Entirely Free. Extremely Simple.

It’s rare nowadays to come across a highly sought-after service that is free. While many other companies claim to offer free services to receive SMS online, very few of them actually do in the end. This is because – for most – it is simply used as a marketing technique. “Tell them it’s free, we’ll get them to our website, and we’ll persuade them to pay for a premium service.” It’s not new news. This isn’t a technique we are fond of, and we don’t believe that ‘tricking’ people to get them onto TemporaryNumber would be futile. So here we have it: an entirely free service to receive SMS online. No credit card. No payment. Nothing.

Why Receive SMS Online?

The online SMS industry has really boomed of late. There are lots of reasons for this, some of the top ones we will explore further below.

• No Sim Card: you may be waiting for a new or replacement sim card, thus unable to use your own number at this time. You shouldn’t be penalized in such situations because you’re without a number! You can use TemporaryNumber to receive any SMSs you need to – for personal, verification, or other purposes.
• Increase online privacy: Anybody who has signed up for a new app or online service before will have experienced your number later being used as a marketing tool. This can come in the form of SMS messages and phone calls, which have one core aim: selling to you. This is extremely frustrating and a breach of your confidentiality. 
• Increase online security: Along the same theme as the above, your number can also be used to track your online activity regarding the types of services you’re prone to signing up for. Once again, this will be used to offer bespoke marketing material to you via call and text. 
• Offer a web-based service: It can be extremely frustrating when you cannot receive a message due to low or no network connection. In such cases, as long as you have WiFi, you can simply go onto TemporaryNumber and receive your message there within seconds.

Do I Need To Register To Use TemporaryNumber?

So as you know, our service is totally free to use, with no catches. That part, we really can’t shout loudly enough! But did you know that our service is also TOTALLY registration free?! This is because of the fact that so many of our users are interested in using our service in the first place as they are perhaps looking to increase their online privacy and anonymity. In which case, it would be totally counter-productive for those people to be asked for the very details they were looking to protect. As a result, you won’t need to enter any details at all to receive SMS online on TemporaryNumber. No name, no email, no number – nothing at all!

Is It Safe To Receive SMS Online?

Using TemporaryNumber to receive SMS online is totally safe and secure to use. In fact, all of our numbers are connected to real sim cards, which means that the services you’re signing up to won’t even see or notice any difference in how the number seems or looks. Totally safe and totally free!
