Number details

What the line does, what it does not do, and what happens at the end of the term, answered before you buy rather than after.

Incoming SMS: As many as arrive during the term. An all-service line takes them from any sender, short codes included; a line listed for Amazon takes that service's only.
Outgoing SMS and calls: Not available. A rented line receives; it does not send and it does not ring.
Type of number: A carrier-issued mobile number, not VoIP. Whether a service accepts it is still up to that service.
Who it is rented to: You alone, for the whole term. It is not drawn from a shared pool, and its messages show only in your account.
How long it stays yours: Exactly the term you paid for. It then returns to the provider, and a term that simply ran its course is not refunded — you had the number for all of it.
Renewing: A renewal goes back to the same line, so the number and every message on it survive. Nothing renews on its own unless you switch it on.
Paying: One charge per term from your prepaid balance, topped up with crypto. There is no subscription to cancel.

How a rented Amazon number works

Pick the country

Every country listed has a line in stock. Pick the country whose number you need; its dial code comes with the line.

Choose how long you keep it

Every term we can actually source is listed at its own price, and a longer one is quoted at what it really costs rather than at an implied monthly rate. Nothing is prorated and nothing is hidden.

Enter the number in Amazon

If Amazon asks for a number, type it as issued. SMS show in your SIMAREA account, and while you renew, the line stays yours.

Why rent a number for Amazon?

A separate number for your Amazon account

A rented line can receive Amazon's codes while your personal number stays for calls and family. Whether Amazon accepts a rented number is up to Amazon.

The same number if Amazon asks again

This is the reason to rent rather than buy a single code. If Amazon asks for a code again, for example on a login from a new device, the number is the same for as long as you renew.

Non-VoIP, carrier-issued

Some marketplaces and apps reject internet (VoIP) numbers on sight. These are carrier-issued mobile lines, not VoIP.

All your messages in one place

SMS show in your SIMAREA account, which opens on a phone or a computer. You do not need a second SIM card for this.

When a rented line earns its keep

For an account you mean to keep

If Amazon asks for a number, give it the line you rent: while you renew, the same line can receive a later code too. A rental lasts the whole term.

For keeping your own number out of it

When a form asks you to verify a number, give it a line you rent, and keep your own number for the people who call you.

What we promise you

No star ratings and no user counts on this page: we have not measured those, and a number nobody measured is worth nothing to you. These are promises instead — each one is behavior you can hold us to.

The line is yours alone
For the whole term. It is not shared or let to anyone else underneath you, and what arrives on it shows only in your account.
A renewal never changes your number
Renewing goes back to the very same line rather than to another provider, so the number you gave out — and every message on it — carries over intact.
We never sell a term we cannot source
A term appears here only while a line for it is in stock. An absent term is honest scarcity, not a price we are keeping back.
Nothing renews behind your back
Automatic renewal stays off until you turn it on. A term you forget about ends quietly — it does not charge you again and it does not roll into another one.
A line we cannot hand over costs you nothing
If provisioning fails after you are charged, the money returns to your balance automatically. No ticket, no waiting, and no line half-bought.

Where a virtual number for Amazon gets its codes

A virtual number for Amazon is the mobile number you keep under Login & security on your own Amazon account. Amazon may text a one-time password to it:

when you sign in from a browser or device Amazon doesn't recognize;
as the second step of Two-Step Verification, once you turn it on;
when you confirm a change to the account, such as a new password.

Two-Step Verification lets you add a backup method: set the rented line to text messages and add an authenticator app, so the line is never your only key.

A seller login has to outlast many sign-ins

For a seller, the login is the business. Amazon asks Seller Central users to sign in with Two-Step Verification, and a code can be asked for each time you sign in on a new computer. A number that lapses in a quiet month can leave the store's dashboard out of reach.

So a seller's line belongs on 6 or 12 months, with auto-renewal switched on in your SIMAREA account (it stays off until you turn it on). Each renewal continues the same number. An unrenewed term returns the number to the provider, so move Two-Step Verification to another number or an app before you let it go.

Amazon line or all-service line

Amazon line: listed for Amazon alone, in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, for 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, or 12 months. Once paid, it can't be canceled.
All-service line: receives SMS from any sender, in the same three countries plus Austria, Germany, Hong Kong, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. It can be canceled for a full refund soon after renting, provided no SMS has come in and the provider still accepts it: two hours at most, sometimes less.

The ladder may quote either kind for a country and term, so check the Services row of your order. To rent the all-service kind on purpose, open a country page such as Germany.

Amazon numbers: what people ask

Amazon wants to call me with the code. What do I do?

Choose the text option. The rented line receives SMS but can't answer calls, so a voice code never reaches it.

Will Amazon take a rented number?

Amazon makes that call, not SIMAREA, and it can't be promised. When you add or change the mobile number under Login & security, Amazon may text it a one-time password to confirm it; that code shows in your SIMAREA account.

Do I still need the number after the first code?

Yes, for Two-Step Verification or a Seller Central login. The next Two-Step Verification code at a new computer goes to the same number, so it has to still be yours: keep the rental running for as long as Amazon has it on file.

What if the number fails while my seller account depends on it?

Tell support, which answers 24/7. When the provider's side is at fault, you get a replacement number or the unused part of the term back. A replacement may be a different number, so sign in with your authenticator app and update the phone in Amazon. The refund policy covers the rest.
