Use AliExpress without your phone number


AliExpress is available for users without their mobile phones; the procedure is quite simple. MoreMins can provide you a virtual phone number from $0.99. In this article we would like to guide you on how to buy goods on AliExpress without using your phone number.

AliExpress allows you to sign up with your e-mail account. You don't need your phone number when signing up; however, phone verification occurs on payment or during other verification checks and to provide shipping notifications. You can cover these steps with a virtual number, which does not involve your personal SIM card.

You can use AliExpress by first registering with your email, and then use the number to complete a purchase without your phone number at the payment or other stages. This approach will safeguard your phone number. Below we provide information about how to make the most of this shopping process.


Why register with your e-mail?

The e-mail option ensures the use of a private number during verification stages. Each code comes to the MoreMins account, which is owned by only you. For instance, if you need a US virtual phone number to shop on AliExpress or other websites, use an AliExpress virtual phone number to keep your personal number hidden. It will not be seen by AliExpress and anyone else. A number that you purchased from MoreMins will continue to be yours. You may be interested in a temporary number for SMS verification for other online platforms or an AliExpress-specific temporary virtual number.



What are the steps to buy on AliExpress without your phone number?

  1. Open your personal account by choosing a number for a country (e.g., US), then buy a plan, and activate the number by choosing its country code (this is the number that will be visible to AliExpress).
  2. Open the AliExpress website or application and select "Join." You may want to sign up for an account using your e-mail, as it will allow you to proceed without your phone number at this stage.
  3. Enter your e-mail address and set up a password, after that verify your e-mail via the link that was sent to your mail.
  4. At the cart stage, you should be ready for phone verification by selecting "Buy now." AliExpress will send a verification code by SMS to the number that was visible in the previous step, the number obtained from the service. Copy this code, enter it in AliExpress, and your purchase is completed!

You may ask "how to avoid a phone number for AliExpress," because if they try to verify by phone number in this section, you may want to select the appropriate option if there is one, or simply try again or with another country code. A number from MoreMins supports purchasing products through online retailers, where SMS verification occurs during shopping on AliExpress, Alibaba and other e-commerce platforms. Your personal number will remain protected behind a MoreMins virtual number.


Purchasing goods on AliExpress without your personal phone number

We are also offering a temporary virtual number for the verification on the website. MoreMins also covers numerous other platforms and countries, so check the catalogue for your needs. You can buy an AliExpress virtual number either on an annual basis or for one month or three months, depending on your needs. You don't have to carry two phones or add a second number to your existing SIM. One MoreMins virtual number works for multiple services, and your personal information remains anonymous.


Other common solutions (not recommended)

Some platforms for receiving SMS online are free but not recommended for use. These free services provide SMS for everyone, which could compromise your data. With these public numbers, anyone may steal your verification code. This means that your account could be hijacked by strangers before you even claim the code. So for AliExpress without using a phone number, a real virtual number for SMS verification makes more sense. It is much safer to use the MoreMins private virtual number, because no one else can view the messages. They serve to keep the platform's transactions safer for you.


Which of these are worth considering to buy on AliExpress?

To sum up, it is perfectly possible to shop on AliExpress without your personal phone number. AliExpress offers an option to sign up with your e-mail. After your initial signup, you will need to add a verified number for verification processes when checking out, for security checks, or when a carrier sends you a shipping notification. Your best option to do so safely without revealing your personal number is a MoreMins virtual number.
