SpareLine

Why some numbers need documents

Why this is asked

The requirement comes from the country's regulator, not from SpareLine. For some number types the rules say who may hold a number, for example somebody with an address in the country, and the operator has to check this before the number is activated.

How it works in the app

  • When you pick a country, number types that need an approval are marked.
  • Before you pay, the app shows what is asked for. SpareLine does not place the order until the requirements have been checked.
  • One application covers every number of that type in that country. You do not apply again for each number.
  • Your applications are listed on the Numbers screen as approvals that let you buy regulated numbers.

If the application needs more

  • If the reviewer asks something, open the application to answer.
  • If it was turned down, open it to see which parts to correct. The parts that passed stay answered.
  • Approvals do not last forever. When one has run out you can apply again, and the app reuses what you gave last time.
