Before you buy a United States number

Typing the number into the app
When the app you are signing up to asks for your phone number, pick United States (+1) as the country, then type the rest of the number we give you: the 10 digits after +1.
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 United States VPN server and ask for the code again.
Where codes arrive reliably
Delivery is rated high here for Deliveroo ($0.74), Shopee ($1.25) and Discord ($1.04).
Where codes often fail
Delivery is rated limited here, under 60% of codes arriving, for Airbnb and Badoo. Mexico is rated high for Airbnb ($1.00).
If the country does not matter
WhatsApp is $2.56 on a Mexico number instead of $5.09 here; Telegram is $0.50 on a Nicaragua number instead of $4.10 here.

United States number FAQ

How do I get a United States phone number for SMS verification?

Create a GhostSMS account, choose United States (+1) 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 United States numbers or VoIP numbers?

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

How much does a temporary United States number cost?

One-time United States numbers start at $0.21 per verification. Long-term United States 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 United States numbers use?

United States numbers use the country code +1 and follow the format +1 (XXX) XXX-XXXX. Services recognize them as regular United States mobile numbers.

What happens if I don't receive an SMS on my United States 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.
