LegalTerms of service
Last updated June 2026
1Welcome to SMSAPE
These Terms of Service explain the rules for using SMSAPE, including smsape.com and all services available through the platform.
By creating an account, adding funds, renting a number, or receiving SMS messages through our system, you agree to these Terms.
If you don't agree with them, please don't use the Service.
2Changes To These Terms
Sometimes things change.
We may update these Terms when:
- New features are added
- Security measures change
- Providers update their requirements
- Laws or regulations require adjustments
When an update is made, the revised version will appear on this page together with a new “Last Updated” date.
Continued use of SMSAPE means you accept the latest version.
3Who Can Use SMSAPE
SMSAPE is intended for adults only.
By using the Service, you confirm that:
- You are at least 18 years old (or older if local law requires it)
- You can legally enter into agreements in your country or region
- The use of virtual numbers is permitted where you live
If any of these statements are not true, you must not create or use an account.
4What SMSAPE Does
Simply put, we provide temporary virtual phone numbers that can receive SMS messages.
Most customers use them to receive verification codes when registering or signing into online platforms.
That's the service.
What We Can't Control
Not every platform treats virtual numbers the same way.
A number that works perfectly today may be rejected tomorrow because:
- A website changes its policies
- A carrier changes routing rules
- Fraud filters become stricter
- A platform blocks virtual numbers entirely
Those decisions are made by third parties, not by SMSAPE.
5Acceptable Use
Use the Service responsibly.
Don't use SMSAPE for:
- Fraud or deceptive activity
- Spam campaigns
- Automated mass registrations
- Harassment or impersonation
- Illegal activities of any kind
- Bypassing restrictions that you are not authorized to bypass
You are responsible for how the numbers you rent are used.
If we believe an account is being used in violation of these rules, access may be restricted immediately and without advance notice.
6Financial Services Are Prohibited
SMSAPE numbers may not be used for financial institutions or financial products.
This includes, but is not limited to:
- Banks
- Credit card providers
- Lending services
- Digital wallets
- Payment processors
- Cryptocurrency exchanges
- Brokerage platforms
- Investment services
Examples include services such as PayPal, Wise, Stripe, Binance, Coinbase, Kraken and similar platforms.
Attempts to use SMSAPE numbers for these services may result in permanent account suspension.
7Your Account, Your Responsibility
Keep your login credentials secure.
Anything that happens through your account is considered your responsibility, including:
- Number purchases
- Activations
- Balance usage
- Violations of these Terms
If you suspect unauthorized access, contact support immediately.
8Payments
Funds can be added using supported payment methods available on the platform.
Payments are processed by third-party providers.
As a result:
- Payment processing times may vary
- External fees may apply
- Provider-specific rules may apply
By completing a payment, you also agree to the policies of the payment provider involved in the transaction.
9Balance & Credits
When an activation does not receive an SMS under eligible conditions, the amount is usually returned to your SMSAPE balance as account credit.
Credits:
- Remain attached to the account that received them
- Cannot be transferred to another user
- Cannot be exchanged or sold
- Have no value outside SMSAPE
Refund eligibility is governed by our Payment & Refund Policy.
10Service Availability
We work hard to keep the platform online and stable.
That said, no online service is available 100% of the time.
Occasionally there may be:
- Maintenance periods
- Carrier-related issues
- Network interruptions
- Provider outages
Because many parts of SMS delivery depend on external telecom networks, uninterrupted service cannot be guaranteed.
11Third-Party Platforms
SMSAPE provides virtual numbers.
We do not control the platforms where those numbers are used.
If a website, app, or service decides to:
- Reject a number
- Flag an account
- Require additional verification
- Suspend a user account
that decision belongs entirely to that platform.
SMSAPE is not responsible for actions taken by third parties.
12Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, SMSAPE will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from the use of the Service.
If a claim is successfully made against SMSAPE, our maximum liability will not exceed the amount paid for the specific activation involved in that claim.
13Indemnification
If your actions cause legal claims, damages, costs, or losses involving SMSAPE, you agree to be responsible for those consequences.
This includes violations of these Terms, unlawful activity, or misuse of the Service through your account.
14Intellectual Property
The SMSAPE platform, website design, software, branding, logos, content, and related materials remain our property or the property of our licensors.
Without written permission, you may not:
- Copy the platform
- Resell access
- Reverse engineer the software
- Redistribute proprietary content
- Use our branding as your own
15Account Suspension & Termination
You may stop using SMSAPE at any time.
We may suspend or permanently terminate accounts if we detect:
- Fraud
- Abuse
- Security threats
- Chargeback abuse
- Regulatory concerns
- Violations of these Terms
Some restrictions may be applied automatically to protect the platform and other users.
16Restricted Regions
SMSAPE may not be available in countries, regions, or jurisdictions where its operation would violate applicable laws or sanctions.
Access may be limited, blocked, or restricted at our discretion when necessary.
17Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws applicable to the jurisdiction where SMSAPE operates.
Before starting formal legal proceedings, both parties agree to make reasonable efforts to resolve disputes through direct communication.
If a resolution cannot be reached, disputes may be brought before the appropriate courts of that jurisdiction.
