How to Register WeChat Without Your Real Phone Number

Do you have to cooperate with the Chinese for business?

Or are Chinese your potential customers?

If you have any chance to have to talk with Chinese online, then WeChat is a must-have tool because most of them use it for online communication.

WeChat can be also used as a social media platform because of its Moments where people share their daily life with their WeChat friends. WeChat also contains a WeChat wallet allowing users to pay when shopping online or offline. Therefore, WeChat is also called the “do everything” app.

WeChat registration calls for a valid phone number for online identity verification. Due to its particularity and unique application purpose, it’s unnecessary to use your real SIM-card phone number to register an account on WeChat, which is especially true because WeChat isn’t your daily app but a tool used to talk with Chinese. Unfortunately, another SIM-card phone number costs a fortune, and worse still, it’s not so frequently used. Therefore, it’s of great necessity to move towards a smart way to help you keep a balance between privacy, business, and budget.

Now let’s dive into this article and learn how to sign up for a WeChat account using a SIM-card-free number.

Since the executive order was signed by President Trump at the beginning of August 2020, the Chinese living in the US have become so nervous because the WeChat ban would definitely bring forward inconvenience to them if it was forced to be used. Although the ban was released by President Biden a couple of days ago, it was still necessary to prepare for the worst that would come.

However, the people who must communicate with the Chinese who play a role as either a supplier, potential customers, or manufacturers should still use WeChat for fast and smooth contact with the Chinese.

Many people are suffering from not being able to register on WeChat because they don’t have a Chinese phone number, or WeChat is banned in their own country so they cannot register on WeChat with their real phone number.
