Reading this list

Two numbers sit on every tile and they are not interchangeable. The tariff is a floor — the least any carrier anywhere is charging for that activation this minute — so what you settle on is that figure or higher, never lower. The count beside it says how many countries can deliver the code right now. Breadth is not quality: a service answering in four countries is usually one that accepts domestic lines only, and those four are precisely the ones worth knowing.

Why two visits never show the same list

Both figures come from the carrier feed, not from an editor. Networks cycle their ranges without warning, platforms widen and narrow what they accept, and neither waits for a page to be rewritten. A service showing 145 countries at breakfast can show fewer by evening and more the next morning. Read every figure here as a measurement taken now, because that is all it claims to be.

When a service is missing

A service missing from this page means no carrier is holding a free line for it this minute — not that we turn it away. The same activation often reappears within the hour, so a second look beats a conclusion. Services also travel under two names more often than not: if the one you know returns nothing, type the other into the filter above the list.

Questions this page raises

Is the tariff on a tile the whole cost?

It is. Nothing is added on top: no handling fee, no order charge, no monthly minimum. The tile shows where that service opens, and the balance moves only once a code has actually landed.

What is the number printed under each service?

How many countries hold a free line for it as of now. Open the service to see them one by one, each with its tariff and the lines still idle there.

Why are two comparable services priced so far apart?

Because platforms consume lines at very different rates. One that retires a whole range after a single registration keeps those lines permanently scarce, and the tariff is simply that scarcity written down.
