Free phone number for your vacation
Purchase prepaid data from aloSIM
Get a free phone number from Hushed
Using your regular phone number on vacation is expensive …
The second you’re out of the country, you’re going to start paying a lot more for each call and text because your phone has to ‘roam.’
Even if you toggle off Data Roaming, a single phone call or text could trigger a high daily usage rate from your carrier.
You can save money by toggling off your primary SIM when you travel and using an eSIM for data. But what about calling and texting?
… so use a free phone number instead!
Most prepaid data packages from aloSIM now come with a FREE phone number from our sister app, Hushed.
Just follow the instructions below to claim your free phone number from Hushed. It takes less than two minutes.
Then you can call and text on vacation with an international phone number, and never worry about charges showing up on your next phone bill.
