Virtual Number for WhatsApp Verification
About WhatsApp
WhatsApp verification requires a phone number, but many users prefer not to expose their personal phone number for privacy reasons. A virtual phone number for WhatsApp provides a secure alternative, letting you verify your account without compromising your real contact information.
What Is a Virtual Phone Number, and How Does It Work with WhatsApp?
A virtual phone number is not tied to a physical SIM card or mobile device. It works through an internet connection on smartphones and computers to receive SMS messages and calls, making it perfect for online verifications.
To create a WhatsApp business account or personal profile, you need to verify with a code received via SMS. With a temp number for WhatsApp verification, you can complete this process without exposing your personal mobile number, protecting your privacy while accessing WhatsApp features.
How to Buy a Virtual Number for WhatsApp
Getting a virtual phone number for WhatsApp verification via HeroSMS involves just a few simple steps:
- Select your desired country from the menu available at the top of the page. Specify additional options such as "Verification by number” if needed.
- Your selected country's available virtual phone number will pop up under “My purchases” heading. This temporary phone number can be used as a fake WhatsApp number to verify your account privately. Copy this number and enter it into the verification prompt when setting up your WhatsApp account.

- As soon as you attempt verification with the virtual number, HeroSMS will automatically place a call to it. The last few digits of the number will then display on your Activation card on the website. Input these digits into the verification box to fully confirm your virtual number with WhatsApp.
Note: Virtual numbers provided for verification remain active for 5 minutes. To avoid failed verification, if you do not receive the automated call within the first few minutes, quickly cancel the number by clicking the red X icon. This gives you a few more minutes to verify with a new virtual number.
