This app replaces conventional telephone communication with an interface that provides communication, functionality and comfort. Having multiple WhatsApp accounts is beneficial in many ways, but for each new account you will need an additional phone number.<\/p>\n<p>WhatsApp uses phone data such as numbers and contacts to identify you as a real user and to register you. The caller search function also works by phone number. So, to avoid confusion, you can only connect one phone number to one active profile. Making more WhatsApp accounts is advantageous, but requires special effort.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"purpose_of_phone_numbers_for_whatsapp_activation\"><\/span>Purpose of Phone Numbers for WhatsApp activation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Phone numbers on WhatsApp bear a connectivity purpose. Users find friends and colleagues through phone info, not mail or personal details. It\u2019s comfortable, allowing app users to add regular contacts directly to WhatsApp. The latter is a step up from regular texting apps, offering superior functionality and numerous new features. Unfortunately, registering for WhatsApp without phone number is impossible. It\u2019s a mandatory step, steeped in core features and security concerns. The second reason why WhatsApp demands personal info is for verification. It\u2019s an old way of spotting fake accounts, with mediocre results.<\/p>\n<p>Also, most online platforms use phone numbers for verification. During the registration process, a text message will be sent to the phone number as a security layer. The message will contain a so-called &#8220;confirmation code&#8221; that must be entered to complete the registration. It\u2019s another reason why you need a number to enter WhatsApp.<\/p>\n<p>A single person can register using two different numbers, with two accounts on two phones. Having multiple WhatsApp accounts is beneficial in numerous ways, but getting a new SIM card for it is wasteful. Virtual numbers for SMS \u2014 a type of virtual telephony that is designed to receive text messages online, are better suited for this purpose.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13249 \" src=\"https:\/\/sms-man.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/How-to-activate-WhatsApp.webp\" alt=\"How to activate WhatsApp\" width=\"948\" height=\"474\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why_virtual_numbers?\"><\/span>Why Virtual Numbers?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Virtual numbers are ordinary working telephone numbers that are only available online. It\u2019s safe and effective at providing users with mechanisms necessary to receive SMS messages without buying a new SIM card. This means that users must have an additional phone to create a new account. But agree that buying a new SIM card for this endeavor is too expensive. Besides, you&#8217;ll only need it the first time you log into WhatsApp. A more efficient and cost-effective option would be to use the virtual option. This will save you money and allow you to have multiple WhatsApp accounts with the same effect.<\/p>\n<p>The advantage of this method over the regular way of buying a SIM card is immense for new phone users. WhatsApp account based on a virtual number is more effective for calling and texting than a base phone with a SIM card, meaning the latter is redundant. A virtual number is also cheaper than a card, and there\u2019s no difference for WhatsApp functionally. Rented numbers enable you to receive messages and act as the main elements of your account, i.e. they will be displayed during calls and used to identify your account. This means that a purchased virtual number gives you the same facilities as a physical SIM, the difference is cost (virtual ones are often cheaper) and comfort (it\u2019s faster).<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"getting_a_virtual_number_using_sms-man\"><\/span>Getting a Virtual Number using SMS-man<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can rent phone numbers online at <a href=\"https:\/\/sms-man.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">SMS-Man<\/a>.

Use the purchased number to receive verification SMS and for registration.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>SMS-Man lets buyers choose the country of the phone\u2019s origin, each country costing differently. Users can see the amount of options available for the exact requested deal, adjusting the tariff respectively. The country plays little role in WhatsApp functionality, letting buyers choose based on cost.<\/p>\n<p>Renting a phone number for WhatsApp for long periods of time is an ideal option, a one-time message doesn\u2019t fulfill the purpose. If the rent expires soon and extending it is not an option, try purchasing a new number and moving the WhatsApp account there (available in settings) before the rent ends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Table of Contents: Purpose of Phone Numbers for WhatsApp activationWhy Virtual Numbers?Getting a Virtual Number using SMS-man WhatsApp is a major messaging platform founded in&hellip;<\/p>\n<div class='heateorSssClear'><\/div><div  class='heateor_sss_sharing_container heateor_sss_horizontal_sharing' heateor-sss-data-href='https:\/\/sms-man.com\/blog\/how-to-create-a-2nd-whatsapp-account-using-virtual-numbers\/'><div class='heateor_sss_sharing_title' style=\"font-weight:bold\" ><\/div><ul class=\"heateor_sss_sharing_ul\"><li class=\"heateorSssSharingRound\"><i style=\"width:80px;height:25px;border-radius:5px;\" alt=\"Facebook\" Title=\"Facebook\" class=\"heateorSssSharing heateorSssFacebookBackground\" onclick='heateorSssPopup(\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsms-man.com%2Fblog%2Fhow-to-create-a-2nd-whatsapp-account-using-virtual-numbers%2F\")'><ss style=\"display:block;\" class=\"heateorSssSharingSvg heateorSssFacebookSvg\"><\/ss><\/i><\/li><li class=\"heateorSssSharingRound\"><i style=\"width:80px;height:25px;border-radius:5px;\" alt=\"Twitter\" Title=\"Twitter\" class=\"heateorSssSharing heateorSssTwitterBackground\" onclick='heateorSssPopup(\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=smsmantweets&text=How%20to%20Create%20a%202nd%20WhatsApp%20Account%20Using%20Virtual%20Numbers&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsms-man.com%2Fblog%2Fhow-to-create-a-2nd-whatsapp-account-using-virtual-numbers%2F\")'><ss style=\"display:block;\" class=\"heateorSssSharingSvg heateorSssTwitterSvg\"><\/ss><\/i><\/li><li class=\"heateorSssSharingRound\"><i style=\"width:80px;height:25px;border-radius:5px;\" alt=\"Telegram\" Title=\"Telegram\" class=\"heateorSssSharing heateorSssTelegramBackground\" onclick='heateorSssPopup(\"https:\/\/telegram.me\/share\/url?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsms-man.com%2Fblog%2Fhow-to-create-a-2nd-whatsapp-account-using-virtual-numbers%2F&text=How%20to%20Create%20a%202nd%20WhatsApp%20Account%20Using%20Virtual%20Numbers\")'><ss style=\"display:block;\" class=\"heateorSssSharingSvg heateorSssTelegramSvg\"><\/ss><\/i><\/li><li class=\"heateorSssSharingRound\"><i style=\"width:80px;height:25px;border-radius:5px;\" alt=\"Reddit\" Title=\"Reddit\" class=\"heateorSssSharing heateorSssRedditBackground\" onclick='heateorSssPopup(\"http:\/\/reddit.com\/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsms-man.com%2Fblog%2Fhow-to-create-a-2nd-whatsapp-account-using-virtual-numbers%2F&title=How%20to%20Create%20a%202nd%20WhatsApp%20Account%20Using%20Virtual%20Numbers\")'><ss style=\"display:block;\" class=\"heateorSssSharingSvg heateorSssRedditSvg\"><\/ss><\/i><\/li><li class=\"heateorSssSharingRound\"><i style=\"width:80px;height:25px;border-radius:5px;\" alt=\"Pinterest\" Title=\"Pinterest\" class=\"heateorSssSharing heateorSssPinterestBackground\" onclick=\"javascript:void( (function() {var e=document.createElement('script' );e.setAttribute('type','text\/javascript' );e.setAttribute('charset','UTF-8' );e.setAttribute('src','\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/js\/pinmarklet.js?r='+Math.random()*99999999);document.body.appendChild(e)})());\"><ss style=\"display:block;\" class=\"heateorSssSharingSvg heateorSssPinterestSvg\"><\/ss><\/i><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"heateorSssClear\"><\/div><\/div><div class='heateorSssClear'><\/div>","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":13247,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Create 2 WhatsApp Account Using Virtual Numbers - SMS-Man Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"2 WhatsApp account can be very beneficial, but buying a new SIM specifically to create a new account is bothersome.
