Rent a private phone number for telegram for 7 days to 12 months, receive every Telegram SMS code online, and keep the same number each time you renew.
Telegram ties an account to a phone number and checks it once by SMS, then asks for that number again every time you add a device or come back after signing out. The number on this page answers those messages for you. It is a real mobile number, rented for a term rather than borrowed for a single code.
It is dedicated to Telegram, so the only traffic it carries is Telegram’s own: the sign-up code, the login codes for a second device, and the confirmations sent when you change a security setting. All of them appear in your dashboard under My Rentals, usually within seconds. There is no app to install and no SIM to put in a phone.
Pick the country Telegram should see and how long you want the number; the full price is on screen before you pay and the number is active the moment the payment goes through. Renew before the term ends and you keep the same digits. Set a Cloud Password on the account while you are at it — that is what keeps the account yours if you ever let the number go.
What it is not: a one-time code. For a single verification, a temporary number for Telegram is cheaper: you pay per SMS and the number is released afterwards.
How to Get a Virtual Number for Telegram
2
Copy your number
The number is reserved for you alone for the whole term, not for a single code. Copy it and paste it into the Telegram sign-up screen.
3
Receive your SMS code
Telegram sends the verification code to that number and we forward it straight to your dashboard, usually within seconds. Every later code Telegram sends arrives in the same place.
Why Use a Virtual Number for Telegram?
Your personal number stays private.
Your own number never touches the account, so other users cannot see it and it cannot be matched to your profile.
A separate account for business.
Keep client chats, support channels and marketing communities away from the messenger you use with family and friends.
Registration when your carrier does not deliver the code.
Some operators filter verification messages from messengers. A number from another country goes around that problem without any workaround on your side.
Your main number stays out of spam lists.
A rented number absorbs the marketing messages that tend to follow any sign-up.
Telegram Verification Without Using Your Own Number
If you are looking to create telegram account without phone number verification, you will find it is impossible because every account has to be confirmed by SMS at least once, even if you later use it only through a username. What you can avoid is putting your personal number through that step.
That is exactly what a virtual number does. It takes the verification for you, and once the code is confirmed the account belongs to you. Set a Cloud Password (two-step verification) straight away and your access stops depending on the number at all.
A One-Time Code or a Number You Keep?
A temporary number. One number for one verification, released as soon as the code has arrived. If all you need is to get into an account once, that is the cheaper option, and it lives on our temporary number for Telegram page.
A rented number. The number on this page. It is yours for the term you choose, from 7 days to 12 months, and it keeps receiving Telegram’s messages the whole time. This is the right option when you expect repeat codes, for example when you sign in again from a work device or administer a channel from more than one place.
Neither one is permanent. We do not sell numbers outright. If what you need is a number that stays yours indefinitely, that is a different product entirely: Telegram’s own Fragment platform auctions anonymous +888 numbers that are owned rather than rented, at a very different price. For verification and normal account use, a rented number plus a Cloud Password does the same job at a fraction of the cost.
How to buy telegram number and set it up, step by step
What a virtual number actually is
A virtual number is a real phone number that works without a physical SIM card in your hand. It can receive SMS, and that is all we need it for: Telegram sends a code, the number receives it, we pass it to you.
The number on this page is dedicated to Telegram, so it carries Telegram’s messages and nothing else, and it stays yours for the whole term rather than for one code.
How to buy and set up a number, step by step
- Create an account and top up your balance.
- Choose the country and select Telegram from the list of services.
- Pick a term, from 7 days to 12 months, and pay from your balance.
- Copy the number from My Rentals.
- Start registration in Telegram and paste the number in.
- Wait for the code to appear under My Rentals, then enter it in Telegram to finish.
Security rules worth following
Turn on two-step verification first. This is the single most important step. A rented number goes back into circulation once you stop renewing it, and a Cloud Password is what makes sure that never becomes your problem. Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Two-Step Verification. Add a recovery email while you are there.
Do not log out during the first day. Signing out and back in from a different device within the first 24 hours can look like suspicious activity to Telegram’s systems.
Hide your number in privacy settings. Set "Who can see my phone number" to Nobody as soon as you are in.
Renew before the term ends. A per-service number cannot be cancelled and nothing renews by itself. Renew from My Rentals while the term is still running and you keep the same digits; we email you before it ends so the date does not creep up on you.
Use rented numbers for light tasks. They suit messaging, communities and marketing work. They are not the right tool for anything where losing the number would be serious, such as banking.

What customers say
Best virtual number website
Using this site from more than 1 month and everything works perfect till now.. no problem faced.. UI is simple and easy to understand, buying number is fast.. numbers are always fresh and otp comes instantly no waiting time.. I really suggest them best site in 2026
Worked as intended
Well, it worked as intended. It was very easy to use the service, so I can only recommend it. Wish there were help desk to check some questions but regardless it was a satisfactory purchase.
Excellent service. So happy I found it
Excellent service. Works when it works and replaced when it doesnt. Fair pricing and good perks as well.
It definitely works
It definitely works, but it can be confusing if you are not aware of what some of the services do to prevent having multiple numbers. WhatsApp will try to prevent you from making a new number on the same phone. Just have to use another phone to create the account and then you can sign in properly. I was confused why I kept going through so many numbers not working, but it was because I was using the same device that I recently had an account on. I deleted my previous account, but WhatsApp saves your device info for 30 days.
Much more reliable
SMS a little more expensive than other pages, but they are much more reliable, and work.
My experience has been great
My experience has been great because 1001sms has made my job so effortless and a 10 man task feel like a job for just 1.
Great service
Great service, absolute amazin for 3rd Countries who cant use amaing services without phone numbers
I have used number from this site and it's good
I have used number from this site and it worked perfectly. 1001sms is a good choice when it comes to getting number from any country and any service
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
You choose a country and a term, we give you a number, and Telegram sends the verification code to it. We forward that code to your dashboard within seconds. The number stays yours for the whole term, so every later code Telegram sends arrives in the same place.
Yes. Telegram requires a phone number for every new account and there is no way around that step. What you can choose is whose number it is. A virtual number completes the verification so your personal one stays off the account entirely.
Not from us. Every number we offer is rented for a term: 7 days to 12 months on this page, or a single verification on our temporary number page. A permanent option does exist, but it is a different product. Telegram’s Fragment platform auctions anonymous +888 numbers that belong to the buyer outright, and they cost considerably more. For most purposes the stronger protection is a Cloud Password, because it keeps the account yours even if a number is later reassigned to someone else.
As long as you keep renewing it. Terms run from 7 days to 12 months, and you renew from My Rentals before the current term ends to keep the same digits. Nothing renews by itself and nothing is charged once a term ends, so a number you stop paying for simply goes back into the pool.
Give it a minute first, since delivery occasionally lags at peak times, and look in your dashboard under My Rentals rather than on a phone — that is where the code appears. Ask Telegram to resend if nothing shows up, and contact support if it keeps failing: they can tell you which countries are delivering Telegram codes reliably that day. A per-service number cannot be cancelled after purchase, so it is worth checking the country before you pay rather than after.
Yes. Once the account is verified, the channels and groups you create belong to the account rather than the number, so one verification is enough to set up as many as you need.
Yes. A verified account works with Telegram the same way any other account does, including Stories, Premium and channel monetisation. Nothing about the way the account was verified limits what you can use afterwards.
