中文Temporary Phone Number for Line
Updated 4 min read
Running a Line official account, or simply staying reachable where the app is practically everyone's default messenger, is reason enough for an additional virtual number that stays separate from the one your contacts already have saved. With 5SIM, choose an available Line number, receive the SMS online for that signup, and check it right in your dashboard.
Receive SMS online for Line verification – Virtual Number for SMS Verification
Line launched in 2011 out of Naver and is now run by LY Corporation, the joint venture Naver formed with SoftBank. In Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, and Indonesia it isn't just another chat option; it's closer to the default. Roughly 195 million people open it in a typical month worldwide, and in Taiwan alone the count sits near 22 million, which covers close to the entire population.
The core of the app is still ordinary messaging done well: stickers, voice messages, photos and video shared in a chat, plus voice and video calls with end-to-end encryption covering both. Official accounts let a brand or a public figure message a wide following, each carrying a verified badge so followers know it's the real one.
2026 layered a few things on top. An August update to Line Today added a Social Feed that turns comments into anonymous posts, already past 500 million impressions. Line MINI Apps let people use a business's services right inside a chat without a separate download, and Taiwan alone counts more than 100 brands running one. A Line Premium subscription tier, offering cloud backup and transfers between iOS and Android, reached Taiwan in the first half of the year after already launching in Japan and Thailand.
Setting up an account ties it to a phone number confirmed by SMS, the standard way a platform this size checks that a new signup is a real person and not a duplicate. Someone opening a Line account to run an official channel, or simply to stay reachable in a country where Line is how everyone communicates, doesn't necessarily want that number to be the one already saved in everyone else's contacts.

Compare Line Numbers by Country, Operator and SMS Delivery Rate
Pick Line and a country on 5SIM, and the operators covering that pair appear with price, remaining quantity, and delivery rate attached to each row.
5SIM calculates this from completed orders, not from a guess. A 76% rate for Line through a given country and operator means 76 of the last 100 buyers received their SMS through that exact pairing. Between two similarly priced operators, that number is the more reliable signal.
