Questions about French numbers
Is it a +33 number?
Yes. French numbers start with +33, France’s country code. If an app asks for the country first, choose France, then enter the rest of the number.
Can I get a French number if I’m not in France?
Yes. Pick France at checkout, wherever you are. The app buttons on this page open checkout with France already picked.
Which apps have French numbers?
It changes with stock. Checkout lists the countries each app has right now. The buttons on this page pick France when the app has it; when it hasn’t, checkout says so and keeps Best available.
What does a French number cost?
Most are $1, and some apps cost $2 there: checkout shows the price before you pay. It comes from your balance. You can add from $1 with crypto, or $1.30 by card, and adding $5 or more by card gets you $1 extra.
What if the code doesn’t arrive?
Give it a minute, then ask the app to send the code again. If no SMS reaches the number within 20 minutes, the order is refunded to your balance automatically, and you can try again or pick another country.
Will every app accept a French number?
Most apps accept our numbers, but no app accepts every number. If an app turns one down, cancel the order before an SMS arrives and the money goes back to your balance.
Can I keep the number?
No. It receives codes only while its 20-minute window is open. Once you’re in, add an email or an authenticator app to the account, so you can still sign in later.
Can the number take a phone call?
No. It receives SMS only, so if an app offers to call you with the code, choose a text message instead.
