Free number for Cabify: free vs paid

Free Cabify numbers exist, but they are shared: the number is published on a public page, every visitor reads the same inbox, and Cabify has usually seen it many times before. Below is when a free number is good enough, when it isn't, and the cheapest private number that works instead.

Before you try a free one

Why free Cabify numbers usually fail

Already registered

A public number is used by thousands of visitors. By the time you find it, it is almost always tied to someone else's Cabify account.

Refused as virtual

Numbers that receive codes for many different accounts get flagged, and popular free numbers are the first to be refused โ€” often the code is simply never sent.

Everyone sees your code

The inbox is a public web page. Whoever loads it after you can read the code and finish the signup โ€” or reset the account later.

No one to ask

Free inboxes have no support and no refund, because nothing was paid. If the code doesn't come, you have only lost the time.

The private alternative

Where a private Cabify number is available

These numbers are issued to one person at a time and only you see the code. Every row is a country with stock right now and a record of receiving Cabify codes, priced from live supply.

    Create an account

    An email address is enough. No phone number and no ID are asked for.

  2. 2
    Add a small balance

    Colombia costs $0.03 for Cabify today, so a minimal top-up covers it. Unused balance stays on your account.

    Pick a country, copy the number that appears, and request the code in Cabify.

  4. 4
    Watch the code arrive

    It shows up on your dashboard as it lands. If Cabify never sends it, the charge is returned to your balance by itself.

FAQ

Free Cabify number questions

Is there a free phone number that works for Cabify?

Occasionally, but you should not count on one. Public receive-SMS websites publish a handful of numbers for everyone to share, and Cabify sees the same numbers being used again and again. Most of them are already tied to an existing Cabify account or have been refused as virtual, so the code never arrives.

Does SMSPin give out free numbers for Cabify?

No. We don't run a public inbox, because a number anyone can read is a number anyone can use to take over the account you create with it. What we sell instead is the cheapest private option: a number only you can see, from $0.03, refunded automatically if Cabify never sends the code.

Why is a shared number risky for a Cabify account?

Every code sent to it is visible to every visitor of the page it is published on. Whoever reads your code can finish your signup, and later, whoever asks Cabify for a password reset on that number receives the reset code too. The account is only as private as the inbox.

When is a free public number good enough for Cabify?

When nothing about the account matters: testing that your own app sends an SMS, checking what a message looks like, or a throwaway sign-up you will never log back into. Never for anything holding money, messages, contacts or your identity.

What is the cheapest paid alternative for Cabify?

$0.03 on the cheapest country in the table on this page, out of 24 countries with Cabify numbers in stock right now. That buys one private number for one Cabify code; nothing is charged if the code doesn't arrive.

Do I need a subscription to get a private Cabify number?

No. You add a balance and pay per number. There is no monthly plan and nothing to cancel afterwards.

What if I need to receive Cabify codes again later?

Then neither a free number nor a one-code number is right โ€” rent one instead. A rented number stays assigned to you for the whole rental and receives every SMS sent to it, so logins and resets keep working.

Why does a private Cabify number cost more in some countries?

The price follows supply. Countries with plenty of numbers that Cabify accepts are cheap; countries with few are dearer. The price shown on each row is the one you are charged, because the table is read from live stock rather than typed in.
