A real phone number for Microsoft

A Microsoft account covers Outlook, OneDrive, Xbox, Skype and Windows sign-in, so many people add a dedicated number as security info. SMS Hallo gives you a real mobile number in the country of your choice, so you can create and secure your Microsoft account without sharing your personal number.

The Microsoft code lands in your SMS Hallo inbox within seconds and is ready to copy with one tap. Because you keep the number for as long as you like, you can always receive new login codes and recover your account later.

Every number includes unlimited incoming SMS, 500 outgoing SMS and 1,000 calling minutes a month, plus unlimited incoming calls, from just $1.80 a month (billed yearly).

And it's risk-free: if the number doesn't work with Microsoft, replace it free within 7 days or get a 100% refund.

Every number includes

  • Unlimited incoming SMS — Receive every text and verification code, with no monthly cap.
  • 500 outgoing SMS / month — Reply and send texts from your number, anywhere in the world.
  • 1,000 calling minutes / month — Make calls from your number with a generous monthly allowance.
  • Unlimited incoming calls — Answer calls on your number as often as you like.
  • Keep it as long as you like — Renew monthly or for up to 12 months at a time. The number stays yours.
  • 7-day money-back guarantee — Not used it yet? Get a full refund within 7 days, no questions asked.
  • 7-day replacement guarantee — Doesn't work for you? Swap it for another number in the same country, free, in one click.
  • Works everywhere — or 100% refund — WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram, Google and more. If it doesn't work, you get every cent back.
Short answer

Yes, in most cases. Microsoft accounts can use a phone number to receive security codes by SMS, and an SMS Hallo real mobile number receives them in your dashboard. You can use the number when creating an account, as security info or for two-step verification, and if the code never arrives you can swap the number free within 7 days or get a 100% refund.

How Microsoft verifies your number

When you create a Microsoft account, Microsoft may ask you to verify with a phone number and send a security code by text. The same happens when you add a number as security info in your account settings.

Microsoft sends codes to your number when you sign in from a new place, reset your password or change security settings. You can often choose between a text and a phone call. Keeping the number up to date in your security info helps you recover the account if you lose access to other methods.

With two-step verification turned on, sign-ins need your password plus a second method such as a code by SMS, a call or the Microsoft Authenticator app. Microsoft also offers passwordless sign-in through the app.

How to verify Microsoft with an SMS Hallo number

  1. Choose a country — Pick the country where you usually sign in.
  2. Rent the number — Rent a real mobile number on SMS Hallo and pay with USDT or USDC.
  3. Add security info — Go to account.microsoft.com, Security, and add the number, or enter it during sign-up.
  4. Enter the code — Copy the security code from your SMS Hallo inbox with one tap.
  5. Enable two-step verification — Turn it on under Advanced security options and add Microsoft Authenticator.
  6. Save a recovery code — Generate a recovery code and set auto-renew for the number.

Troubleshooting Microsoft verification

No security code

Wait a few minutes and resend once, or choose a call. If nothing arrives, swap the number free within 7 days or request a 100% refund.

Too many codes requested

Microsoft may pause codes for a while. Wait before trying again.

Number not accepted

Microsoft decides which numbers it accepts. Use the free replacement within 7 days or request a 100% refund.

Wrong country code

Check that the country chosen matches the number.

Locked out

Keep the number renewed and store your recovery code safely.

Code arrives but is rejected

Microsoft security codes expire after a short time and only the newest one works. Request a fresh code and enter it right away from your SMS Hallo inbox.

Which country to choose for Microsoft

Choose the country you usually sign in from, since Microsoft looks at location when deciding whether to ask for extra checks. If you travel, use your home country. No country is certain to be accepted, so the free replacement and refund cover you. For a work or school Microsoft account, your organisation's IT team controls sign-in methods, so check with them before adding any number.
