## Choose the service and country

For a quick start, use **Quick rental** on [Overview](/en/dashboard/user). Choose a service and duration for a United States SMS number, check the displayed price, then select **Continue**. Checkout opens with those selections filled in; review the country, term, price and wallet balance there before renting. Continue does not place an order. For Unlimited, the quick box uses the default AT&T carrier; you can change it in checkout.

Open Rentals and choose New rental. Search the service or use a category, then select the country. Unlimited (All Services) rental and service-specific rental can have different prices and supported terms. An account record added later does not change the purchased service scope.

Country selection does not guarantee a particular city or carrier. Check the external service’s requirements before paying.

Rental countries and available terms refresh once a minute. Choose a country with stock, then compare its current total USD price. The selected country stays with your order through sign-in and checkout; unavailable countries are hidden. One-time verifications have their own country availability.

## Choose Short or Long term

New rental combines both options. On desktop, compare all available terms together. On mobile, use Short term / Long term in the order panel. Service not Listed stays first, and Suggest Service opens the service addition request. Unlimited (All Services) shows only its supported rental terms.

Short term uses the offered one-time verification duration; its numbers and SMS remain in Verifications. Long term uses the selected rental duration; its numbers and SMS remain in Rentals. Country, stock, prices, cancellation and renewal eligibility still depend on the actual product.

## Review the current quote

Choose an offered duration and quantity from 1 to 5. Wait for live prices to load after each change. Check unit price, total and confirmed wallet balance. A pending deposit invoice does not count as available money. Resolve unavailable stock or quote errors before submitting.

1. Check service and country.
2. Check term and quantity.
3. Review total and available balance.
4. Submit once and wait.

## Verify each purchased number

The purchase is handled per number, so a quantity order can have partial results. Check the returned result, Rentals list and transaction history. If the response is unclear, refresh before trying again to avoid buying a second set.

Open the new number in Workspace, copy its phone number and note expiry. Use Fleet's newest sorting to find recently added rentals. Do not assume that retrying an expired rental purchase returns the same phone number.
