How it works

Three steps to your own SMS gateway.

1. Enroll your phone

Install the app, verify by phone OTP, and pick the SIM. Each phone becomes a gateway device on your org.

2. Capture OTP codes

The app captures verification/OTP messages on your device — not your full inbox — and syncs them to your account.

3. Read by API, MCP, or Chrome

Fetch codes from scripts and agents — or let the Chrome extension fill the website OTP field automatically.

Chrome

OTP Autofill for Chrome

When a website texts a code to your BusySMS number, the extension fills the field and presses Enter. The Android app still does the capture — Chrome never reads SMS.

Pricing

$5 per verified number / month

Run the app on phones you own and read their verification codes by Chrome autofill, REST API, or MCP. One subscription covers your whole account: $5 per verified phone number, so the bill follows the numbers you actually have. Subscribe in the app or on the web — same account, same card, same total. The first 7 days are free.

Subscription

$5/ verified number / month

7-day free trial · Billed monthly · cancel anytime

  • One subscription per account — add a number and the bill goes up by $5, remove one and it goes down.
  • Subscribe from the app or the dashboard; both open the same Stripe checkout for the same account.
  • Your subscription follows your account, not a handset — sign in on another phone and it is covered.
  • Chrome autofill fills the code into the site's box; REST API & MCP read it from your scripts.
  • Gateway on or off does not change the bill. Remove a number to stop billing it.

Your phones, your codes

Run the app on devices you own and read their OTP codes on demand — no shared pools, no rentals.

Chrome autofill

The extension fills the verification code into the site's box and presses Enter, so you never read digits off a phone screen again.

API & MCP access

List devices, pull captured OTPs, or long-poll for the latest code straight from your scripts and agents.

Simple flat pricing

$5 per verified number a month, 7-day free trial. One subscription for the whole account, and the bill follows the numbers you actually have.

Trust & safety

Built for your own gateway

Your own devices only

You only ever read codes from phones you enrolled. No shared pools, no rentals, no access to anyone else's device.

Codes, not your whole inbox

The app captures verification/OTP messages only — never a dump of your personal chats.

Phone OTP + scoped API keys

Account tied to your number. API keys resolve to your org and are scoped to your own devices.

FAQ

Common questions

How much does BusySMS cost?

$5 per verified phone number per month, billed monthly, with a 7-day free trial on every account. One subscription covers your whole account: add a number and the bill goes up by $5, remove one and it goes down.

Does my subscription work on my other phone?

Yes. The subscription belongs to your BusySMS account, not to one handset. Install the app on another phone, sign in to the same account, and it is covered — no second subscription.

What counts as a “verified number”?

A phone number you verified in the app — on this phone or another you signed in on. Dual-SIM with both numbers verified is two. Gateway on or off does not change the bill; remove a number from the dashboard to stop billing it.

How do I read my codes?

Three ways. The Chrome extension fills the code into the site's OTP box for you and presses Enter. The REST API and MCP let your scripts and agents list devices, fetch captured OTP messages, or long-poll for the latest code — all scoped to your own devices with your API key.

What does the Chrome extension do?

It watches the page for a verification-code field, and when your BusySMS phone receives the code it types it in and submits — Apple's six boxes, Google, banks, your own dashboards. No copying digits off a screen.

Do you read all my personal texts?

No. The app only captures verification/OTP messages from your own devices — never your full personal inbox. This is unchanged from before.

Can I add teammates?

Yes. Dashboard → Invites, enter their phone. They join when they sign in with that number; their devices bill under your subscription. Be deliberate about it: everyone on an account shares one code inbox, so a member with an API key can read verification codes from every phone on it, including yours.

I stopped using one of my phones — how do I stop paying for it?

Dashboard → Devices → Remove, on that number. The bill drops by $5 immediately and your other numbers keep working. Don't use Cancel in the payment portal for this — that ends the whole subscription, every number with it.

How do I manage or cancel billing?

“Manage billing” on your dashboard — or in the Android app — opens the Stripe portal, where you can change the card, download invoices, or cancel. Cancel anytime. If you subscribed through Google Play before we moved to card billing, that one is still managed in Google Play subscriptions.
