About these terms
These terms apply when you use tomnumber, the website and the API, to buy one-time virtual phone numbers for receiving SMS verification codes. By creating an account you agree to them.
Your account
You sign up with a username, a password and an email address for account recovery, and are responsible for keeping the password safe. Up to 3 accounts can be created from one IP address.
We may suspend an account that breaks the acceptable use policy.
Balance
Your balance is kept in US dollars and is topped up with cryptocurrency through a payment window. Each top-up is between $50 and $1,000, and a bonus is added by amount as shown on the Add funds page.
The balance is used only to buy numbers. It cannot be withdrawn or transferred, and refunds are always made to the balance.
Numbers
A number is for one service and one country and stays open for 20 minutes. Every SMS for that service within that time is shown in your account and through the API.
Numbers receive SMS only. They cannot make calls or send messages, and they are released after the time runs out.
Refunds
If no code arrives within 20 minutes, the price is returned to your balance automatically. You can cancel a number before a code arrives and get the price back right away. A number that has received a code is not refunded. The refund policy has the details.
API
The API uses the same balance, prices and refund rules as the website. Keep your API key private; requests made with it count as yours.
Availability and prices
Services, countries and prices can change. The price shown when you get a number is the price you pay. A code depends on the service sending it, so we cannot promise that every service will send a code to every number.
Liability
tomnumber is provided as is. Our liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the number or top-up in question.
Changes
We may update these terms. The date above shows the latest version, and using the service after a change means you accept it.
