Uses hodl invoices 0 +5
A hodl invoice on the Lightning Network temporarily holds your payment, similar to escrow. The receiver doesn’t get the funds immediately; instead, the payment is locked until specific conditions are met. Once those conditions are fulfilled, the receiver releases the funds by supplying a cryptographic key. This method is useful for secure transactions or deposits.

Previously used numbers cannot currently be recalled for re-validation due to provider limitations, meaning you cannot access accounts that rely solely on them.
No Accounts
The service does not require accounts or balances due to its use of Bitcoin Lightning Network payments.
Payment Method
Only Bitcoin Lightning Network payments are accepted, which aids in anonymity and privacy.
Automatic Refunds
Automatic refunds are issued for failed SMS delivery attempts, ensuring you only pay for successful verifications.

Great service. Sometimes it takes a bit until you get a working number but if you try often enough it works
