Vinted wants a phone number, and it does not take no for an answer. No code, no charge: nothing is billed for a number that stays silent. So borrow one — choose a market in SMS For U, give the number to Vinted, and the Vinted code arrives in your account by itself, seconds after Vinted sends it. 1,400 services sit in the same catalogue, with numbers from markets across Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa.
How you get your code
- Start in SMS For U by looking up Vinted.
- The app lists the countries open for Vinted at this moment; choose one of those.
- Say yes, and a working number is on your screen immediately.
- Hand that number to Vinted at the phone verification step in your profile, then trigger the code.
- Watch it land in SMS For U by itself, and paste it back where Vinted asked.
Why a phone number is asked for
Vinted wants a phone number so buyers and sellers can be reached about an order, and so one person does not open an unlimited number of accounts. Vinted does not ask during sign-up: the number is added later, in the account settings. The number goes in at: the phone verification step in your profile. Vinted normally asks for the number once and does not come back to it afterwards.
What the code looks like
Vinted sends a short numeric code by SMS. Whatever Vinted texts to the number is delivered into your SMS For U account automatically, a few seconds behind Vinted, with nothing to forward. Codes from Vinted go stale fast; use it as soon as it lands rather than later. One number normally carries one Vinted account.
What can go wrong
Vinted accepts numbers from many countries but not from all of them. Which countries work for Vinted changes over time, because Vinted adjusts its checks and because the available ranges of numbers change. That is the honest state of it — we can hand you a number, we cannot make Vinted take it. Nothing here commits Vinted to an outcome, and no hit rate is on display — a published figure would be wrong long before you read it.
Countries we serve
Below are the 50 markets we hold numbers in, Vinted included. Treat them as our footprint rather than as today’s shelf: ranges run dry and are topped up again while you read this, so a market listed here may be unavailable for Vinted within the hour. The country screen in the app is where that question is answered honestly for Vinted, because it is the only thing that updates as fast as the ranges do.

Common questions
How do I get a Vinted verification code without my own SIM card?
Open SMS For U, search for Vinted and pick a country. You get a real phone number, you enter it at Vinted (the phone verification step in your profile), and the code Vinted sends appears in your SMS For U account by itself. No SIM card is involved, and the Vinted number is not yours to keep.
How fast does the Vinted code arrive?
The Vinted code appears in your account within seconds of Vinted sending it. How long Vinted itself takes is up to Vinted and to the country the number comes from, which is why nothing here is worded as a promise.
What happens if no Vinted code arrives?
You do not pay for a Vinted number that brought no code. Cancel the order in the app and the payment is refunded as soon as the cancellation is confirmed. That is the whole rule, and it is why a failed Vinted attempt costs nothing: no code, no charge.
Which countries can I use for Vinted?
Vinted numbers come from the 50 markets listed on this page. Which of them can be picked for Vinted at this moment is on the country screen in the app: that list moves through the day, and a page in a search index cannot keep up with it.
Can I use the same number for Vinted again later?
A used Vinted number is not reserved for you indefinitely. Vinted normally does not come back to it after sign-up, but if you need lasting access to the Vinted account, use a number of your own.
