How to create a VirtualSMS account
In short
Email + password, deposit crypto, verify in minutes. No KYC.
Sign up with email + password. No phone number, no government ID, no KYC. Fund your balance with USDT (TRC-20) or BNB-USDT (BEP-20). You can buy your first verification within minutes.
Sign up — 3 steps
- Visit virtualsms.io/signup and enter an email + password.
- Click the confirmation link we send to your email. (Use any inbox — even a throwaway one works.)
- You’re in. Your dashboard shows zero balance and prompts you to deposit.
Fund your balance
Balance is funded with cryptocurrency through a secure payment processor. Two networks supported:
- USDT (TRC-20) on Tron — low fees, fast confirmations
- BNB-USDT (BEP-20) on Binance Smart Chain — alternative if Tron is unavailable to you
Minimum deposit is $2, which covers a typical activation plus a small buffer. No maximum and no expiry on balance — funds stay in your account indefinitely. Most users deposit $5–$25 for casual use; power users keep $50+ on hand for multiple verifications a week.
Buy your first verification
Head to virtualsms.io/services, pick the platform you want to verify (Telegram, WhatsApp, Google, Discord, etc.), choose a country, and click buy. The number appears in your dashboard immediately. Plug it into the platform you’re signing up to, and the SMS lands in your dashboard within seconds.
What we ask vs what we don’t
We ask for: an email address, a password. That’s it for the account.
We do NOT ask for: phone number, government ID, proof-of-address, selfie verification, social security number, billing address, real name. The product doesn’t need that data to function, and our customer base actively values not having to surrender it to a verification-service vendor.
