Do I get a SIM card or a plan?

Number Shack

Last Update 5 maanden geleden

Number Shack offers you the opportunity to acquire a new phone number without the hassle of obtaining a SIM card or switching plans. Our process is designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing carrier and service plan.


Upon purchasing a new phone number from Number Shack, you will receive a Port Out Certificate via email. This certificate serves as your authorization to initiate the porting process with your current carrier.

To initiate porting, contact your current carrier and inform them of your intention to port in a new phone number. Provide them with the details specified on the Port Out Certificate. Your current carrier will then commence the porting process.


Once the porting process is complete, your newly acquired phone number will replace your existing number. Your current service plan and contract with your provider will remain unchanged.


As long as you maintain an active service with your current provider, you will retain ownership of the phone number purchased from Number Shack. In the future, if you decide to switch providers, you can seamlessly port the number to a new carrier, whether it be a landline provider, cellular network, or VoIP service.


Key Points:

  • No SIM card or plan is required when purchasing a phone number from Number Shack.
  • The Port Out Certificate you receive serves as your authorization to initiate the porting process with your current carrier.
  • Porting the number will not affect your existing service plan or contract with your current provider.
  • You retain ownership of the phone number purchased from Number Shack, even if you switch providers in the future.
