Getting Short code SMS texts to US VoIP number from Panama

Getting Short code SMS texts to US VoIP number from Panama - Black Monitor Showing Texts

I am a non-techie, and I can't fix this myself. I use Amazon pharmacy for getting my prescriptions and they are using short texts to verify my phone number, which, of course, isn't working. Are there companies that do VOIP or some other protocol that would let me have a US number that DOES register for short texts?



Best Answer

I personally use Google Voice, it works with >95% of the services I've tried, and is free. However you do need a US phone number in addition to Google Voice.

Another solution is Google Fi, but it's not free.
