A short video call on the dating app confirms someone is who they say they are.
Online dating
Date online without giving out your number
Moving a conversation off the dating app is a big step — and your personal number says more about you than you think. Use a HeyNum number for the first chats, calls and dates, and share your real one only when you're ready.
- Matches never see your real number
- Block or mute anyone in one tap
- Switch the line off when you take a break
Why a second number
Your personal number, protected
With your personal number
- Your number can reveal your full name, your photo and your social profiles.
- Blocking someone doesn't stop them knowing how to reach you.
- Unwanted messages follow you everywhere your number goes.
With a HeyNum number
- Text and call matches from a separate number.
- Block, mute or switch the line off in one tap.
- Share your personal number only once trust is built.
Set it up
Ready in three steps
It takes about a minute — and you never need to show an ID.
- 1

Choose a number from your own country, so it looks completely natural to your matches.
- 2

When you're ready to text or call, give your HeyNum number instead of your personal one.

Practical tips
Five habits that keep you safe
Good advice, whether or not you use HeyNum.
Meet somewhere public
Choose a busy café or bar for a first date, and tell a friend where you're going.
Never send money or codes
Romance scams often end with an “emergency” and a request for money or a verification code. Real matches never ask.
Mind your messaging profile
If you move to a messaging app, check which name and photo it shows to new contacts.
Trust your instincts
If something feels off, block the number and report the profile on the dating app.

FAQ
Online dating: your questions
Still have a question?
Our support team is made of real humans. Write to us and we'll get back to you fast.
Contact supportWill my match know it's a second number?
No. It's a real mobile number from your country, so it looks and behaves like any other mobile number.
Can I use it with dating apps that ask for a phone number?
Many dating apps verify your phone number with a code, which your HeyNum number can receive. Each app sets its own rules, so we can't guarantee every one — but our numbers come from real mobile ranges, which gives you the best chance.
What if someone keeps texting me?
Block them in one tap. If you'd rather start fresh, switch the number off or replace it — your personal number was never involved.
Can I call my matches from it?
Yes. Calls and texts both go through your HeyNum number, from your browser on any device.
