Receive SMS online for iQIYI verification – Virtual Number for SMS Verification
iQIYI is running two businesses at once and both are working. Viewership across its international platform rose 130 percent year on year in the first half of 2026, driven by what the company calls a long and short strategy: prestige drama series that run for 40 episodes, and micro dramas built from vertical instalments you finish at a bus stop. East Asian audiences take to the short format fastest, while Southeast Asia keeps demand high for the full-length productions.
Owning the work turned out to matter. Every one of the ten titles on its international drama chart in that half year was made in house, across historical epics, contemporary romance and coming-of-age stories. Pursuit of Jade topped every content category on the platform and has been the most-searched historical drama of its kind on Google worldwide since 2025, which is not the sort of position a licensing deal buys.
Getting there took unglamorous work. Subtitles run in 13 languages, dubbing is treated as production rather than an afterthought, and the company sends teams to fan events in the markets it cares about. In the second half of 2026 iQIYI International launches a bundle with Viu across Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines and Malaysia, its first alliance of that kind, pairing two catalogues in the region where both have the most to gain.
Registering confirms a phone number by SMS, and the account carries your watch list, viewing history and any subscription. Afterwards the number receives episode release alerts, renewal reminders and promotions, and a weekly drop schedule means the alerts keep coming. Take the confirmation on an additional number and it arrives inside your 5SIM order, while your list and history stay in iQIYI.
How to buy a virtual phone number for iQIYI
Choose iQIYI in the service list on 5SIM. The countries stocked for it right now load next. Pick one and the operators available for that country and service pairing appear.
Each operator line carries price, available quantity and SMS delivery rate side by side. Take all three together. A cheap line running low with a weak recent record often needs a second attempt, which costs more than the difference saved.
The number you buy waits in your active order. Enter it in the iQIYI phone field, request the SMS, and the message lands in that order window. Orders stay active for roughly 15 to 20 minutes.
If nothing turns up, cancel the unused active order and your payment returns to the 5SIM balance at once. An unused order left to run out refunds by itself.
