Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to what people ask us most.

Last updated 18 October 2026

What is a virtual number?

A real phone number in another country that receives SMS online. You use it to verify apps like WhatsApp, Telegram and TikTok without buying a SIM card.

How fast does the code arrive?

Often within seconds, sometimes a few minutes. It appears on your screen automatically. You do not need to refresh.

What if no code comes?

Take a free replacement number, up to two per order. If the timer runs out without a code, you are refunded to your wallet automatically.

Do I need a VPN?

For most apps, yes. Set it to the same country as the number before you request the code.

Can I pay in naira?

Yes. Pay by card or bank transfer through Paystack, or top up your Plugg wallet and buy in one tap.

Which operator should I pick?

The one marked Recommended. It has the best mix of delivery rate and price. A cheaper operator with a low rate often means paying twice.

Can I use the number again later?

Verification numbers are for one code. If you need to verify again later, rent a number instead.

Is the scam checker free?

Yes, always. Search any number to see reports from other users before you send money.

Can I buy from Telegram?

Yes. Our Telegram bot has the same numbers, the same wallet and delivers codes straight into your chat.
