Buy a Chilean virtual number: the essentials
A Chile virtual number is a +56 9 mobile for a market that runs on WhatsApp and on apps: Mercado Libre, delivery services and fintech apps all verify by SMS. A form built for Chile expects the 9 after the country code. A virtual Chilean phone number receives the SMS in your dashboard. That is how sellers from the rest of Latin America, travellers heading to Santiago and remote companies with Chilean customers get through registration.
Chile is sold as one-time codes. You pay per received SMS, the passport above shows the live price, and one code belongs to one registration. That covers a WhatsApp account, a Mercado Libre profile or a first sign-up in a delivery app. A permanent Chilean line is arranged on request through support. Fintech apps in particular re-check the phone, so raise the question before you register. Numbers at BasolinoVoIP are issued to the dashboard right after payment.
Chilean numbers in practice
A regional seller expanding from a neighbouring market opens Mercado Libre for Chile and is asked for a local mobile. A temporary Chilean number receives the code, and the profile is confirmed without a trip over the Andes.
A traveller sets up a delivery app before landing in Santiago, or a company registers WhatsApp to answer Chilean customers. Both take a Chilean phone number for verification, one code each, read in the dashboard. Nearby in the catalog: Argentine numbers.

Can I move an existing account to a Chilean number?
Yes. Change the phone in the account settings of the service to the new +56 number, confirm the code from the dashboard, and the account keeps working.
