The complete guide to number rentals
A practical handbook for buying and managing rented numbers, receiving SMS, keeping account records, working with large fleets and transferring ownership.
Transfer a number to another user
Prepare a complete handover, understand immediate transfers and claim links, and resolve common recipient or eligibility problems.
Save account records, credentials and notes
Keep each service’s login, password, handover instructions and documents together with its rented number.
Buy a rental and choose its term
Select service, country, duration and quantity, then check the price and actual purchase results.
Use Workspace for one number
Keep account records, incoming SMS and number-management actions together while working on a selected rental.
Manage 100+ numbers with Fleet
Find the right rentals, prioritize expiring numbers, review batch actions and export a working page.
Upload documents and ZIP, RAR or other archives
Attach files to saved account records, preview supported documents and transfer the complete bundle with a number.
Auto-renew, expiry and continued access
Check renewal eligibility, fund the wallet in time and understand what happens when a rental ends.
Cancel a rental and check a refund
Understand the 5–120 minute window, why SMS blocks cancellation and how to follow a pending result.
Read rental SMS and its history
Find the latest relevant message and use the correct copy control.
Getting started with SMS.Red
Find your way around the site and choose the right workflow for your first task.
Sign in and manage account settings
Use your account’s sign-in method, reset a forgotten password and set the application language.
Receive a one-time verification SMS
Choose a service and country, buy one verification and follow its short-lived order.
Find messages in Inbox
Use recent messages, history and filters to locate an SMS without opening each number.
Troubleshoot a missing SMS or code
Separate a rejected number, delayed delivery, wrong selection and an expired order before buying again.
Compare offers with Number Finder
Browse current receiving options before signing in and purchasing.
Fund your wallet and follow a payment
Compare available payment methods, review fees and wait for confirmed credit before purchasing.
Read transaction history and payment states
Locate deposits, purchases or refunds and distinguish a request from a completed result.
Forward incoming SMS to Telegram
Connect the SMS bot, pause forwarding or disconnect without confusing it with Telegram sign-in.
Open and follow a support ticket
Give support useful evidence, read replies and close an issue when it is resolved.
Privacy and ad measurement choices
Review the site’s policy and change the optional measurement choice in your browser.
Referrals and features that are still coming soon
Identify working links and controls without assuming that an unfinished feature is available.
Buy, install and manage an eSIM
Choose a mobile-data plan, wait for provisioning, install its QR/LPA profile and review usage or top-ups.
Buy and manage a mobile proxy
Connect a location, copy current credentials, reset the connection and renew the selected license.
Supply numbers from an Android phone
Apply for enrollment, install the official app, pair a dedicated SIM and follow earnings and withdrawal requests.
Use the developer API and API keys
Create a server-side key, use the live contract and retry purchases without accidental duplicates.
Receive SMS events with webhooks
Create a public HTTPS endpoint, save its secret and verify signed events with duplicate-safe processing.
Create and configure a partner website
Choose a domain, set your branding and follow payment, DNS and TLS setup.
Set partner prices and service availability
Choose the correct pricing context, set markups and review what is on sale.
Find resellers and manage their markups
Use the partner reseller list to open the correct store’s pricing.
Read partner statistics and customer activity
Compare income, activation history and the customer view within the selected account.
Use the partner wallet, withdrawals and settings
