CDKeys spent more than a decade as the place PC players went when a new release cost more than they wanted to pay. It sells digital game keys at a discount, you redeem them on the platform the game belongs to, and the catalogue runs past 15,000 titles across PC and console. In September 2025 the company changed its name to Loaded and moved from cdkeys.com to loaded.com, though the shop and the product behind it did not change.
The reasoning for the switch says something about how the industry aged. CDs stopped being relevant years ago, and a store named after them was carrying a word most of its customers had never used for anything physical. There was a second problem the company admitted to: plenty of shoppers assumed CDKeys was a generic description rather than a brand, which is a hard position to build loyalty from. Loaded was picked to cover the stock, the deals and the speed of delivery in one word.
Not everyone was convinced. Gaming forums pointed out that CDKeys at least told you what the shop sold, while Loaded could mean anything, and that the name already belongs to a gaming talent agency and several other businesses, which makes searching for it awkward. That argument is still running, and it is worth knowing if you go looking for the old address.
What matters in practice is the account. It holds your purchase history and the keys you have bought, which are worth real money and cannot be replaced if someone else gets to them first, so the store confirms a phone number by SMS at sign-up. The number afterwards carries order confirmations and a steady run of sale alerts, because discount stores live on telling you when a price drops. Take the confirmation on an additional number and that traffic keeps to its own line. It reaches you inside your 5SIM order, while your purchases and keys stay in the account.
How to buy a virtual phone number for CDKeys
Pick CDKeys from the service list on 5SIM. The countries currently holding numbers for it load next. Choose one and the operators serving that country and service pairing appear.
Every operator line carries price, available quantity and SMS delivery rate together. Weigh all three rather than sorting on price. Low stock behind a weak recent rate usually means a second attempt, which costs more than the cheaper line saved.
Your number lands in the active order as soon as you buy. Enter it in the CDKeys phone field, request the SMS, and the message arrives in that same order window. Orders stay live for roughly 15 to 20 minutes.
If nothing comes through, cancel the unused active order and the payment returns to your 5SIM balance right away. An unused order left to expire refunds on its own.

Pros of using temp numbers for CDKeys
An additional virtual number can be handy for CDKeys when you want a simple online option for a supported registration or verification flow.
Travel convenience: Online access can be useful when using the service while traveling. For CDKeys, it keeps the relevant registration separate from unrelated online services.
Flexible choice: You can review currently available countries and operators before choosing. It works well when your use of CDKeys is limited to a particular online flow.
Simple management: Incoming SMS remain available through the 5SIM dashboard during the active order. That can make a short CDKeys registration easier to organize.
Focused setup: A temporary number can be useful when setting up CDKeys for a particular gaming purpose. The approach provides a dedicated contact point for CDKeys without adding another physical SIM.
Community access: A separate number can keep gaming-related SMS distinct from other online activity. This can be convenient when you prefer service-specific messages to stay grouped separately.
