The whole path, start to finish. None of it takes long — the slowest part is usually waiting for the verification email.

  1. Create an account and verify your email.
  2. Add funds to your account — the minimum top-up is $10.
  3. Browse available numbers by country.
  4. Choose a one-time number or a rental.
  5. Complete checkout and receive your number.
  6. Watch incoming messages arrive on the number, in real time.

If a code does not arrive, nothing is lost — see My code has not arrived for what to do next.
