Free public numbers FAQ

Are these numbers really free?

Yes. Public numbers are free to use. Because they are shared, never use them for banking, crypto, or personal accounts.

My message did not arrive — what now?

Public numbers are heavily used and some senders block them. For reliable delivery, rent a private number — if no SMS arrives, your funds are returned.

Are public numbers safe for personal accounts?

No. Messages on public numbers are visible to everyone. Never use them for banking, financial, government, or any personal account.
