EasyRinger makes it cheap and easy for people in your home country to reach you directly on your mobile phone almost anywhere in the world.
When you sign up, you choose a new number in your home country — a number used exclusively by you. Give that number to your friends, family, customers, or anyone who may want to call or message you.
Calling your EasyRinger number connects directly to your phone. You pay a low per-minute rate (see our rates for SMS and voice), while the caller only pays their usual local rate — often free.
Originally built for expats and frequent travelers, EasyRinger is perfect for anyone wanting to stay in touch internationally. Even if you’re not abroad, you can purchase additional local numbers to expand your presence or manage personal and business calls separately.
We are a US company based in Washington State, operating phone numbers in multiple countries. EasyRinger was formerly known as “Call Me in China”, focusing on calls to China and Hong Kong.
Our founders — former Microsoft engineers and managers — created this service while working abroad to stay connected with family and friends.
No, you don’t. Many customers use EasyRinger to get additional local numbers in their own country or region — for example, to have a number in another state or province. You can sign up and assign your new number to your current phone service easily.
Please See our Virtual Number List for available countries. If your desired country isn’t shown, contact us — we may still be able to help.

When selecting your number, you’ll see whether SMS is supported.
Sometimes, yes — but not always. Certain US virtual numbers can receive OTPs (One-Time Passwords) for online services.
However, some services block virtual numbers due to their anonymous nature. For complete reliability, you may need a direct carrier line, which is more expensive and less flexible than EasyRinger.
