Funds added to your balance are prepaid credit for purchasing numbers. Refunds for undelivered SMS are described in our Refund Policy.

Third-party services decide on their own which numbers to accept. We cannot guarantee a specific service will send a code to a given number.

The service is provided "as is". To the extent permitted by law, our liability is limited to the amount you paid for the affected order.
7. Changes
We may update these terms. Continued use after changes means you accept the new version.
