Temporary India Number for Instagram OTP

Instagram can ask you to confirm a mobile number with a 6-digit code sent by SMS. If you want a Indian number for this, SMSPing can give you a +91 number for the "Instagram" service: choose India, pick an operator with stock, place the order, enter the number in Instagram and the SMS shows up in your own SMSPing order. Instagram decides whether it accepts the number. Codes aren't guaranteed. If an order is canceled or times out with no SMS, the charge is returned to your SMSPing balance, once per order; the balance is not withdrawable.

What Instagram uses your phone number for

Instagram's help page on why it asks for your email or phone number says the number helps you log in, and that if you forget your password you'll need an updated mobile number or email address to reset it. If you turn on SMS two-factor authentication, Instagram texts a code each time someone logs in from a device it doesn't recognise. A temporary number can't receive those later codes, so keep an e-mail address on the account and don't pick SMS as your two-factor method with this number.

This page is about getting the code on a Indian number. For other countries, see the Instagram verification page. There is also an Instagram page in Chinese.

How to receive the Instagram code on an India number

Sign in to SMSPing and top up. Top up your account with USDT (TRC20/ERC20/BEP20, recommended); TRX, ETH and BNB are also accepted. Minimum top-up $10.
Search for the service "Instagram".
Choose India (+91) and look at the operators that have stock and their prices.
Place the order. The price is deducted from your balance when you order, and you get the number.
In Instagram, choose India (+91), enter the number exactly as shown in your order and request the code.
Go back to your SMSPing order and wait for the SMS (if it arrives), then enter the code in Instagram.

Each number is ordered for the selected service only, so don't use a Instagram order for another app.

Writing a +91 number correctly

Indian mobile numbers are 10 digits. In international format they are written +91 followed by those 10 digits.

Copy the number from your order exactly instead of retyping it.
If the app already shows +91 or "India", enter only the 10 digits. Don't add 91 again.
If the field wants the full international number, use +91 followed by the digits shown in your order.

Price and stock for Instagram numbers in India

At the snapshot (2026-11-12 05:43 UTC+8), 2 operators had Instagram numbers for India in stock, from $0.19 to $0.26 per number. Prices and stock change during the day and are checked again when you order; the price shown before you confirm is the one that applies. If no operator has stock when you look, try again later or choose another country on the Instagram page.

Before you use a temporary number for Instagram

Instagram's rules come first. Instagram decides which numbers it accepts, so a number offered for the "Instagram" service can still be refused. Instagram uses your phone number for password resets and security codes, which a temporary number can't receive after the order ends.
Numbers are temporary. A number only receives SMS while your order is active. SMSPing numbers receive SMS only, not calls, so later login or security codes can't reach it after the order ends. For an account you want to keep, add an e-mail or another sign-in method, or use a number you will keep.
Numbers may have been used before. If Instagram says the number is already in use or can't be used, cancel the order. Don't try to get around the restriction.
No SMS? The charge goes back to your balance. While waiting you can request cancellation. If an order is canceled or times out with no SMS, the charge is returned to your SMSPing balance, once per order; the balance is not withdrawable. Orders that already received an SMS can't be canceled. See pricing and balance rules.
Payment. Top up your account with USDT (TRC20/ERC20/BEP20, recommended); TRX, ETH and BNB are also accepted. Minimum top-up $10.

Instagram code not arriving?

Check that the country is India (+91) and the digits match your order exactly, wait a little, then request the code again. If Instagram shows an error about the number, or nothing arrives, cancel the order or let it time out. Don't keep switching numbers to get around a block. More steps are in the verification code troubleshooting guide and the SMS code not received checker.

FAQ

Can I use a Indian virtual number for Instagram?

We did not find an Instagram help page that bans virtual numbers, but Instagram decides which numbers it accepts. Codes aren't guaranteed.

Can I reset my Instagram password with this number later?

No. The number only receives SMS while your order is active. Instagram says you need an updated mobile number or email address to reset a forgotten password, so keep an e-mail on the account.

Should I use this number for Instagram two-factor codes?

No. Instagram sends a two-factor code by SMS each time you log in from an unrecognised device, and a temporary number can't receive it later. Use an authentication app or a number you keep.

What if the Instagram code never arrives?

Request cancellation while the order is waiting. If an order is canceled or times out with no SMS, the charge is returned to your SMSPing balance, once per order; the balance is not withdrawable.

How do I pay?

Top up your account with USDT (TRC20/ERC20/BEP20, recommended); TRX, ETH and BNB are also accepted. Minimum top-up $10.
