Before you buy a China number

Typing the number into the app
When the app you are signing up to asks for your phone number, pick China (+86) as the country, then type the rest of the number we give you: the 11 digits after +86.
Where you connect from
Many apps will not send a code when your connection looks like it comes from another country. If yours does not arrive, connect through a China VPN server and ask for the code again.
If the country does not matter
Telegram is $1.44 on a Mongolia number instead of $2.46 here.

China number FAQ

How do I get a China phone number for SMS verification?

Create a GhostSMS account, choose China (+86) from the country list, and select the service you want to verify. Your number is issued instantly and incoming SMS appear in your dashboard in real time.

Are these real China numbers or VoIP numbers?

Real mobile numbers on physical SIM cards — not VoIP. Apps like WhatsApp and Telegram routinely reject VoIP numbers; SIM-backed China numbers pass verification the same way a number in a local phone would.

How much does a temporary China number cost?

One-time China numbers start at $0.23 per verification.

What format do China numbers use?

China numbers use the country code +86 and follow the format +86 XXX XXXX XXXX. Services recognize them as regular China mobile numbers.

What happens if I don't receive an SMS on my China number?

If no code arrives on a one-time number before it expires (about 20 minutes), its cost goes back to your balance automatically. No support ticket needed.
