Quick answer

Should I give my real phone number to a dating match?

It’s worth waiting. A real phone number can be linked to your name, social profiles and messaging apps. A second number lets you call and text a match from an app on your iPhone, and you can stop using it or change it without touching your personal number. Plans start at $2.99 a week.

Get to know them before they get your number.

A little distance early on makes meeting new people easier to enjoy.

  • Keep your personal details private

    Without a second number: A real phone number can lead back to your full name, social profiles and messaging apps.

    With a second number: Matches get a number that isn’t your personal line, so they only learn what you choose to share.

  • Leave the app without losing the chat

    Without a second number: Unmatch by mistake or pause your profile, and the conversation can disappear with it.

    With a second number: Move to calls and texts on your second number and keep talking outside the app.

  • Walk away cleanly

    Without a second number: If a date doesn’t go well, they still have your real number.

    With a second number: Stop replying on your second number, or change it in the app. Your personal number never changes.

Questions

Dating questions, answered.

Straight answers before you choose your number.

Is it safe to give my phone number on a dating app?

Your real number can reveal more than you expect, because it’s often linked to your name, social profiles and messaging apps. Sharing a second number keeps your personal line private while you get to know someone.

Before you share your number on a dating app

Will my match know it’s a second number?

No. It’s a real US & Canada (+1) number, and the app never tells your contacts you’re using it. They see that number only when you call or text.

Can I use it to sign up for a dating app?

Many apps accept a second number for sign-up codes, but some block virtual (VoIP) numbers. Check the app’s rules first, and use your main number if it’s required.

Verification compatibility guide

What if someone won’t stop contacting me?

Stop replying and, if you need to, change your second number in the app for a one-time fee. Your personal number doesn’t change. If you ever feel unsafe, contact your local authorities.

Is my second number anonymous?

No. It keeps your personal number private from matches, but it isn’t anonymous: accounts go through profile verification to prevent fraud, and we may share information in response to legal requests.

Privacy Policy

Can I keep separate numbers for dating and work?

Yes. You can have up to 3 numbers on one account. Your first number comes with your plan, and a second or third number is an add-on.
