About PrivacyNumber

PrivacyNumber is a privacy-first telecom provider that sells real, long-term local mobile and landline phone numbers in 47 countries, with no identity verification and crypto-only billing. Each line is a genuine number allocated inside its country's national numbering plan — a French line is a real +33 6/7 mobile, a US line carries a real area code like 212 or 415 — managed entirely from a web panel.

We occupy a specific category: private telecom you keep, not disposable infrastructure. A PrivacyNumber line is yours for as long as you renew it, with full two-way calling, SMS/MMS, voicemail and optional AI features. It is the opposite of a throwaway OTP code or a recycled gateway number.

• Real local lines, not shared VoIP relays or +1-800 bridges
• No KYC, no app, no SIM — browser only
• Crypto-only payment, no card on file

If you are weighing a permanent line against a temporary one, our guide on long-term vs temporary numbers explains the trade-offs.

No KYC matters because data you never collect cannot be leaked, subpoenaed or sold. PrivacyNumber is built on data-minimization: we do not ask for your name, address, government ID or payment card, so there is simply no identity dataset attached to your phone line in the first place.

Most providers tie a number to a verified identity, then store that record indefinitely. That record becomes a liability — a target for breaches, a response to legal demands, and an asset that can be monetized. Our position is that the safest database is the one that does not exist.

• No identity on file — no ID, name, address or card to expose
• Email is optional and login-only — it is your panel access channel, not an identity check
• Crypto billing — we settle every payment to Monero (XMR), so the only thing observed is the on-chain transaction

This is what privacy-first telecom means in practice. Read more in how to keep your phone number private and our privacy policy.

You get a working line in four steps: pick a country, pick a number, pay in crypto, and the line is live in under 60 seconds — then you manage everything from the web panel. No account signup, identity check or app install is required to receive your number.

1. Pick a country. Browse availability across all 47 countries and choose mobile or landline.
2. Pick a number. Select a standard line, or pay a small premium for a memorable pattern.
3. Pay in crypto. Choose from 9 coins at checkout; payment confirms on-chain.
4. Go live in 60 seconds. The line activates and appears in your panel, ready for calls and SMS.

From the panel you handle inbound and outbound HD calls, send and receive SMS/MMS, read voicemail with transcription and translation, schedule messages, toggle on/off windows, and rotate caller ID. Developers and AI agents can drive the same actions through our REST API and webhooks. Optional AI add-ons handle auto-pickup, call screening, voicemail summaries and live translation across 50+ languages.

Yes — PrivacyNumber is a legitimate telecom service, and the lawful uses are broad: privacy, account verification, a business second line, travel and expat continuity, and any normal calling or messaging. Privacy is not the same as anonymity for wrongdoing, and our terms draw that line clearly.

We prohibit fraud, harassment, spam, impersonation and any use that breaks the law in your jurisdiction or the number's country. Operating without KYC does not exempt anyone from those rules; abuse leads to suspension. The full boundaries are in our Acceptable Use Policy and Terms.

Honest note: most consumer apps and OTP flows accept our lines, but some VoIP-aware fintech apps (for example Venmo and CashApp) and some banks or government portals run identity checks beyond SMS that no virtual provider can bypass. See supported verification use-cases for what works reliably.

Billing is crypto-only and transparent: a USD baseline of $7.49/mo adjusted by country tier, line type and billing period, plus a one-time $10 setup on your first invoice. Effective prices run roughly $3.58/mo (budget landline, yearly) to $16.18/mo (premium top-tier mobile, monthly). You can cancel any time by toggling auto-renew off — no fees and no claw-back.

If a service rejects a freshly activated line, support swaps you to a different carrier range free within 7 days. See full pricing and the refund policy, and check live availability and incidents on our status page.

Reach us through the contact form — that is the single channel for support, billing questions and carrier-range swaps. We deliberately do not publish a public email address or phone line, both to keep your inquiry private and to keep support tied to your panel rather than to an identity on file.

For most issues you will not need us at all: number selection, payment, activation, caller-ID settings, AI add-ons and cancellation are all self-service in the web panel. When you do write in, include your line and a clear description; because we hold no identity record, the panel and your line details are how we locate your service.
