How WhatsApp verifies your number
WhatsApp ties every account to one phone number. When you register, the app sends a 6-digit registration code by SMS. If the SMS does not come through, WhatsApp usually offers a "Call me" option after a countdown, and an automated voice reads the code out loud. Both the text and the call reach your SMS Hallo number, so you can use whichever WhatsApp offers.
If you request codes several times in a row, WhatsApp adds a wait timer before you can ask again, and the timer grows with each attempt. Waiting it out is the only fix; repeated requests do not speed it up.

If the code doesn't arrive
Wait for the timer and request the code again, or choose the voice-call option. If the number still doesn't work with WhatsApp, replace it free with another +39 number within 7 days, or get a 100% refund.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use an SMS Hallo number for WhatsApp Business?
Yes. WhatsApp Business verifies numbers the same way, by SMS code or voice call, and both reach your SMS Hallo dashboard.
Do I need to keep the number after verification?
Yes, if you care about the account. WhatsApp asks for a new code when you change phones or reinstall, and an expired number may later go to someone else.
Can I answer WhatsApp's verification call?
Yes. Every SMS Hallo number includes unlimited incoming calls, so the voice code reaches you in the browser dialer or call log.
Will my WhatsApp chats be visible to SMS Hallo?
No. SMS Hallo only receives the verification SMS or call. Your WhatsApp chats stay end-to-end encrypted inside the app.
