Plan Details

SMS Only

This plan comes with a virtual phone number, but this number can only receive texts (SMS). Voice call service is not available. Once your plan has expired, this number will be recycled automatically and you will lose the remaining balance of any texts and your message history.

Activation and Expiry of plan

Your virtual phone number is activated upon successful purchase. The validity period will start immediately. For example, if you purchase a 30-day plan on Jan 1, 2022 at 4 pm, it will expire on Jan 31, 2022 at 4 pm.

Once all your SMS plans are expired, your phone number will be released. After that, if there is no further activity after 10 days, you will no longer be able to re-activate the number.

Volume of texts

Receiving SMS messages will count towards the consumption of your SMS package. Long texts may be divided into several segments based on character limits -each segment is considered 1 SMS message.

Coverage

  • Your virtual number is able to send and receive texts to/from any phone number of the same country (for example, if you bought a Nomad USA plan, you can send/receive texts to/from any USA phone number)
  • You may also be able to send/receive texts to/from a phone number of a different country than the plan you purchased, but this is not guaranteed, as it depends on the policy of the counterparty (for example, if you bought a Nomad USA plan, you may or may not be able to send/receive texts to/from a UK number).
  • Using your number to register for services or receive automated texts (such as banking 2FA/OTP or signing up for ride hailing services, etc) is not guaranteed, as it depends on the app/service in question. We advise users not to rely on our virtual number service for such cases.
