Last updated: March 2026
Welcome to TempNumber.me. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the TempNumber.me website and all related services (collectively, the “Service”). Please read these Terms carefully before using our Service. By accessing or using TempNumber.me, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to all of these Terms, you must not use our Service.
1. Service Description
TempNumber.me provides temporary virtual phone numbers that can receive SMS messages online. The Service is designed for legitimate privacy protection and account verification purposes. We offer both shared temporary numbers, which are accessible to all users, and premium private numbers for exclusive use. Temporary numbers are provided on an as-available basis and may be rotated, recycled, or removed at any time without prior notice. The Service does not support voice calls, MMS messages, or outbound SMS.
2. User Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years of age to use TempNumber.me. Users between the ages of 13 and 18 must have parental or guardian consent to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet these age requirements.
The Service is available to users worldwide, subject to applicable local laws and regulations. You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service complies with the laws of your jurisdiction. We reserve the right to restrict access from specific regions or countries if required by law or necessary to prevent abuse.
3. Acceptable Use
You agree to use TempNumber.me only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. The Service is intended for legitimate activities such as protecting your personal phone number during online sign-ups, testing applications, and verifying accounts on platforms where you prefer not to share your real number.
4. Prohibited Uses
You may not use the Service for any of the following purposes:
- Fraud, identity theft, impersonation, or any form of deception intended to harm others
- Creating accounts for the purpose of spamming, phishing, or distributing malware
- Harassment, stalking, threatening, or intimidating any person
- Sending unsolicited bulk messages or commercial communications
- Circumventing security measures, bans, or access restrictions imposed by other services
- Any activity that violates applicable local, state, national, or international laws or regulations
- Accessing or attempting to access other users' data or our internal systems without authorization
- Automated scraping, crawling, or data extraction from our website beyond what is permitted by our robots.txt file

We reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate action against anyone who violates these prohibitions, including blocking access and reporting to law enforcement authorities.
5. Payments, Billing, and Refunds
TempNumber.me offers both shared and premium private temporary phone numbers. Premium numbers and certain services require payment. All prices are displayed before purchase and may vary by country, number type, and availability. Payments are processed through our third-party payment processors. By making a purchase, you agree to the payment processor's terms of service.
All sales are final. Due to the instant-delivery nature of temporary phone numbers, refunds are generally not available once a number has been assigned. However, if a number fails to receive SMS messages due to a technical issue on our end, you may request a replacement or credit by contacting our support team at support@tempnumber.me within 24 hours of purchase. Refund requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
We reserve the right to change our pricing at any time without prior notice. Price changes do not affect numbers already purchased. Recurring charges, if applicable, will be communicated clearly before activation.

7. Service Availability
We strive to maintain high availability of the Service but do not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free, or secure access at all times.
