If it disappears, so do your messages foreverCopy the number at the top of this page. Click the “Copy” button next to your USA temporary number. This number is now yours to use for receiving SMS messages online. It's active and publicly accessible.
Paste it into the app or website you're using. When signing up for a service that requires phone verification, paste the USA number (for example: +16017419823) into the phone field. Whether it's for a social media account, email registration, or login confirmation, your USA temporary number will work just like a regular one.
Send the verification code request. After you've entered the number, go ahead and start the verification process. The platform will send an SMS to this phone number.
Wait for the SMS message to appear. Any incoming message to this number will be displayed directly on this page. Messages usually appear within 10 to 30 seconds after the code is sent. If it doesn't show up, a quick page refresh might help.
Copy and use it for verification. Once your SMS is visible, find the verification or OTP code in the message and copy it. Then return to the platform to complete your sign up.
Still waiting for your SMS? If your code is not delivered yet, the USA number might have been used too recently, or the sender doesn’t support shared USA virtual numbers. In that case, refresh the page, select a different number (new ones work best), or consider using one of our private virtual phone number options made for the exact platform you need.
