FAQ’s
Can I get SMS on my Wheaton virtual phone number?
Yes, your Wheaton FlyNumber can receive SMS — incoming texts are forwarded to your email for a small per-segment fee. You can also send personal, person-to-person texts to numbers outside the US — though delivery depends on the receiving carrier accepting texts from US numbers. Texting US numbers is coming soon and will run as A2P, the registered route US carriers require. Full list of SMS enabled numbers here.
Can I use my Wheaton 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.

Absolutely! With a FlyNumber, you can forward calls from your Wheaton business to any mobile or landline phone worldwide. So whether you're attending a conference in another state or scouting new suppliers abroad, you'll never miss a call from your customers back home in Wheaton.
How can I support local Wheaton community events with a virtual phone system?
You can utilize the FlyNumber call menu feature to manage calls efficiently during community events. For instance, set up a call menu that directs callers to different departments based on their needs—press 1 for event schedules, 2 for ticket bookings, etc. This way, you can manage high call volumes more effectively and keep the community informed and engaged.

This system helps manage call flow, especially during busy seasons, allowing you to focus on baking and not on missed calls.
