Sending a text without showing your number comes down to three fields and a confirmation. Here's how to do it, and above all what anonymity really covers.
In three steps
- Write your message (160 characters) and enter the recipient's number (a French mobile starting with 06 or 07).
- Confirm: a 60-second anti-abuse delay comes before sending.
- Off it goes: the SMS is sent from a shared gateway number. Your personal number never appears on the recipient's end.
No sign-up, no app, no bank card. The detailed guide on how to send an anonymous SMS walks through every step.
What "anonymous" means here
Anonymity applies to what the recipient sees: they only get a service number, never yours. That said, this is not absolute untraceability — more on that below.
What you won't be able to do
- Receive a reply on your phone: sending is one-way.
- Attach a photo: the service sends text only.
- Schedule the send: the message goes out right after confirmation.

An important reminder
Hiding your number doesn't allow everything. Sends are logged, and illegal use (harassment, threats, impersonation) is prohibited and traceable. Used correctly, the anonymous SMS is simply a tool for discretion — discover the situations where it's useful.
