Verification texts & compatibility
Whether a verification text arrives depends on the sending service, its policies, and network routing — not only on your number. Here's how we approach it honestly.
Verification text delivery depends on the sending service, its policies, and network routing. Support is not guaranteed for every service or every message.
What affects delivery
Each platform decides which numbers it accepts and how it routes messages. The same number can work with one service and not another, and a platform can change its policy at any time.
What we will publish
As we run real tests, we'll publish results with the date tested, the category of message, and the limitations that apply — marked "Last tested", never "Guaranteed".
What we won't do
We don't promise that every bank, app, or website will deliver codes to any number, and we don't show live-looking checkers that aren't backed by real tests.
