- Calls to Canada and the US cost $0.02/min pay-as-you-go, with the rate shown before you dial.
- Incoming calls ring in your browser tab or the iPhone app; incoming texts from US and Canadian senders land in your inbox.
- Activated instantly after payment — no documents, no proof of address, no SIM to ship.
- Monthly billing from $3.19, cancel any time from your account.

What People Use a Virtual Canada Number For
Canadians abroad
Keep a Canadian number for family, callbacks and appointments while you live outside Canada — it rings wherever you have internet.
Newcomers and students
Get a local Canadian number before you land, so landlords, employers and universities can reach you from day one.
Classifieds and marketplaces
A second number for Kijiji, Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist listings, so buyers never get your personal mobile.
Cross-border US–Canada
Pair a Canadian number with a US one, or call across the border at $0.02/min instead of paying carrier long-distance.
Business second line
A local Canadian presence for a small business or freelancer — answer in the browser, keep work calls separate from personal ones.
Privacy
Hand out a dedicated number for sign-ups, deliveries and dating apps, and drop it later without changing your real number.
Canada Virtual Number — FAQ
Everything to know before buying a Canadian phone number online.
It is a real Canadian phone number — a +1 number in a Canadian area code — that runs over the internet instead of a SIM card. Incoming calls ring in your browser tab or the TwinPhone iPhone app, incoming texts appear in your inbox, and you call out from the same screen at pay-as-you-go rates.
Texts from US and Canadian phone numbers and businesses, including most short-code verification codes. Texts sent from phones outside the US and Canada are blocked by the carrier and never arrive, and Telegram, WhatsApp, banks and most payment services refuse virtual numbers on purpose — do not buy the number for those codes. The number receives texts only. Outgoing messages are not supported.
Availability changes daily with carrier inventory. Numbers in 416 and 437 (Toronto), 289 and 905 (Greater Toronto), 519 (Southwestern Ontario), 613 and 343 (Ottawa), 604 and 778 (Vancouver) and 306 (Saskatchewan) have all been rented through TwinPhone recently; the number search shows exactly what is in stock the moment you look.
From $3.19 per month, billed monthly, with no contract. Calls to Canada and the US are $0.02/min; the rate to any other country is shown before you dial. Outbound calls come off a prepaid balance — the first top-up is $10 and it does not expire.
No. Canadian and US numbers activate instantly with an email address and a payment — there is no address verification, which is exactly why TwinPhone does not rent UK or EU numbers, where regulators require it.
Porting an existing number into TwinPhone is not offered on the consumer product — you rent a fresh number. You can cancel any time from your account and the number stops at the end of the paid month.
