Tired of limited texts? Get a custom number and enjoy 1,000-character messages, picture sharing, and more! A custom phone number provides you with a dedicated number that unlocks advanced texting capabilities, allowing you to go beyond basic SMS.

Want texting that's way more than just words? Get a custom phone number and unlock these awesome features:

  • Super Long Messages: Text up to 1,000 characters – say goodbye to short, choppy messages! πŸŽ‰ This extended character count is unlocked when you include at least one emoji in your text or send an MMS message (like a picture) using a Custom Phone Number. Please note that in addition to standard plan rates, a charge of $0.05 per number texted (or one extra credit for Pay As You Go users) will be applied when sending messages utilizing emojis or MMS with a Custom Phone Number.

  • *Picture Perfect: Send photos and other images directly in your texts.

  • *Multiple Pics: Share a whole album in one message! See a preview before you send.

  • Big Files Allowed: Send high-quality pics (up to 5MB each).

  • Oops, Nevermind: Delete messages before they're sent.

*Important Note on Pricing: When sending messages with these enhanced features using a custom number, please be aware that a charge of $0.05 per number texted will be applied at the point the message is confirmed for sending. For Pay As You Go users, this will utilize one extra credit per number texted in place of the $0.05 charge. This is in addition to your plan rates or credit usage for the base text message.
