A real Nigeria mobile number that works everywhere

Your number is a genuine Nigeria mobile number in the standard +234 format — the same kind of number a local network issues to a phone. Use it with WhatsApp, Instagram, Google and Telegram, social and email accounts, marketplaces and any website that sends a verification text or call.

Messages arrive in your SMSCreation inbox the moment they're sent; calls ring through to your dashboard.

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

Nigeria number format

Nigeria uses the country code +234. Mobile numbers have 10 digits after the country code and are written locally like 0802 123 4567.

On SMSCreation you choose from 31 Nigeria numbers shown in their real format, for example +234 XX1 695 01XX. The first two and last two digits appear as XX and are assigned when your order is approved and the number is activated — so the number you receive has never been listed to anyone else.

How to call and text a Nigeria number

Anyone can reach your Nigeria number from anywhere. Here's how, using +234 XX1 695 01XX as the example:

Nigeria runs on UTC+1, so you'll know when calls and messages are likely to come in.

• From any mobile phone: dial +234 XX1 695 01XX — the + works on every network.
• From the United States or Canada: dial 011 234 XX1 695 01XX.
• From the UK, India, the EU and most other countries: dial 00 234 XX1 695 01XX.
• From inside Nigeria: dial 0XX1 695 01XX.

Who uses a Nigeria number

• Diaspora families and businesses keep a number in the country so relatives, customers and partners can call and message easily.
• NGOs, researchers and remote teams use a local number to stay reachable in the field.
• Nigerian people living abroad who want to keep a Nigeria number for family, bank verification codes and local services.
• Travellers heading to Abuja who want a local number before they land — for bookings, rides and messaging.
• Online shops and agencies with Nigerian customers who expect a local +234 number to call or message.
• People who want a separate Nigeria number for online accounts so their personal number stays private.

How to get a Nigeria number

1. 01Open the Nigeria list and pick a number — every one is a real +234 mobile number.
2. 02Choose your plan — the yearly plan is just $1.80 a month.
3. 03Pay in crypto — USDT or USDC on Tron, Polygon, BNB Chain, Base or Solana — or from your wallet balance. No card, no NGN conversion.
4. 04Once activated, your Nigeria number shows up in your dashboard — start receiving codes and calls straight away.

Crypto only, 100% private — even in Nigeria

You don't need a Nigeria ID, a Nigeria address or a Nigeria bank card. SMSCreation is crypto-only and asks for nothing but an email, so your Nigeria number isn't tied to your identity or your bank.

• No KYC — no ID, passport, selfie or proof of address, ever
• No real name required — sign up with an email and a password
• No card, no bank account — crypto only, so no payment details are linked to you
• No phone number needed to sign up
• 9 payment networks across Tron, Polygon, BNB Chain, Base and Solana
• No chargebacks, no card fees, no currency conversion

Using a Nigerian number: local notes

Nigerian fintech and banking apps, marketplaces, delivery and ride apps, and betting and ticketing platforms verify almost everything by SMS, and WhatsApp is the default for business. For people in the diaspora, a Nigerian number lets relatives, customers and partners reach you on a local line.

Nigerian mobiles are eleven digits at home, starting with 070, 080, 081, 090 or 091, for example 0802 123 4567. Internationally the 0 goes: +234 802 123 4567, ten digits after the country code. Prefixes such as 0803 or 0906 were originally tied to specific networks, but mobile number portability has been available since 2013, so the prefix no longer proves the network. Local SIMs must be linked to a National Identification Number (NIN) under NCC policy.

Many Nigerian banking functions run over USSD codes such as *XXX#, which work only from a SIM in a handset. A number in a web dashboard handles SMS and calls, not USSD sessions. Nigeria is on West Africa Time (UTC+1) all year.

• Format: +234 followed by ten digits, dropping the 0.
• Valid mobile prefixes start 070, 080, 081, 090 or 091.
• Bank USSD codes need a SIM; use the number for SMS codes, WhatsApp and calls.
• Lagos is UTC+1 — the same as London in summer, one hour ahead in winter.
