FAQ’s
Can I get SMS on my Albion virtual phone number?
Yes, your Albion 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 Albion 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.
Can I use FlyNumber to manage calls for my business in Albotten?
Absolutely! Whether you're running a local farm store or a boutique in downtown Albion, FlyNumber allows you to manage multiple virtual phone numbers through a single account. Imagine customers calling a local Albion number and reaching your business, no matter where you physically are. Plus, you can customize call routing based on time or day, so you never miss those important local calls, especially during the Orchard Harvest Days.

Integrating FlyNumber with your current VoIP systems like Asterisk, 3CX, or FreePBX is a breeze. This flexibility is great for Albion businesses that require robust communication tools to stay connected, whether you're coordinating logistics for the annual Strawberry Festival or handling orders for your café on Main Street.
Does FlyNumber offer services that help with handling different types of calls, such as customer inquiries or sales for my Albion shop?
