## What is SMS activate?

Get a virtual phone number to receive SMS online without giving your personal number to every app or website. Use a virtual SIM for one-time SMS verification or rent a number for up to 7 days when you need to receive more messages from the same service.

Whether you are signing up for an app or confirming an account, choose a temporary phone number for your selected service and receive verification codes directly in the app. No additional physical SIM card is needed.

One-time SMS and number rental

Choose one-time SMS reception when you need a verification code for a supported app or website. If you need access to the number over several days, select a rental for up to 7 days. During the rental, you can receive additional SMS messages from the service you selected. Rental extensions are available when you need more time.

Virtual numbers for different countries

Explore phone numbers from countries such as the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, India and Turkey. Available countries and virtual numbers vary by service, so you can choose from the options shown in the app.

Receive SMS verification codes for supported services, including WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, Facebook and Google. Select the platform you need before getting a number. Each number is intended for incoming SMS from that selected service.

How to receive SMS online

1. Choose the app or online service you want to use.
2. Select a country and a one-time or rental option.
3. Get your virtual number and copy it into the selected service.
4. Request a verification code and view the incoming SMS in the app.

An online SMS receiver for everyday sign-ups

Keep your personal phone number for your own contacts and use a temporary number for supported online registrations. A virtual SIM gives you access to incoming SMS and verification codes through the app, with no extra SIM card to insert or switch.

From a one-time code to a rental lasting several days, choose the option that fits your needs. Get a virtual number, receive SMS online and manage messages for your selected service in one place.
