What else do people ask about Amazon numbers?

Counter open 08:00 to 24:00, Tehran time. Your question is not here? Message @vsim_support on Telegram with your order number.

What is a virtual number for Amazon?

A virtual number for Amazon is a real mobile number you rent online to receive one Amazon verification code by SMS, without a SIM card. On VSIM you choose the country, the number appears on your order page, the code shows up there, and the order closes. If no code arrives before the timer ends, the full price returns to your balance.

Which country is best for Amazon verification today?

England has the best measured odds right now: 95% of recent orders got the code, for $0.21. In all, 47 countries have a measured Amazon rate, and 20 of them deliver 50% or more. Odds are refreshed every 15 minutes.

How much does a Amazon virtual number cost?

Today Amazon numbers cost from $0.11 to $1.32 across 141 countries, and half of them cost $0.38 or less. You pay only for the number that receives the code: every number that does not is refunded in full.

If failed numbers are refunded, what does a low rate cost me?

Time. Each number waits about 15 minutes for its code. A country that delivers 50% needs two tries on average; one that delivers 5% needs twenty, which can mean hours of waiting. That is why this page ranks countries by odds first and price second.

How long is an Amazon one-time password valid?

Ten minutes, according to Amazon's help pages. Read it from your VSIM order and enter it straight away.

What if I lose the number on my Amazon account?

Amazon's advice is to sign in with a backup method or from a trusted device first. Without one, recovery needs identity verification, so add an authenticator app or a passkey as soon as you are in.

What happens if the Amazon code does not arrive?

The order closes when its timer ends, about 15 minutes in our tests and never more than 20, and the full price returns to your VSIM balance automatically. You can also cancel earlier yourself, as long as no SMS has arrived.

Can I keep the number for Amazon after the code?

No. A one-code number is released when the order closes, so a later Amazon code sent to it cannot reach you. If you need a number you keep, see VSIM permanent numbers, or add an email and a password to the account as soon as you are in.
