There are mainly two kinds of phone numbers that you can get online.

1). VoIP (virtual) phone numbers

2). Sim-Based phone number

99% of the companies that provide phone numbers online deal in VoIP phone numbers.

It is hard to get sim-based phone number online without actually purchasing a sim.

Some users buy VoIP numbers with the intent to receive SMS verification codes from websites like
Google, Twitter, Facebook, and so on. The thing is that VoIP numbers don't work for verification
purposes since almost all the websites only allow users to verify their accounts using sim-based real
phone numbers. In other words, VoIP numbers are not allowed to be used for account verification.

Google voice is a popular service that provides VoIP phone numbers for free but their numbers do
not work if you try to verify your account on third-party websites.

VoIP phone numbers exist for different purposes. They have many other use cases but receiving text
verification codes from third-party websites is not one of them.

If you are actually looking for a service that provides SMS verification code online, then you should
be looking at sim-based numbers.

FelixMerchant.com is a service that provides sim-based phone numbers for account verification.

The thing about sim-based numbers is that they belong to carriers like Vodafone, t-mobile, sprint,
etc.. depending on the country, while a VoIP phone number like that of google voice would show
"bandwidth" as a carrier. Many virtual carriers purchase phone numbers through a service called
Bandwidth.com. This includes services like Google Voice.

There are many "free carrier lookup" services on the internet through which you can easily know
which carrier (company) a phone number belongs to.
