What people use these numbers for
Most people grab a temp SMS number here to finish a sign-up, claim a forum account, or get a free verification code without handing over their real one. Developers use them too: if you build anything that sends SMS, these give you a live inbox to test against instead of burning your own phone.
They work for most sites that send a code by SMS. Some services keep a list of numbers like these and turn them away, which is why the list here changes over time.
These numbers are public. Plan around it.
Every number on this page is shared. Anyone who knows it can open this page and read the same messages you do. That is fine for a one-time code you will never need again. It is a bad idea for anything tied to your identity, your money, or an account you would be upset to lose.
If you need a number nobody else can see, rent a dedicated virtual number instead. It stays yours as long as your balance covers the renewal, and the messages land in your account only.

Frequently Asked Questions
For a country that isn't listed here, or a larger volume of numbers for receiving SMS, contact us.
How often are new numbers added?
New numbers go up whenever we add them, and old ones drop off the list once they stop working. There is no fixed schedule, so the set you see today will not be the same in a month.
What Is a Temporary Phone Number?
A temporary phone number is a disposable number you use instead of your own. Every temp number on this page is free and public, so pick one from the list, use it to get a free verification code, then refresh the page to read the message. Nothing to install and no account to create.
How does the service work?
Pick a number from the list, then copy it with the Copy button or by hand. Use it wherever a phone number is requested. Once the message is sent, refresh the page to read it. If nothing shows up right away, refresh again or try a different number.
