This makes us at WooCommerce very happy!

As long as they don't send messages from a shortcode number.

Exactly!

Fixed, I'm an idiot. It's per/month.

I'll make that clearer - thanks!

I've heard that but just US people for a US number. Anyway, the issue was that I (Australian) couldn't get an Australian number :) Thanks for checking it out!

Yeah, sorry that wasn't clearer. It's just ~15 countries that you can buy a number for, but you receive the SMS anywhere in the world by email / etc.

Good point, will fix this up!

That's just how it auto-formats / displays. The numbers are from Twilio and I've got some customers using Austrian numbers. Sorry for the confusion.

Post on the creation of it if anyone's interested - http://bryceadams.com/built-nomad-sms-3-days/

Happy to answer any questions and hear your thoughts!

Yeah, it's an annoying situation! Exactly why I created it :)

Hi! If you didn't have your Norwegian sim card in your phone though, you wouldn't be able to receive it. Also some people don't have a local sim card (eg. I travel around Asia, no sim from Australia) and those that do may have to pay global roaming charges to receive SMSes. I should probably explain the need for it a bit better. Thanks for checking it out :)

Hey! I'm Bryce (the author of the post / product). As I touched on in my post, I'm a fan of using the tools you already know. The end goal was clear - to build a product that solved my problem. For me, I was looking for the fastest and most efficient route to get to that solution.

Great things often come out of rejection, failure, disappointment. Problems need solutions, etc.

This is super cool.
