What Am I Able To Use A Free Phone Number For?
If you are on this website and reading this, then it’s probably because you are already aware of the fact that you are in need of a free phone number to use online for some form of SMS. Most of the time, this is because you need to receive verification for a specific service, or maybe you need to receive a one-time password (OTP). Let’s focus on the former for now. Verification is required on most apps and online services at time of registration. This means a code being sent to your phone via SMS, which you will then need to input onto the page you’re trying to sign up on. Many people prefer not to do this with their own personal number in order to maintain their online privacy and security.
Free Phone Numbers For Verification
As mentioned above, SMS verification is required when you sign up to most new services via apps and online. You will need to be sent a code which will then need to be inputted in order to use their services. The below is a list of examples of services that require SMS verification:
- Social Media such as Twitter, Pinterest, Snapchat, Facebook or Instagram
- Chat services such as WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram or Messenger
- Career sites like LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Monster or Angelist.
- Dating apps like Tinder, Bumble.
- Selling platforms like Ebay, Facebook Marketplace
There are many others too, the above just gives you an idea.

The process is entirely the same for whatever reason you’re needing to receive SMS online- for verification, a one-time password, or for any other personal or professional reason.
Do I Have To Register To Use A Free Phone Number?

Entirely free, no input of personal information, quick and easy! After all, people look to use AnonymSMS for free phone numbers for SMSs, so there would be little point asking people to put their personal details in, as this anonymity is the reason people use this service in the first place.
Are Free Phone Numbers Added Onto The Site Often?
Not only is AnonymSMS totally free and with no need to register, new numbers are also added on an almost daily basis. This is to ensure that people have plenty of choice when it comes to free phone numbers to use and stops numbers becoming overused. The process is as follows:
- A new number is added onto the site
- People are able to use it straight away for free SMSs
- As soon as a number looks as if it’s starting to become overused – usually because people have used it for lots of different services – it will be made inactive.
- At this stage, the process starts again, with new numbers added. This means you’ll be likely to find a new number to use each time you use AnonymSMS.
Reasons For Using Free Phone Numbers For SMS
Primarily, people tend to use free phone numbers for SMS for an element of anonymity. People are becoming more reluctant to hand out their personal numbers, because we can never be sure what will be done with them or whether or not they will be kept private. There are further advantages of using free phone numbers for SMS, which include:
- Privacy and security: Oftentimes when you enter your number into something online, it will be used to ‘keep you informed’ about things such as the latest products or sales. Most of the time, these types of calls and messages are unwanted.
- Selling on personal details: In some cases, your number will even be sold to third party companies, who will most probably call and message you frequently. This is frustrating and a real breach of privacy.
- Linking your digital footprint: Your phone number is the main thing that links all of your digital accounts, meaning you leave a digital footprint on everything you do – unless you use a free phone number online.
- Clogs up your phone: A large number of SMSs can take up your phone memory and make things slow. Using AnonymSMS means that not only do you ensure your privacy and security, it also means that you don’t have to go through the rather laborious process of having to delete unwanted SMSs, or block the numbers.
