For an account you mean to keep
If OpenAI / ChatGPT 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.
3 · Your order
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.
Every country listed has a line in stock. Pick the country whose number you need; its dial code comes with the line.
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.
If OpenAI / ChatGPT asks for a number, type it as issued. SMS show in your SIMAREA account, and while you renew, the line stays yours.
A rented line can receive OpenAI / ChatGPT's codes while your personal number stays for calls and family. Whether OpenAI / ChatGPT accepts a rented number is up to OpenAI / ChatGPT.
This is the reason to rent rather than buy a single code. If OpenAI / ChatGPT 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.
Some marketplaces and apps reject internet (VoIP) numbers on sight. These are carrier-issued mobile lines, not VoIP.
SMS show in your SIMAREA account, which opens on a phone or a computer. You do not need a second SIM card for this.

If OpenAI / ChatGPT 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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
If provisioning fails after you are charged, the money returns to your balance automatically. No ticket, no waiting, and no line half-bought.
Each country shows its all-service line and, where one exists, a line sold for OpenAI / ChatGPT alone. Each row quotes the cheapest term available and names it — pick a country in the ladder above to see all of its terms.

OpenAI may ask you to verify a phone number on your account, when you sign up or later on, for example on its developer platform. Once verified, the number may stay on the account. A virtual number for OpenAI is a line you rent and renew, so that if OpenAI sends a code to it again, the code lands in your SIMAREA account instead of on a number someone else now holds.
The line receives SMS and nothing else: it can't take a call or send a text. Whether OpenAI accepts a particular number is OpenAI's decision.
An OpenAI line is rented in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, for 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, or 12 months. Match the term to the account rather than to the moment of sign-up: for a ChatGPT account you'll keep using, take 6 or 12 months with auto-renewal switched on (it stays off until you turn it on). Each renewal carries on the same number.
Next to the OpenAI line sits the all-service line, which receives SMS from any sender. For each term, the ladder on this page quotes the lower-priced of the two, and your order's Services row shows which you'll get. The OpenAI line can't be canceled once paid. The all-service line can be, for a full refund, shortly after renting, provided no SMS has arrived and the provider accepts it: two hours at most, sometimes less. To pick the all-service line deliberately, rent it from a country page such as the United States one.
It lands in your SIMAREA account as long as the term is still running, or you renewed before it ended. Once a rental lapses, the number goes back to the provider and stops reaching you.
No. Your conversations stay in ChatGPT. The rented line's only job is to receive text messages, which you open in your SIMAREA account.
Make sure the number on your OpenAI account matches the one in your SIMAREA account, digit for digit, and ask OpenAI for another code. Should the line fail on the provider's side, support (24/7) swaps it or refunds what is left of the term, per the refund policy.
Choose a line and a term in the ladder at the top. For an account you'll keep, switch on auto-renewal once the number is yours.
