A real phone number
for Telegram.
Get a real mobile number for Telegram in any of 181 countries. Receive the Telegram verification code by SMS or call, use the number for a Telegram account separate from your personal SIM, channels and groups for a business, or a local number for regional communities, and keep it for as long as you want.
Every number includes unlimited incoming SMS, 500 outgoing SMS and 1,000 outgoing minutes a month, and unlimited incoming calls — from $1.80 a month on the yearly plan, with a 7-day replacement guarantee — if the number doesn't work with WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram or Google, we replace it free or refund 100%; plus a no-questions-asked refund if you haven't used it for any call or SMS.
How Telegram verification works
Telegram sends a login code by SMS (or to an existing Telegram session). New accounts receive the code by SMS to your number.
Because SMSCreation numbers are real mobile numbers, Telegram treats them like any other phone: the code is delivered to your number and shows up in your dashboard inbox straight away.
Why it works with WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram & Google
Apps check more than the digits: they look up the line type, the country format and whether the number can actually receive their code. Every SMSCreation number is a real mobile number in its country's official format — not a VoIP line — so it passes those checks the same way a SIM in your pocket does.
And we stand behind it with a 7-day replacement guarantee: if your number doesn't work with WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram, Google or any app you need, we replace it free with a new number in the same country — or refund 100% if you prefer.
- Non-VoIP, real mobile line type — line-type checks see an ordinary SIM number, not a VoIP line
- Official country format with the right country code, prefix and digit count
- Unlimited incoming SMS and calls — codes arrive by text or through the “call me” option
- Private to you — never listed on public SMS sites, so it isn't flagged or rate-limited
- Yours for as long as you want — re-verification and account recovery keep working
Telegram verification details
Telegram signs you in with a login code. On a brand-new account the code comes by SMS to the number you enter, in international format: plus sign, country code, then the number. If you're already signed in to Telegram on another device, the code may go to that session instead. It appears in a chat from the verified "Telegram" profile with a blue check. Telegram only dictates login codes in a phone call for accounts that have two-step verification turned on. Telegram accounts can only be linked to mobile numbers, not landlines.
Telegram's FAQ puts it bluntly: the phone number is the only way it identifies a user, so "whoever has the number, has the account". That's the main reason to keep your SMSCreation number renewed after you sign up. Telegram also warns that codes sent through the app are not a replacement for an up-to-date phone number you control. If you stop using Telegram, your account is deleted after 18 months offline by default, and you can change that period in Settings.

Common Telegram problems and fixes
- No SMS code: check first whether Telegram sent the code to the "Telegram" chat on a device you're already logged in on. Then confirm the number is in international format. Our guide "Telegram code not received" covers the rest.
- No "call me" option: Telegram only reads login codes aloud in a call for accounts with two-step verification. A new account has to receive the code by SMS, which lands in your SMSCreation inbox.
- You're moving to a new number: go to Settings, tap your phone number, then Change Number. Your contacts, messages and media stay. If a Telegram account already exists on the new number, you have to delete it first.
- You lost the phone you were signed in on: from another device, turn on Two-Step Verification and end the old session under Settings > Devices (or Privacy & Security > Active Sessions). Because the SMSCreation number lives in your web dashboard, you can still receive login codes without the lost phone.
- Your account shows as frozen: Telegram restricts accounts after reports from other users. You can still read chats but can't send messages. You can appeal from inside Telegram.

Questions
Does an SMSCreation number work with Telegram?
Yes. Our numbers are real mobile numbers, so Telegram can send its verification code to them by SMS — and by call where Telegram offers it, since incoming calls are unlimited.
Which country should I choose for Telegram?
Any country works. Pick the country where you want your contacts to see a local number, or where the service you're joining expects one.
Will the number work with WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram and Google?
Yes — guaranteed. It's a real mobile number with unlimited incoming SMS and calls, so verification codes arrive by SMS or voice call. If it doesn't work with WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram, Google or any app you need, we replace it free within 7 days — or refund 100%.
Can I keep using the same number for Telegram?
Yes. The number is yours for as long as you keep it renewed, so you can receive codes again for new devices or account recovery.
What if I don't need the number after all?
You're covered by our 7-day replacement guarantee — if the number doesn't work with WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram or Google, we replace it free or refund 100%; plus a no-questions-asked refund if you haven't used it for any call or SMS — request a refund within 7 days of activation.
How much does it cost?
From $1.80 a month on the yearly plan (billed yearly at $21.60/year). Every plan includes unlimited incoming SMS and calls, 500 outgoing SMS and 1,000 minutes.
Can I have two Telegram accounts?
Yes. Telegram treats each phone number as a separate account, and one Telegram installation can be logged in to several accounts at once. A second number from SMSCreation gives you a separate Telegram identity, for example for work or a channel, alongside your personal one.
What happens if I stop renewing the number?
Telegram says whoever controls the number controls the account, so a lapsed number is a real risk. Turn on two-step verification with a recovery email and keep the number renewed. With two-step verification on, the SMS code alone isn't enough to log in.
