The courier's text, away from your personal number.
DoorDash, Uber Eats, Instacart and Grubhub tie your account to a phone number and use it for sign-in codes and courier messages. Give them a U.S. mobile number that works in your browser.
Why delivery apps want a mobile number
The number on a delivery account does two jobs. It receives the codes that confirm it's really you signing in, and it's how a driver or shopper reaches you about a sold-out item, a gate code or an apartment they can't find. These apps generally expect a U.S. mobile line, and many turn VoIP numbers away. TwinNumber numbers are registered as mobile.
Tips
- 01
Turn on notifications
Courier messages are time-sensitive. Turn on browser notifications or forward calls to your phone, so a "Which door?" text doesn't sit unread while your food gets cold.
- 02
Visiting the U.S.?
If you're in the country for a few weeks on your home SIM, the app can still reach you on a local number, over hotel Wi-Fi or any data connection.

Answer substitution questions
When a shopper texts about an item that ran out, reply from your browser so the order arrives the way you want it.
Questions
Can a driver call me on my TwinNumber?
Yes. Answer in your browser, or forward calls to your own phone. The driver only ever sees your TwinNumber.
I'm only in the U.S. for a few weeks. Is it still worth it?
Yes. It works over any internet connection, so the app gets a U.S. number while your home SIM stays as it is. When you leave, you can turn off renewal.
Can I use one number for every delivery app?
Yes. Use the same TwinNumber on each app you order from, and every code and courier text lands in one inbox.
