FAQ
Yes, when the selected number is accepted by Ryde and your task complies with its terms. Acceptance can depend on the country, the operator and the exact screen that asks for the number.
There is no fixed delivery time — it depends on current routing. Before buying, compare the recent delivery statistics shown for the available operators and pick a route with a solid rate.
Check that the number was entered without a typo and that the service actually sent the SMS while the order was active. If the code does not arrive, the cost of the number returns to your 5SIM balance once the order closes, so you can try another operator.
No. A temporary number covers the current order only. If future logins or account recovery depend on the same phone number, use a number you control permanently instead.
There is no permanent best country — availability and delivery rates change. Use the live list on 5SIM, sort by delivery rate, or let Smart Buy choose among the currently available routes.
Prices depend on the country and operator and start from a few cents. The live price list for Ryde is shown on this page and in your dashboard before you confirm the purchase.
