-coverage band, so a payment that lands marginally short still settles and the line still provisions. That band exists because many wallets deduct the network fee from the amount typed rather than adding it on top. Larger discrepancies are reconciled by hand — mail support@hushsms.com with the transaction hash and it gets sorted.

This is the single most common way a crypto checkout fails anywhere, and it is almost never the customer's mistake. You type the invoiced amount, the wallet quietly subtracts its fee, and a few cents short arrives against a processor configured to accept exact amounts only. Without a coverage band the invoice expires unpaid while the funds sit on-chain, and someone has to open a ticket about eight dollars. The other half of the problem is timing: invoices hold their quoted rate for ninety minutes, and paying after that means the money arrives against a dead invoice and needs the same manual reconciliation.

## Is a Monero payment traceable?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/is-monero-payment-traceable/
Topics: payment, privacy

Monero transactions hide sender, recipient, and amount from public view through ring signatures, stealth addresses, and confidential transactions. HushSMS confirms only that the correct amount arrived. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins leave every payment as a permanent public record.

The honest caveats matter more than the headline. Privacy at the protocol level says nothing about the ends of the transaction: if you bought XMR on an exchange holding your passport and sent it straight to a merchant, the exchange knows you withdrew that amount at that moment, and that is a correlation nobody's cryptography removes. Chain surveillance firms market Monero-tracing capabilities, and while nothing credible demonstrates transaction-level deanonymisation in normal use today, "today" is doing real work in that sentence. Treat it as the strongest available option rather than a guarantee, and remember that for a phone line the payment is rarely the weakest link in your chain.

## Can I cancel any time?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/can-i-cancel-any-time/
Topics: payment, pricing

Yes — there is nothing to cancel. HushSMS terms do not auto-renew and there is no subscription running in the background, so when a term ends the line simply stops unless you choose to renew it. Nothing is stored to bill against, which means nothing can charge you unexpectedly.

The absence of stored billing details is not a customer-service policy, it is a consequence of taking crypto: a payment cannot be pulled, only pushed. Every recurring charge you have ever had to hunt through a settings page to kill required a merchant holding an instrument they could re-use, and no such instrument exists here. The flip side is real and cuts the other way. Nothing renews on your behalf either, so a line holding a WhatsApp or Telegram account needs a deliberate renewal before the end date, or it lapses along with everything verified against it.

## Can I get a refund?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/can-i-get-a-refund/
Topics: payment, verification

Yes, if you ask within 24 hours of activation and the line failed to do what it was sold for. HushSMS refunds in full when a number never provisions, when a service listed as supported does not deliver its code, or when we sold you a line for a service we should have flagged as unsupported. Refunds go back to the asset and address you paid from, at the original invoice's exchange rate.

The 24-hour window is short on purpose and the reason is evidential rather than commercial. A delivery failure is visible immediately; a week later it is indistinguishable from a change of mind, and a policy that cannot tell those apart ends up refusing both. Longer terms get a separate route — cancel a six-month or longer line within fourteen days of normal use and it is pro-rata. What is never refundable: services already published as unsupported, use in breach of the acceptable use policy, and a third party banning your account for reasons unrelated to the line working. Carrying the exchange-rate risk between payment and refund is ours, so you get back the value you paid rather than what the asset happens to be worth that morning.

## Can I get verification codes from WhatsApp, Telegram or Signal?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/can-i-verify-whatsapp-telegram-signal/
Topics: verification, basics

Yes. All three accept no-KYC mobile numbers and they are among the most reliable verifications HushSMS handles. Telegram registers in every country we sell; Signal registers reliably too but is more sensitive to which country you pick; WhatsApp needs a mobile range rather than a landline, and falls back to a voice-read code, which the panel also receives. Set a Signal registration lock and a Telegram 2FA password immediately after signing up, or losing the line later means losing the account.

The three services behave differently after signup, and that difference should guide your term choice. Signal never re-verifies, making it the cleanest for a privacy line. Telegram re-checks rarely, often sending login codes in-app if you are signed in elsewhere. WhatsApp re-verifies periodically, so a lapsed term will bite you. All three treat the number as the account key, meaning a one-shot code is the wrong purchase for any of them.

## Can I use a virtual number for WhatsApp?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/can-i-use-a-virtual-number-for-whatsapp/
Topics: verification

Yes. WhatsApp accepts no-KYC mobile numbers, and it is one of the verifications HushSMS handles most often. It has to be a mobile range — landline allocations fall through to the voice-call code, which the panel receives for you. WhatsApp re-verifies periodically, so if the line lapses the account goes with it; buy a twelve-month term if this is an account you intend to keep.

WhatsApp treats the number as the account identifier, not as a recovery method bolted onto a username. There is no login you can fall back on, which makes the term length the whole decision rather than a price question. Country choice matters less here than for Google, but not zero: the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Brazil and Mexico perform best in our stock, and an improbable pairing of number country and login location attracts risk scoring on Meta properties. Set a WhatsApp two-step PIN once you are in — it is the only thing standing between your account and the next holder of the number.

## Do virtual numbers work for Telegram?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/do-virtual-numbers-work-for-telegram/
Topics: verification

Yes, registration takes a single SMS in every country HushSMS sells, and the account stays live as long as you hold the line. No-KYC mobile numbers work with Telegram throughout the catalogue. Without a 2FA password, whoever holds the number after you can sign in as you, and Telegram will consider that legitimate, so set one immediately.

Telegram is the friendliest mainstream verification in this category because it was built around the number as an identity from the start, with no separate password to defend. That is also its failure mode. One quirk catches people out: if you are already signed in on another device, Telegram sends the login code in the app rather than by SMS, so the panel stays empty and the number looks broken when it is not. Codes that do come by SMS arrive in around twelve seconds. If you plan to keep the account, keep the line at least as long — Telegram will not care that you moved on.

## Will this work for my bank?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/will-this-work-for-my-bank/
Topics: verification, legal

No, and HushSMS will not sell you a line for one. Regulated financial institutions — PayPal, Revolut and Wise, and retail banks generally — check submitted numbers against carrier databases and reject virtual allocations at onboarding, and they require a government ID that no phone number substitutes for. Any provider promising bank verification is selling a line that will fail.

The reason is regulatory rather than technical, which is why no provider can engineer around it. Anti-money-laundering rules make the phone number part of a customer identity file that has to survive an audit, so an institution that accepted anonymous virtual lines would be failing an obligation it can be fined for. Expect the checks to get stricter rather than looser. There is a narrower thing that does work and gets confused with this: adding a virtual number as an SMS second factor on an account you already verified with real documents, which several exchanges permit. That is authentication, not identification, and it is the only part of regulated finance a number like this touches.

## Which services will reject a virtual number?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/which-services-reject-virtual-numbers/
Topics: verification, legal

Regulated finance and government portals, essentially. PayPal, Revolut and Wise sit on HushSMS's unsupported list — 3 of the 51 services in the directory — because they refuse virtual allocations at onboarding, and checkout flags them rather than taking the money. Everything else in the directory works, with country and pool choice mattering most for Google, Apple and WeChat.

The rejection happens in a range-database lookup that takes milliseconds and is invisible to you: the service asks what kind of number this is, gets an answer it does not like, and shows a generic error. There is nothing to appeal and nothing a provider can do about it, because the classification is a property of the allocation rather than of your line. Publishing the list costs us sales and is still obviously correct — a customer who buys for PayPal, fails, and demands a refund costs more than the order was worth, and tells everyone. The unsupported list is also the one place where our refund policy explicitly does not apply, precisely because we told you first.

## Why do Google verifications fail more often than others?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/why-do-google-verifications-fail/
Topics: verification, pricing

Google checks registration history as well as line type, so a number previously used to create an account is rejected even though it is a perfectly valid mobile. HushSMS keeps a never-recycled pool for exactly this: numbers never allocated to anyone before, which is why they carry a 1.45× multiplier and why it is the only pool we will refund on for Google specifically.

Google's abuse problem is bulk account creation, and reuse history is the cheapest signal. Carriers routinely recycle disconnected numbers within months, so most of the world's mobile stock carries some history. That makes "never allocated" genuinely scarce, not a marketing tier. A never-recycled number stops being one the moment you use it, so the premium is priced against a thing that can only be sold once. As a result, this is the one place in the catalogue where the cheap option for creating a Google account is a false economy.

## Why did my verification code not arrive?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/why-did-my-verification-code-not-arrive/
Topics: verification

Four causes account for nearly all cases. The number was entered with its domestic trunk zero instead of E.164 format. The service rejects that range outright. The message got filtered as application-to-person traffic between sender and destination. Or the code is queued behind a rate limit you triggered by requesting repeatedly. Check the format first; it is by far the most common. Requesting five more times worsens the other three.

Each symptom points somewhere specific. "Invalid number" means format or an outright range rejection, so re-check E.164 and then try another country. "Number already in use" means the line was recycled and a previous holder registered, which a never-recycled number fixes. No error and no code at all is the signature of A2P filtering, and changing destination country usually clears it, because the filtering lives on a route rather than on your line. A code that arrives late is aggregator queueing at peak: request once, wait two minutes, and resist the urge, because most services invalidate earlier codes and start rate-limiting when you hammer them. If none of it resolves within 24 hours of activation, that is what the refund window is for.

## What if a service blocks my number?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/what-if-a-service-blocks-my-number/
Topics: verification, payment

Tell HushSMS within 24 hours and you get your money back, or a replacement line in a different country — whichever you prefer. We would rather refund a $5.90 order than argue about it. The exception is services already published as unsupported, which are flagged before you buy precisely so this does not happen.

A blocked number is usually a range-level decision rather than anything about your specific line, so the fix that actually works is a different country rather than a different number in the same one. Rotating to a new number is free twice per term for that reason. The economics behind the policy are not complicated: a dispute costs more in fees and time than the order is worth, and a customer who got refunded without an argument comes back. What we cannot fix is a service that never accepted virtual ranges in the first place, which is why that list is published rather than discovered.

## Can I send SMS as well as receive?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/can-i-send-sms-as-well-as-receive/
Topics: verification, basics

Two-way SMS is on every HushSMS line at every term. Send and receive: no upgrade charge, and outbound works through the REST API. Some providers sell receive-only lines and do not mention it until you try to reply.

Outbound is harder to operate than inbound, which explains its quiet omission. Sending costs per message, invites abuse, and in several countries the sender must register before traffic routes. These are real constraints, but they apply to the route, not the customer tier. Charging for outbound therefore is a pricing decision in technical disguise. When a specific destination applies its own rules to application-originated traffic, every provider must obey that carrier rule.

## What data do you actually keep?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/what-data-do-you-keep/
Topics: privacy

We store the country, the line type, the term, and the fact that a payment arrived. The system has no fields for identity documents, names, addresses or card details. Message bodies are deleted 24 hours after delivery by default; access logs live in memory and rotate hourly instead of being written to disk.

The distinction that matters is between data a company chooses not to look at and data a company never wrote down. Only the second survives a change of ownership, an acquisition, a court order or a breach. Retention is the one thing you can extend deliberately — a 90-day message retention add-on exists for people who need a record — and it is opt-in rather than the default, because a default that keeps everything is how providers end up with a liability they never wanted. What we do keep exists for reasons we can state plainly: the country and term describe the line we owe you, and the payment confirmation stops the same invoice being spent twice.

## What would you hand over if compelled?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/what-would-you-hand-over-to-police/
Topics: privacy, legal

Everything HushSMS holds, which is a country, a term and a payment confirmation. We comply with valid legal process from our jurisdiction, Estonia — refusing would be a promise we could not keep, and a provider that promises it is either lying or has not been asked yet. The protection here is architectural rather than adversarial: we cannot produce identity records because none were ever created.

Most privacy claims in this industry amount to statements about intent, and intent collapses under a subpoena, a new owner or a bad quarter. A schema with no identity column is a different type of claim: it limits what any future version of the company can do under pressure. Be clear about what compulsion reaches: the number itself is public, and we are the range holder, so nobody should read this as the number being untraceable. The trail ends at a country, a term and a transaction, and the next step was never captured to hand over.

## Can a virtual number be traced back to me?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/are-virtual-numbers-traceable/
Topics: privacy

The number always traces to the provider: ranges are public and resolve to whoever leases them, so ours resolve to HushSMS. Tracing to you depends on what we retain, which is no identity, no payment instrument and no persistent IP record. A clean number used from your home IP on an account with your real name is not private: the number is rarely the weak link.

Deanonymisation in practice is almost never cryptographic or telecoms-level; it is a join between two things you did not think of as related. The recurring ones are mundane: the same browser fingerprint as everywhere else, a recovery email pointing at a personal address, a transparent-chain payment funded straight from an exchange holding your passport, or the anonymous number added to an account that already has your legal name on it. Each of those defeats the number regardless of how the number was bought. Threat-model the whole session or none of it, because the weakest element sets the outcome and it is usually not the part you paid for.

## Do you log IP addresses?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/do-you-log-ip-addresses/
Topics: privacy, legal

Not persistently. Every web server sees an IP by necessity; HushSMS holds them in memory for rate-limiting and rotates them hourly without ever writing them to disk. There is no historical IP log to search, subpoena or leak.

The reason any IP is processed at all is abuse: without rate-limiting, an open checkout is a free stress-testing target and a free credential-stuffing target. That need is satisfied by knowing what an address did in the last few minutes, and nothing about it requires a permanent record. Keeping one is simply the default in most stacks, which is how so many companies end up disclosing logs they had no business reason to hold. Worth being precise about the boundary: this covers what we store, not what your network path observes, and if the origin IP matters to your threat model then a VPN or Tor is the layer that addresses it, not us.

## How much does a virtual number cost?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/how-much-does-a-number-cost/
Topics: pricing

From $2.25 per month on a twelve-month term, with no setup fee. HushSMS prices every line from a published formula — base rate × country tier × line type × term × pool — so a mid-tier European mobile is $5.90 monthly and $4.01 a month if you take a year. A single one-shot verification code starts at $0.29.

Publishing the arithmetic rather than a tier table is a deliberate trade. It gives up the ability to quietly surcharge a country when demand spikes, and in exchange a buyer can check they are being charged what everyone else is, and a language model can quote the formula rather than a range. The multipliers are wholesale reality: premium destinations cost us more to hold, landlines cost less, longer terms save us reprovisioning, and never-recycled stock can only be sold once. Nothing is added on top at checkout — no setup fee, no per-line account fee, no charge for a second number.

## Can I buy just one verification code?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/can-i-buy-just-one-verification-code/
Topics: pricing, basics

Yes. One-shot codes start at $0.29 at HushSMS and the number is released the moment the code lands. Use them for accounts you will never touch again — but if the service can re-verify later, which includes WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram and Apple, rent the line instead or you will lose the account the next time it asks.

The decision rule: if losing the number would lose the account, rent the number. People err in the same direction, buying a code for cents to register something they will care about in a year. Comparing a code against a line is the wrong comparison; the right one is a line against rebuilding an account you no longer control. A released number re-enters circulation, so the next holder inherits every password reset still pointing at it.

## Is a longer term cheaper?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/is-a-longer-term-cheaper/
Topics: pricing

Substantially. Twelve months carries a 0.68 multiplier against the monthly rate at HushSMS — a 32% cut in the effective monthly price — because a line that does not get reprovisioned every thirty days costs less to run. Three months is 0.88 and six is 0.80, and none of the terms auto-renew.

The discount reflects an actual cost curve rather than a lock-in incentive, which is why it is published as a multiplier instead of a promotion. Each provisioning cycle consumes stock, carries a churn risk and touches a carrier relationship; a line left in place does none of that. There is a second reason to take the longer term that has nothing to do with price. Services that re-verify — WhatsApp, Instagram, anything doing a suspicious-login check — will eventually ask again, and the only thing that makes that a non-event is still holding the number when they do.

## What happens when my term expires?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/what-happens-when-my-term-expires/
Topics: pricing, basics

The line stops working and the number leaves your control. HushSMS terms do not auto-renew, so nothing charges you and nothing continues by accident. Renew before the end date and you keep the same number; let it lapse and it returns to stock, where a standard line may eventually be reissued. Anything verified against that number, WhatsApp and Telegram included, goes with it.

This is the most expensive mistake available in this category, and it is entirely avoidable. Put the end date in a calendar the day you buy, and prefer a twelve-month term for any line an account depends on — the discount is a side benefit, the real point is fewer expiry events to forget. Where a service allows a second recovery factor that is not the number, set it, because it converts a lapsed line from a lockout into an inconvenience. If you are done with an account entirely, letting the number go is fine; just retire the account first rather than leaving live password resets pointing at a number someone else will hold.

## Is buying a no-KYC phone number legal?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/is-this-legal/
Topics: legal, basics

Renting and using a virtual phone number is legal in the great majority of jurisdictions. HushSMS resells numbers leased from licensed carriers, which is ordinary telecoms resale. What you do with a number is governed by the law where you are and by our acceptable use policy, which prohibits fraud, impersonation, harassment and spam. If you live in a country that mandates SIM registration, that obligation is yours to know.

The confusion comes from conflating two different regimes. KYC obligations attach to the issuance of SIM cards and to regulated financial services, not to the resale of numbering capacity, which is why this category exists at all rather than operating in some grey zone people imagine. Wanting a phone number that is not attached to your legal identity is also not evidence of anything: the ordinary customers here are people keeping a personal number off marketplace listings, freelancers separating clients from evenings, and travellers who need a local line without a passport at a shop counter. Where the law does bind is on conduct, and conduct is the part the acceptable use policy covers.

## What will you not sell to?
URL: https://hushsms.com/answers/what-will-you-not-sell-to/
Topics: legal

Fraud, impersonation, harassment, spam, and anything aimed at a specific individual. HushSMS actions valid abuse reports within 24 hours and terminates the line without refund. This is not decoration: a provider that tolerates abuse loses its carrier ranges, and then nobody gets a number.

The incentive here is worth being blunt about, because a moral claim is easy to make and hard to check. Carriers monitor the traffic on ranges they allocate, and a range generating complaints gets withdrawn from the reseller holding it. That takes down every customer on that range, not just the one who caused it. So abuse enforcement is self-interest before it is principle, which is precisely why you can rely on it — it does not depend on anyone's mood. Reports go to abuse@hushsms.com, and the ones that get actioned fastest are the ones that arrive with a number, a timestamp and a message.

## How to get an anonymous phone number (no ID, no SIM) in 2026
URL: https://hushsms.com/guides/how-to-get-anonymous-phone-number/
Published: 2021-04-18 · Updated: 2026-07-22

Answer: To get an anonymous phone number in 2026, buy a no-KYC virtual line from a provider that accepts cryptocurrency, requires no account, and allocates from real carrier ranges. The whole process takes under a minute: pick a country, pay a crypto invoice, and receive SMS in a browser panel. No identity document changes hands at any point.

An anonymous phone number is a working line that is not attached to your legal identity. In 2026 there are exactly four ways to get one, and only two of them survive contact with a modern verification system.

This guide walks all four, in order of how well they actually work, and explains the one technical distinction — carrier range versus VoIP block — that determines whether your number gets accepted or silently rejected.


## The four routes

| Route | ID required | Passes verification | Verdict |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| No-KYC virtual line (crypto) | None | Usually | Best option for most people |
| Prepaid SIM bought with cash | Varies by country | Yes | Works where registration is not mandatory |
| Free online SMS receiver | None | Almost never | Numbers are public and already burnt |
| VoIP app number (Google Voice etc.) | Yes — needs an existing number | Sometimes | Not anonymous; tied to your account |


### Route 1 — a no-KYC virtual line

Ranges allocated by licensed carriers are held by a provider, who rents you individual numbers. Cryptocurrency is the payment method, so no card, bank or billing name is involved. The number behaves like any other line in that country: it receives SMS, takes calls, and appears in the national numbering plan.

This is the only route that combines "no identity" with "actually passes verification", which is why it is the category this site sells into. The important qualifier is which range the number comes from — see below.


### Route 2 — a cash-bought prepaid SIM

Countries without mandatory SIM registration still make this viable. As of 2026 that includes the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Romania, Lithuania and a shrinking handful of others. In most of the EU, and in essentially all of Asia, you now present ID at the counter.

The trade-off is physical: you have to be in the country, carry a second device or swap SIMs, and the number dies if you stop topping it up.


### Route 3 — free public SMS receivers

These sites publish a handful of numbers, with every message shown publicly. The price is zero, for a clear reason: anyone can read your codes, and every major platform blacklisted these ranges years ago.

If a number is listed on a public receive-SMS site, assume it has already been used to register the service you want, which means the service will reject it.


### Route 4 — VoIP app numbers

Google Voice, TextNow and similar. These are not anonymous — obtaining one requires an existing verified phone number and an account tied to your identity. They also sit in blocks that verification filters recognise as VoIP, so acceptance is patchy and getting worse.


## The distinction that decides everything

Submitting a number triggers a lookup against the numbering plan. The service asks one question: is this in a mobile carrier range or a VoIP block? Numbering authorities publish these allocations, and commercial databases resell them enriched.

A number in a mobile range is treated as a person. A number in a VoIP block is treated as disposable. The technology delivering the message is identical; the classification is what differs, and it is the entire game.

"Virtual number" on its own says nothing. From a mobile range, a virtual number passes. From a VoIP block, it fails. Providers who stay silent on which one they sell are usually offering the second.


## Choosing a country

Pick the country the service expects you to be in. A UK number registering a UK-facing service is unremarkable; a Nigerian number doing the same triggers risk scoring on some platforms.

- For global services — United Kingdom, Netherlands, Germany. High trust, cheap, deep stock.
- For US-facing services — a US number. Some platforms restrict features by country.
- On a budget — Romania, Poland, Portugal. Same acceptance, lower wholesale cost.
- Avoid — countries under sanctions programmes, and any range you find advertised as "free SMS".

Full per-country numbering data, including which ranges are mobile, is on the countries page.


## What anonymity does not cover

Being honest about the boundary is the only way this advice is worth anything.

- A no-KYC number does not defeat a bank or a government portal. Regulated institutions require a physical SIM and a government ID, and no number provider changes that.
- It does not anonymise your traffic. If you log in from your home IP with your usual browser fingerprint, the number is the least identifying thing about the session.
- It does not survive you losing it. If a service re-verifies and the line has expired, the account goes with it.


## The short version

1. Buy a no-KYC line from a mobile carrier range, in a country that fits the service.
2. Pay in cryptocurrency so no card or bank ties the purchase to you.
3. Keep the line at least as long as the account it verifies.
4. Do not expect it to work for regulated finance. It will not.


## How to receive SMS without a SIM card
URL: https://hushsms.com/guides/receive-sms-without-sim-card/
Published: 2021-09-02 · Updated: 2026-06-14

Answer: You can receive SMS without a SIM card by renting a virtual number that terminates to a web panel or API instead of a handset. The number is allocated from a real carrier range, so senders and verification systems treat it as an ordinary mobile line, but delivery happens over the internet — no phone, no SIM tray, no roaming.

Receiving SMS without a SIM card is ordinary telecoms, not a workaround. Every business that receives texts at scale — delivery notifications, two-factor systems, support lines — does it exactly this way.


## How it works

Consider what a phone number really is: an entry in a routing table, not a physical object. A SIM card is one possible destination for that entry; a server is another.

1. A carrier allocates a block of numbers from the national numbering plan.
2. The routing entry for your number points at the provider's SMS gateway rather than a mobile switching centre.
3. When someone texts the number, the message traverses the same SS7 or SMPP path as any other SMS.
4. The gateway hands it to your panel and your webhook simultaneously.

From the sender's side nothing is unusual. They dialled a mobile number and it delivered.


## What you need

- A rented number from a carrier range — not a VoIP block, for the reasons in the anonymity guide.
- A browser. That is genuinely all — no app, no device, no SIM.
- Optionally a webhook endpoint if you want messages programmatically.


## The three ways it fails


### The sender blocks virtual ranges

Range databases are used by some services to check the number, and anything not classified as mobile gets refused. Buying from a mobile range in the first place is the fix; a client-side workaround does not exist.


### The message is A2P-filtered

Several countries filter application-to-person traffic differently from person-to-person, and some verification SMS never leaves the sending aggregator. Changing destination country usually resolves it.


### The number was recycled

If a previous holder already registered the service, you will get "this number is already in use". Never-recycled pools exist precisely for this; they cost more because they can only be sold once.


## Sending, not just receiving

Two-way SMS is a separate capability. Many providers sell receive-only lines and do not say so until you try to reply. If outbound matters, confirm it before you pay — on our lines it is included at every term.


## How to receive OTP and verification codes online
URL: https://hushsms.com/guides/receive-otp-online/
Published: 2022-01-25 · Updated: 2026-08-02

Answer: To receive an OTP online, rent a virtual number in a country the service supports, enter it in full international E.164 format, and read the code from your provider panel or webhook. Codes typically land in 12–40 seconds. Choose a mobile-range number: most OTP failures are the service rejecting the range, not the message going missing.

An OTP is a short-lived numeric code sent to prove you control a number. Receiving one online is straightforward; diagnosing why one did not arrive is where people lose an afternoon.


## The procedure

1. Check the service actually accepts your country. Our verification directory lists this per service.
2. Rent a number from a mobile range in that country.
3. Enter it in E.164 — the plus sign, the country code, then the national number with no leading zero.
4. Request the code and watch the panel. Median delivery on our network is 21 seconds.

Keeping the domestic trunk prefix is the most common user error by a wide margin. A French mobile written 06 12 34 56 78 domestically is +33 6 12 34 56 78 internationally; the leading 0 is dropped.


## Why a code does not arrive

| Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
| --- | --- | --- |
| "Invalid number" | Wrong format, or the service rejects the range outright | Re-check E.164; try a different country |
| "Number already in use" | The line was recycled and a previous holder registered | Use a never-recycled pool |
| No error, no code | A2P filtering between the sender and the destination | Change destination country |
| Code arrives late | Aggregator queueing at peak | Request once and wait 2 minutes — repeats reset the timer |

Requesting the code five times in a row is the single most counterproductive response. Most services invalidate the earlier codes and start rate-limiting, so you end up waiting longer than if you had waited.


## Services that will never send you one

Regulated financial institutions — PayPal, Revolut, Wise, retail banks — and government portals check the range against carrier databases and reject virtual allocations at signup. This is not a provider quality problem and no provider can solve it. We list these explicitly on our verification directory rather than take the sale.


## How to buy a phone number with crypto (Monero, Bitcoin, USDT)
URL: https://hushsms.com/guides/buy-phone-number-with-crypto/
Published: 2022-06-11 · Updated: 2026-07-30

Answer: For a crypto purchase, pick a provider that issues a crypto invoice at checkout. You select the asset and send the exact amount to the generated address. After one network confirmation the line provisions: seconds on Solana or Tron, minutes on Bitcoin. Monero is the strongest for privacy since neither amounts nor addresses are public.

The last identifying element of the transaction disappears when you pay in cryptocurrency. A card number acts as an identity document with a spending limit; there is no such link with a crypto payment.


## Which asset to choose

| Asset | Confirm time | Typical fee | What it reveals publicly |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Monero (XMR) | ~2 min | Very low | Nothing — amounts and addresses are hidden |
| Bitcoin (BTC) | 10–30 min | Variable | Amount, addresses, full chain history |
| Bitcoin (Lightning) | Seconds | Negligible | Very little — routed off-chain |
| USDT (TRC-20) | ~1 min | Cents | Amount and addresses; issuer can freeze |
| Litecoin (LTC) | ~2.5 min | Cents | Amount, addresses, chain history |
| Solana (SOL) | Seconds | Fractions of a cent | Amount, addresses, chain history |

Monero is the right choice when privacy is your goal. Every transparent chain leaves a permanent public record that joins your payment address to the merchant address. That record does not name you, but it exists forever and may be correlated later.

If speed and cost are the point, use Litecoin or Tron-USDT. Both confirm quickly for a fee measured in cents.

Stablecoins carry issuer risk that native assets do not: USDT and USDC can be frozen at the contract level. For a $6 phone line that is academic, but it is worth knowing the difference.


## The payment flow

1. Configure the line and press pay. An invoice opens with a fresh address and a fixed amount.
2. Send the exact amount. The invoice holds a fixed exchange rate for its lifetime, so a price move mid-payment does not affect you.
3. Wait for one confirmation. The order page updates itself.
4. The line provisions automatically. No support ticket, no manual review.


## Underpayment, and why it matters

Many wallets deduct the network fee from the amount you typed rather than adding it on top. You intend to send $8.40 and $8.31 arrives. A processor configured strictly rejects that and your money sits in limbo.

Underpaid coverage is a tolerance band — usually a couple of percent — inside which the invoice still settles. Check that any provider you use has it enabled. Ours is set at 2.5%, which absorbs essentially every wallet fee quirk we have seen.


## What the merchant can see

When you pay from a transparent chain, the address you used is visible to us. That is unavoidable, and we delete it once the order settles. With Monero, we only see that the correct amount arrived; nothing else.

What we never see, on any chain: your name, your bank, your card, your address. There is no field for them in our system.


## Are virtual phone numbers traceable?
URL: https://hushsms.com/guides/are-virtual-numbers-traceable/
Published: 2022-11-08 · Updated: 2026-08-05

Answer: Virtual numbers are traceable to the provider holding the range, but not to you, if the provider never collected your identity and you paid in cryptocurrency. Law enforcement can compel the provider to disclose what it holds. What a provider retains matters more than what it promises.

The honest answer has two halves, and providers who give you only the flattering half are not being straight with you.


## What is always traceable

The number itself is public infrastructure. Anyone can look up which carrier holds the range, and from there, which provider leases it. Number portability and emergency routing depend on this visibility.

So: a number always traces back to a provider. That part is not negotiable and any claim otherwise is false.


## What is traceable to you

Only whatever the provider recorded. This is the entire question, and it reduces to four fields:

| Field | Why it exists | What we do |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Identity documents | KYC compliance in regulated telecoms | Never collected — there is no field for it |
| Payment instrument | Card and bank rails require it | Crypto only; no card ever touches the system |
| IP address | Written by default by every web server | Not persisted; access logs are memory-only and rotate hourly |
| Message content | Needed briefly to deliver it | Dropped 24 hours after delivery by default |

A provider that holds all four can identify you completely on request. A provider that holds none cannot, regardless of what it is asked.


## "We do not log" versus "we cannot"

A no-logs policy describes behaviour. An architecture with no identity field describes capability. The second survives ownership changes, court orders, and a bad quarter; the first does not.

> The only customer record we can be compelled to produce is a country, a term, and a payment that arrived. That is not because we are principled on any given Tuesday. It is because we never built anywhere else to put anything.


## What actually deanonymises people

In practice the number is rarely the weak link. The usual failures are mundane:

- Using the anonymous number on an account that already has your real name on it.
- Registering from a home IP with a browser fingerprint used everywhere else.
- Paying with a transparent-chain asset bought from an exchange that holds your ID, with no hops in between.
- Recovery email that points back to a personal address.

A clean number attached to a dirty session is a clean number attached to you. Threat-model the whole thing or none of it.


## Which country should your virtual number be from?
URL: https://hushsms.com/guides/best-country-for-your-number/
Published: 2023-02-14 · Updated: 2026-07-11

Answer: Pick the country the service expects to see. For global platforms, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Germany have the highest acceptance rates and deep stock. For US-only features, use a US number. On a budget, Romania, Poland and Portugal accept identically at a lower price. Avoid countries under sanctions programmes and any range advertised for free SMS.

Three things depend on country choice: whether the service accepts the number, what it costs you, and whether anything about the account looks unusual afterwards.


## Decision table

| If you are… | Pick | Because |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Registering a global app (Telegram, Signal, TikTok) | United Kingdom, Netherlands | Highest acceptance, deep stock, mid price |
| Using US-only features | United States | Some platforms gate features by number country |
| Cost-sensitive, no other constraint | Romania, Poland, Portugal | Tier B pricing, same acceptance |
| Verifying a service that scores country risk | Switzerland, Norway, Singapore | Premium tiers score as low risk |
| Registering a local marketplace | The marketplace's country | Foreign numbers get extra scrutiny |
| Building something that spans regions | Match the region per line | One line per market beats one line everywhere |


## The quiet overperformers

- Romania — tier B pricing with acceptance indistinguishable from Germany. The best value in the catalogue.
- Netherlands — small country, disproportionately trusted, rarely rate-limited.
- Portugal — cheapest western-European mobile ranges we hold.
- Estonia — unusual enough to avoid bulk-registration heuristics, EU enough to be trusted.


## What not to optimise for

Avoid picking a country because it is exotic. Risk engines flag improbable combinations; an account created from a European IP on a Kenyan number deserves flagging. Boring and consistent beats clever.

Do not chase the absolute cheapest line for an account you care about. The price difference between tier B and tier S over a year is a few dollars; a locked account costs considerably more.


## Long-term private numbers vs temporary burner numbers
URL: https://hushsms.com/guides/long-term-vs-temporary-numbers/
Published: 2023-07-19 · Updated: 2026-05-28

Answer: Use a temporary number when you need one code and will never hear from the service again. Use a long-term rented line whenever the service can re-verify, send password resets, or lock you out — which includes WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, Apple and most financial platforms. The deciding question is not cost, it is whether losing the number would lose the account.

People overwhelmingly buy the wrong one, and it is always the same direction: a one-shot code for an account they will still want in a year.


## The rule

> If losing the number would lose the account, rent the number. Otherwise, buy the code.

That is the whole decision. Everything below is just applying it.


## When a one-shot code is right

- A marketplace signup you will use once.
- A newsletter or download gate demanding a number for no reason.
- A trial account you intend to abandon.
- Anything where password reset runs through email, not SMS.

A single code costs cents. The number is released the moment it lands.


## When you need the line

- WhatsApp — re-verifies periodically. Lose the line, lose the account.
- Telegram — recoverable only if you set a 2FA password first.
- Signal — set the registration lock, or the next holder of the number can claim it.
- Instagram, Facebook, X — re-check numbers on suspicious logins.
- Apple ID — ties the number to device trust.
- Anything you would be upset to lose.


## The cost comparison people get wrong

A yearly line costs a few dollars a month; a one-shot code costs cents. The arithmetic tempts, but it is a trap: the code buys a number gone in minutes, possibly resold.

Compare against the right baseline: not "code versus line", but "line versus rebuilding an account you no longer control".


## How to keep your real phone number private
URL: https://hushsms.com/guides/keep-your-phone-number-private/
Published: 2024-01-30 · Updated: 2026-06-02

Answer: Keep your real number for people who know you, and use a separate rented line for every system that demands a number to function. Your personal number is the primary key that data brokers use to join records across breaches; giving it to a marketplace or a loyalty scheme is what makes that join possible.

A phone number leak hurts more than an email leak, structurally: you can create unlimited email addresses, but you have one number that follows you for a decade.


## Why the number is the primary key

Data brokers assemble profiles by joining leaked datasets. Joining on name is unreliable, on email is partial — people use several. Joining on phone number is close to perfect, because almost everyone has exactly one and it rarely changes.

Hand your number to a retailer, a delivery app, or a loyalty scheme, and you add another joinable row when that company gets breached. When, not if.


## A separation strategy

| Tier | Number | Who gets it |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Personal | Your real SIM | Family, friends, doctor, employer |
| Commercial | One rented line, kept long-term | Marketplaces, deliveries, loyalty schemes, recruiters |
| Disposable | One-shot codes | Anything demanding a number to let you through a form |

The commercial tier does the heavy lifting. Spam lands there, breaches list it, and when it becomes unusable you rotate it without breaking anything that matters.


## Practical steps

1. Rent one long-term line and set it as the contact number on every commercial account you already have.
2. Forward it to your real number so you do not miss delivery calls.
3. Use one-shot codes for anything you will not hear from again.
4. Never use the commercial line for account recovery on something that matters.
5. Rotate the commercial line when spam volume gets annoying — twice per term is free on our lines.

Doing this retroactively is worth it even though your number is already out there. Breach data ages; a number that stops appearing in new datasets stops accumulating new joins.

# USE CASES (8)

URL: https://hushsms.com/use-cases/

Every one of these is ordinary and lawful. That is not a disclaimer, it is the actual customer base.

## Keeping your number out of every signup form
URL: https://hushsms.com/use-cases/signup-spam/
Who: Anyone who has ever bought something online
Problem: Retailers, delivery apps, loyalty schemes and marketplaces all demand a phone number to function, then leak it in the breach they have three years later. Your number becomes the join key that links every one of those records to you.
Solution: Keep one long-term line and use it as the contact on every commercial account. That line absorbs the spam, takes the breach hits instead of your real number, and when it becomes unusable you rotate it. Nothing important breaks because the second line only does commercial duty.
Recommended: 12 months in United Kingdom, Germany, Netherlands

## Selling on marketplaces without publishing your number
URL: https://hushsms.com/use-cases/selling-online/
Who: People listing on Vinted, eBay, Facebook Marketplace, Leboncoin
Problem: A listing with a phone number attached is a permanent, searchable link between an item, a location and a person. Buyers keep the number. So does everyone else who saw the listing.
Solution: A local line in the marketplace's country, forwarded to your real phone so you never miss a buyer. Retire it when you are done selling.
Recommended: 3 months in France, Germany, Poland, Spain

## A local number where you are travelling
URL: https://hushsms.com/use-cases/travel/
Who: Long-stay travellers, digital nomads, seasonal workers
Problem: Local services increasingly reject foreign numbers — bank OTPs, delivery apps, ride-hailing, restaurant bookings. Buying a local SIM means showing ID at the counter in most countries now.
Solution: Land with a local number already live in the destination country. No SIM tray, no registration, no queue at a kiosk. Cancel the line when you leave.
Recommended: 3 months in Portugal, Thailand, Mexico, Japan

## Separating a side business from your personal life
URL: https://hushsms.com/use-cases/business-separation/
Who: Freelancers, consultants, small operators
Problem: Handing clients your personal mobile means they have it forever, including at 11pm on a Sunday and long after the engagement ends.
Solution: Get a business line with scheduled on/off hours and forwarding. Clients reach a professional local number during work hours; your evenings stay yours.
Recommended: 12 months in United Kingdom, United States, Germany

## Dating without handing over your primary number
URL: https://hushsms.com/use-cases/dating-safety/
Who: Anyone using a dating app
Problem: A name, social profiles and often an address are all reachable from a phone number. The point of no return comes when the conversation moves off the app.
Solution: A separate line used for early conversations. If it goes well, share your real number. If it does not, rotate the line and the connection is gone.
Recommended: 3 months in United Kingdom, United States, France

## Source contact for journalists and researchers
URL: https://hushsms.com/use-cases/journalism/
Who: Reporters, NGO staff, academic researchers
Problem: A contact number that resolves to your identity puts sources at risk, not just you. In some contexts the existence of the contact is itself the sensitive fact.
Solution: A dedicated line in a jurisdiction that suits the work, retired at the end of the project. Message retention is 24 hours by default, so there is no archive to seize.
Recommended: 6 months in Switzerland, Iceland, Norway

## A recovery number that is not your main one
URL: https://hushsms.com/use-cases/account-recovery/
Who: Anyone with accounts worth protecting
Problem: Using your primary number for account recovery makes SIM-swap attacks catastrophic: one social-engineering call to a carrier support desk and every account falls at once.
Solution: No carrier support desk exists to socially engineer on a dedicated recovery line. There is no account to compromise, and no link to your public identity.
Recommended: 12 months in Switzerland, United Kingdom, Estonia

## Testing SMS flows across countries
URL: https://hushsms.com/use-cases/developer-testing/
Who: Developers building signup and OTP flows
Problem: You cannot test international SMS delivery without international numbers, and buying SIMs in nine countries is not a realistic engineering budget line.
Solution: For every market you ship to, cheap lines come with webhooks running inbound messages into your test harness. Every term includes the REST API.
Recommended: 3 months in Brazil, India, Indonesia, Nigeria

# LEGAL


## Terms of service
URL: https://hushsms.com/legal/terms/
Summary: You rent a phone line for a fixed term. We provide it as described, you use it lawfully, and either of us can walk away at the end of the term with nothing owed.

These terms govern your use of HushSMS, operated by HushSMS Communications OÜ (“we”, “us”). By paying an invoice you accept them.


## 1. What we provide

We lease you the exclusive use of a telephone number for a fixed term, together with delivery of inbound SMS and voice to a web panel and, optionally, to a webhook endpoint you control. The number remains allocated to us or to our upstream carrier throughout; you hold a right of use, not title.


## 2. No account, no identity

We do not require and will not accept identity documents. An email address, if you provide one, is used solely to deliver your panel link and is deleted with the order. You are responsible for keeping your access token; we cannot recover it, because we do not store a recoverable copy.


## 3. Your obligations

You must use the line lawfully and in accordance with our acceptable use policy. You must not resell access, use the line to send unsolicited bulk messages, impersonate any person or organisation, or use it in furtherance of fraud. Breach of the acceptable use policy terminates the term immediately and without refund.


## 4. What we do not promise

We do not warrant that any particular third-party service will accept the number. Acceptance is determined by that third party against criteria it does not publish and changes without notice. Where we publish a compatibility rating we do so in good faith on measured data, and where we mark a service unsupported we will not sell you a line for it. Neither statement is a guarantee.

We do not provide emergency calling. Do not rely on a line from us to reach emergency services.


## 5. Availability

We target the availability published on our status page and we publish incidents whether or not they reflect well on us. We do not offer a contractual SLA at these prices; what we offer instead is a refund when the service does not do what you bought it for.


## 6. Term and termination

Terms do not auto-renew. At the end of a term the line stops unless you have renewed it. We may terminate immediately for breach of the acceptable use policy, on a lawful order, or if our upstream carrier withdraws a range — in the last case we will offer a replacement line or a pro-rata refund.


## 7. Liability

Our aggregate liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for the affected line. We are not liable for consequential loss, including loss of access to any third-party account. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.


## 8. Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of Estonia. Nothing in them removes any statutory consumer right you have where you live.


## 9. Changes

We may amend these terms for future orders. The version in force for your order is the version published when you paid, and we keep prior versions available on request.


## 10. Contact

## Privacy policy
URL: https://hushsms.com/legal/privacy/
Summary: We hold a country, a term, a payment confirmation, and message bodies for 24 hours. We do not hold your identity, because there is nowhere in the system to put it.

This policy describes every category of data we process. It is short because the list is short, and the list is short by design rather than by policy.


## What we collect

| Data | Do we hold it? | Retention | Why |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Name, address, ID document | No | — | There is no field for it in the system |
| Payment card or bank details | No | — | We accept cryptocurrency only |
| Email address | Only if you provide one | Deleted with the order | To send your panel link |
| Country, line type, term | Yes | Life of the order | To provision and bill the line |
| Payment confirmation | Yes | 7 years | Accounting obligation in our jurisdiction |
| Inbound message bodies | Yes | 24 hours by default | To deliver them to you |
| Call metadata (time, duration) | Yes | 30 days | Carrier reconciliation and fraud control |
| IP addresses | In memory only | Rotated hourly, never written to disk | Rate limiting |


## What we do not do

- No analytics. There is no third-party script on this site, no tag manager and no CDN beacon.
- No advertising or marketing profiles. We do not have a mailing list.
- No sale or sharing of any data with anyone, for any price.
- No cookies except a single functional preference cookie if you change language.


## Lawful requests

We comply with valid legal process issued in our jurisdiction. What we can produce is a country, a term, a payment confirmation and any message body less than 24 hours old. We cannot produce identity records because none exist. We will notify the affected customer where the law permits us to do so.


## Your rights

If you are in the EU, UK or another jurisdiction with equivalent rights, you may request access to, correction of, or erasure of your data. In practice the answer to an access request is a country, a term and a payment. Write to support@hushsms.com; we respond within 30 days.


## Processors

We use a cryptocurrency payment processor to generate and settle invoices, and upstream carriers to terminate SMS and voice. Neither receives identity data from us because we have none to send. Carriers necessarily see message metadata as part of delivering it — that is how telephony works, and no provider can change it.


## Changes

Material changes are published here and noted in the changelog. We do not silently expand what we collect.


## Refund policy
URL: https://hushsms.com/legal/refund/
Summary: If the line does not do what you bought it for, tell us within 24 hours and you get your money back. No form, no argument, no restocking fee.

Refunds cost us less than disputes do, so this policy is written to be easy to use rather than easy to hide behind.


## When you get a full refund

- The line never provisioned, or provisioned as a number that does not work.
- The line failed to receive a verification code from a service we list as supported, and you tell us within 24 hours of activation.
- We sold you a line for a service we should have flagged as unsupported.
- An incident on our side prevented the line working for a material part of the term.


## When you get a pro-rata refund

- An upstream carrier withdraws a range mid-term and we cannot supply an equivalent replacement.
- You cancel a term of six months or longer within the first 14 days, having used the line normally.


## When you do not get a refund

- The service you bought for is listed as unsupported on our verification directory. That list exists so this does not happen.
- You used the line in breach of the acceptable use policy.
- You asked more than 24 hours after activation for a verification failure. Delivery problems are visible immediately; a week later we cannot distinguish them from a change of mind.
- A third party banned your account for reasons unrelated to the line working.


## How refunds are paid

To the asset and address you paid from, at the exchange rate of the original invoice. We carry the exchange-rate risk between payment and refund; you receive the value you paid, not the value the asset happens to have on the day.

Mail support@hushsms.com with your order reference. Median resolution is under 4 hours.


## Statutory rights

If you are a consumer in the EU or UK you may have a statutory right of withdrawal that is broader than this policy. Nothing here reduces it. Note that where you ask us to provision immediately, that right may be limited once the service has been fully performed.


## Acceptable use policy
URL: https://hushsms.com/legal/aup/
Summary: No fraud, no impersonation, no harassment, no spam, nothing targeting an individual. Valid reports are actioned within 24 hours and the line is terminated without refund.

This policy is short and it is enforced. A provider that tolerates abuse loses its carrier ranges, and then nobody gets a number — including the overwhelming majority of customers who are doing something entirely ordinary.


## Prohibited outright

- Fraud. Using a line in furtherance of any scheme to obtain money, goods, credentials or access by deception.
- Impersonation. Presenting as another real person, business or public body.
- Harassment and stalking. Any contact directed at a specific individual who has not consented to it, including through third parties.
- Unsolicited bulk messaging. Marketing, phishing or any high-volume outbound campaign.
- Child sexual abuse material, terrorism, or trafficking of any kind. Reported to authorities, not merely terminated.
- Circumventing a ban imposed on you by a platform for the conduct above.
- Reselling access to the line to third parties.


## Explicitly permitted

Because the boundary matters in both directions:

- Keeping your personal number off commercial signup forms.
- Registering accounts under a pseudonym where the platform permits pseudonyms.
- Receiving verification codes for accounts that are yours.
- Separating business, dating, marketplace or travel contact from your personal life.
- Journalism, research and source protection.
- Testing SMS and voice flows you are building.


## Reporting abuse

Mail abuse@hushsms.com with the number, the approximate time, and what happened. We investigate every report and action valid ones within 24 hours. You do not need to be a customer, and you do not need to be a lawyer.


## What action means

Termination of the line without refund, permanent refusal of future orders where we can identify the buyer by payment address, and referral to law enforcement where the conduct warrants it. We do not warn first for anything in the prohibited list.


## Our limits

We cannot read message content to police it — retention is 24 hours and we do not scan it. Enforcement is therefore report-driven. That is a real constraint of building a system with nothing in it, and we would rather state it than pretend to a capability we do not have.

# SOURCES AND PROVENANCE

Every numbering fact in this file — dial code, national significant digit count, trunk prefix, mobile range, E.164 example — is transcribed from the standards documents below. None of it is copied from another provider and none of it is generated.

Compatibility ratings, delivery times and success rates are our own measurement over a rolling 90 days across live stock, not vendor claims and not estimates. Prices are computed from the published formula in the PRICING section rather than quoted, so they cannot drift from checkout.
