When it comes to fake numbers that work for Tinder, and fake numbers that don’t work for Tinder it’s all about the uniqueness of those numbers.
If the number is unique and has never been used before on Tinder, then you’ll be clear to go. All you have to do is find the right provider of those fake numbers.
Google Voice is one of those providers. Even though it’s not specifically designed to bypass the Tinder code verification, you can use Google Voice for Tinder.
The fact that you’re here either means you want to get unbanned from Tinder or you simply don’t want to use your phone number.
I’ve got you.
First, I need to discuss a few things that you need to be aware of. Because it is not as easy as you think but I’ll make it easy for you.
Google Voice can give you a second phone number that you can use for calls, texts, and voicemails – That’s easy to understand, right?
To get a Google Voice number requires a phone number that is located in the U.S, or a few other European states; because, as we know, Google Voice isn’t available in all countries.
Google Voice recycles phone numbers, they can be claimed, expired, and reclaimed after 45 days.
This means you can receive a phone number that has been used by someone else. And god knows what the number has been used for.
But since it’s a public service and it’s free to use we cannot complain about it.
Anyway, we still got a phone number that we can use on tinder to bypass the verification. So that’s perfect!
How to use a Google Voice number for Tinder?

You can use a Google Voice number for Tinder. It’s easily done and a free number for Tinder.
Keep in mind that you can only use this service if you live in the U.S., or if you’re a customer of Google Works, in the Netherlands, Canada, France, Portugal, Denmark, Spain, the UK, Sweden, and Switzerland.
Let’s get into the steps you need to take to create your Google Voice account for Tinder verification:
- Go to voice.google.com, or download Google Voice on your device.
- Click/tap “For Personal Use”.
- Link your phone number.*
- Search for available numbers in your area and redeem the number.
*You can use your number. It won't matter if your phone number is banned on Tinder or not because this is for Google Voice only.
So now we do have a unique fresh phone number that has never been used on Tinder.
Things you need to do before using a Google Voice number for Tinder are:
– Uninstall Tinder.
– Change your Apple ID.
– Use a VPN to change the IP address.
The final step is creating your new Tinder account, with your unique Google Voice phone number.
Does Google Voice work for Tinder?
You cannot bypass Tinder verification or a Tinder ban with a Google Voice number because the service is public and anyone can access it.
Due to this, Tinder won’t accept these already-used phone numbers for registering a new account.
To be honest, Tinder is right because these Voice phone numbers we get have always been used by someone else for their needs.
If you ever signed up with a Google Voice number on Tinder, stick to that number because if you let go, then your account can be hijacked.
What are some other Burner numbers/Texting apps that work with Tinder?
Texting apps that work with Tinder, but also burner numbers that work with Tinder besides Google e Voice, are plentiful. They have pros and cons, some are better, and some are at the same level as Google Voice numbers.
Google Voice as an option isn’t as bad, considering that it’s free of charge. However, though… It’s not the best option. Hence, the need for other apps.
Since Tinder can ban you if you use an already misused phone number to create an account, Google Voice, once again, might not be the best option.
We recommend using the Tinderophone as its best option out there, which does the job well and gives you a newbie boost while creating.
Besides a Google Voice number, you’ll have a lot of other options, such as burner numbers and texting numbers:
Burner numbers for your Tinder account verification
A burner number is a number used temporarily for various uses, costing a lot less money than a regular number. Once the user’s purpose is fulfilled with the burner number, the user can discard it right away.
Some burner numbers are specifically designed to work for Tinder, while others are for multiple purposes.
Burner number providers to help you out with your new Tinder account–Burner apps that can work for your Tinder account:
1. Tinderophone (charges). Tinderophone is a burner number provider, designed exclusively for Tinder users having trouble creating accounts with their phone numbers.
It’s one number at a time for Tinder, and it’s the same way with Tinderophone: one number at a time.
Numbers are unused before, ensuring the users a guaranteed phone number verification for their new Tinder account.
2. Phoner (free of charge). Phoner is a free app available for Apple and Android users.
Phoner allows you to text and call with a second phone number so that you can be dating with peace of mind.
You can easily use Phoner to create a Tinder account safely and even continue to use the same Phoner number to text and call your date outside of Tinder.
The app provides its users with a second phone number (which they can choose themselves) through which they can make phone calls or text anyone anywhere.
You can pick international phone numbers as well, which is a great plus if you’re trying to match your location to your phone number.
This an app designed for general purposes, however, it might work for Tinder as well!
3. PingMe (starting from free, to charges depending on usage). It’s a free burner number that can be used for Tinder.
PingMe is not designed specifically for Tinder SMS verification, however, it can be used for that purpose. This means, that it can work for Tinder.
You get a disposable number (US or Canadian) which you can use for creating your Tinder account. While receiving messages on the disposable number you get is free, sending messages and receiving/initiating calls is charged.
4. Hushed (charges). With Hushed you get to send messages and make phone calls very similar to a regular phone number.
However, it’s not entirely clear whether they provide the same numbers, or they provide unique ones for each customer. Despite that, Hushed can work for Tinder, but with a slight risk of not working.
They’re not free of charge, which makes it a little bit of a risky step to take for your Tinder account due to the uncertainty of the uniqueness of the number you get.
5. Talkatone (free of charge). The services that come with the burner phone are free of charge which makes it widely used.
It’s pretty convenient because it is free, and you can easily discard the number once you’re done with it.
Their services being widely used is a positive thing, however, it still represents a little bit of risk for the number repetition (i.e. lack of unique numbers).
Texting apps/sites for your Tinder account verification
Texting apps or sites are apps or sites that provide you with a temporary number that you can use to message. Such providers can charge you a certain amount, or allow you to use them free of charge.
Some texting apps are suitable for Tinder as well, and some others simply aren’t due to their way of working.
Texting apps essentially provide you with fake numbers which you can use for multiple purposes. In this case, we’re looking for texting apps that work for Tinder.
Texting apps/sites that can be useful for your new Tinder account–Text apps you can use for Tinder:
1. Textnow (free of charge). This is a good opportunity for those who can’t afford a second phone number. It’s completely free, and you can use it for other purposes besides Tinder.
You can use Textnow for Tinder, and it can often work for you to open a new account on Tinder.
It’s also great for those who plan to keep the number for more than just a part of a verification process for Tinder.
Like most free-of-charge apps and sites, this one too is exposed to the risk of repetition of numbers.
The numbers may not be unique, which can represent difficulties when it comes to passing the phone verification process on Tinder.
That can make a Textnow number a bit problematic to bypass the Tinder phone verification code. It’s free, so it’s worth a shot!
2. Textfree (free of charge). The app is free, and the numbers you get from the app are free as well. You get to choose what prefix of the number you get, and you get a unique number.
Once you get the number, you get to keep it, but also, you can simply discard it once you’ve reached the goal for your Tinder account.
3. Textplus (free of charge, to charge depending on the services you use). Text plus provide you with a phone number that you can use for free in the US or Canada, but you have to pay if you’re not in those countries.
The numbers aren’t unique, but it’s worth a try if you’re planning to use the number in the US or Canada. You can keep it for other purposes besides your Tinder account.
4. Textme (free of charge). This phone number provider is exclusive to users in the US and Canada, but their services can reach worldwide numbers.
If you live elsewhere, you won’t be able to use it. Since you’re needing it for your Tinder account, you won’t be able to verify it.
However, if you live in the US or Canada then it’s worth a shot, even though you’re not looking for ways to make free phone calls or send text messages around the world, you have that option.
Be careful though. The numbers they provide might not be unique.
Burner numbers | Texting apps/sites |
1. Tinderophone | 1. Textnow |
2. Pingme | 2. Textfree |
3. Hushed | 3. Textplus |
4. Talkatone | 4. Textme |
Facts & thoughts: Is Google Voice worth trying?
After seeing and understanding how Google Voice works with a Tinder account, we can now compare it to other apps that provide you with burner numbers, or text numbers.
Besides Google Voice, I chose 4 other apps to compare. I chose them due to their suitability for opening a Tinder account or even trespassing a Tinder ban, and a Tinder verification code.
Here’s what I found:
My Top 5 Fake Number Services to work for Tinder | Pros | Cons |
Google Voice | – Free of charge – Easy to use | – Lack of uniqueness of the numbers |
Tinderophone | – Exclusively designed to trespass Tinder verification – Unique numbers | – Charges money |
Textfree | – It’s free – A unique number | – Limited to several countries |
Hushed | – Can be used for Tinder | – Charges money |
Textnow | – Free of charge- Easy to access | – Lack of uniqueness of the numbers |
Now, concluding…
Google Voice is free, indeed. Is it worth trying? Well, not as much if we compare it to other apps that offer unique numbers.
A unique and unused number is the key for a fake number to be successful for Tinder.
Choose what suits you best, and keep in mind, that you don’t lose money but you lose time trying out the wrong apps/sites.
Best of luck,
Liam
google number no longer works I spent two days trying to figure out why Icouldnt log in.
Hushed no longer works either
This article is poorly researched. Tinder doesn’t allow numbers from IP companies. I use Hushed and Google phone and my many attempts failed. Yes, I changed my IP.
Hi Eric,
That’s not related to IP, if you got many attempts failed that means it’s a virtual number. Because Virtual numbers aren’t accepted by apps and can be detected easily.
But if the app gives real numbers, then you will be OK. Some of the apps give real numbers we didn’t test them, but we did test a few of them and they were good.
Thank you.
This is a great guide! I’ve been struggling with trying to find a Tinder verification number that actually works, and this guide has helped me a lot.
