FAQ’s

Can I get SMS on my Sumter virtual phone number?

Yes, your Sumter FlyNumber will come with SMS capabilities. The text message will be forwarded to the email on file free of charge. Full list of SMS enabled numbers here.

Can I use my Sumter virtual number for 2FA or other verification services?

This really depends on the company/service sending the SMS to the FlyNumber; it's up to them to actually send the text. We can't guarantee 2FA or short code SMS will work. Texts from regular mobile phones should work fine though.

This way, you can have different numbers for reservations, catering inquiries, and more, making it simple to keep organized and responsive.
