From $0.25 per code on Hong Kong numbers at the last update
Before you buy a Hong Kong number
- Typing the number into the app
- When the app you are signing up to asks for your phone number, pick Hong Kong (+852) as the country, then type the rest of the number we give you: the 8 digits after +852.
- 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 Hong Kong VPN server and ask for the code again.
- Where codes arrive reliably
- Delivery is rated high here, at a lower price than in most countries, for eBay ($0.53).
- Where codes often fail
- Delivery is rated limited here, under 60% of codes arriving, for Baidu and Facebook. Macao is rated high for both, Baidu ($0.26) and Facebook ($1.37).
- If the country does not matter
- WhatsApp is $1.37 on a Mongolia number instead of $2.89 here.

Hong Kong number FAQ
How do I get a Hong Kong phone number for SMS verification?
Create a GhostSMS account, choose Hong Kong (+852) 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 Hong Kong numbers or VoIP numbers?
Real mobile numbers on physical SIM cards — not VoIP. Apps like WhatsApp and Telegram routinely reject VoIP numbers; SIM-backed Hong Kong numbers pass verification the same way a number in a local phone would.
How much does a temporary Hong Kong number cost?
One-time Hong Kong numbers start at $0.21 per verification. Long-term Hong Kong rentals are available too: the price depends on the period you choose, is shown before you buy, and a rental can be extended at any time.
What format do Hong Kong numbers use?
Hong Kong numbers use the country code +852 and follow the format +852 XXXX XXXX. Services recognize them as regular Hong Kong mobile numbers.
What happens if I don't receive an SMS on my Hong Kong number?
If no code arrives on a one-time number before it expires (about 20 minutes), its cost goes back to your balance automatically. A rental can be cancelled for a full refund within its first 20 minutes. No support ticket needed.
