VirtualSMS provides Steam verification via real France mobile numbers (++33 prefix) — physical carrier-issued SIM cards, not VoIP. France numbers from regional operators pass Steam's network-detection checks where Google Voice, TextNow, and MySudo get rejected as disposable. Numbers activate in under 30 seconds. Pricing from $— per activation, paid in USDT, USDC, BTC, LTC, or SOL via NOWPayments. If the Steam code doesn't arrive within 20 minutes, your balance is refunded automatically. Alternative to hero-sms, 5sim, SMSPool, SMS-Man, OnlineSim for France Steam verification — with real SIMs instead of shared VoIP pools.
Are these real French SIM cards or virtual numbers?
Real French physical SIMs on actual carrier networks — Orange, SFR, Bouygues, Free — plus popular sub-brands (Sosh, RED by SFR, B&You) and MVNOs (Lebara France, Lyca France, La Poste Mobile) that ride on those same networks. Indistinguishable from a regular +33 mobile to any verifying service.
Will French numbers work for WhatsApp, Tinder, and Le Bon Coin?
Yes. French +33 mobile ranges pass WhatsApp, Telegram, Tinder, Bumble, Le Bon Coin, Vinted, and most EU-region services reliably.
How long do French numbers stay valid?
A rental window is shown at checkout. Pay-per-SMS releases the number after the code arrives (under 30 seconds typical). Long-term rentals (4h, 24h, 7d, 30d) stay yours for the full period.
Do you support carriers like Orange, SFR, Bouygues, Free, plus sub-brands Sosh, RED, B&You and MVNOs Lebara and Lyca?
Yes. Inventory rotates across French networks — Orange, SFR, Bouygues Telecom, Free Mobile — plus heavily-used sub-brands (Sosh, RED by SFR, B&You) and MVNOs (Lebara France, Lyca France, La Poste Mobile), depending on real-time stock. Specific carrier per number depends on availability.
Is KYC or ID required to use a French number?
No KYC. Email + deposit + order. No passport or address required.
What's your refund policy if a French number doesn't receive SMS?
No-code, no-charge. Failed orders auto-refund to your VirtualSMS balance.
Are these real France SIM cards for Steam?
Yes — real physical France SIM cards on actual carrier networks (+33), not VoIP. Steam verification systems pass these consistently because they look identical to a regular France mobile number to Steam's detection.
How fast does the SMS code arrive on a France number for Steam?
Most Steam verification codes arrive in under 30 seconds on our France numbers. If no code is received within 20 minutes, the order is automatically refunded to your VirtualSMS balance.
