Q: How exactly does the SMS payment system work. Why do I NOT provide my cellphone number on registration? In order to aviod confustion we'll provide a simple step by step example of the system below. For the purpose of this example we'll say that Joe wants to sign up, and will want to make purchases and will pay using his cellphone. Step 1: He will create a free account using the following details: Username: Joe Email: joe@hotmail.com Note that Joe no longer provides his cell number. If, at a later date, Joe sends us a Premium Rate SMS, our system will send Joe a code to unlock the Paid content. We do not need to store the Cell number to achieve this.
