What area codes can I use for creating an account?

Note: International-based numbers cannot be used for registering for an account nor be chosen as your Sideline number.

In order to create a Sideline account, you will need to provide a mobile number to use as your registered number. However, there are some restrictions by city and/or location which you should be aware of.

As a general rule of thumb, any valid carrier phone number from the contiguous United States is accepted for creating an account.

What isn't considered part of the contiguous United States, and thus not accepted for registration:

Hawaii (HI)
Alaska (AK)
American Samoa (AS)
U.S Virgin Islands (VI)
Northern Mariana Islands (MP)
Guam (GU)
Puerto Rico (PR)* - accepted for registering for a Sideline account

FYI: Mobile numbers from Puerto Rico are accepted when registering for a Sideline account.

Important: Any of the locations/area codes mentioned above are not approved for use with Sideline and thus will be unable to create an account.

Additionally, if you change the number that is registered with your Sideline account to any of the above locations, Sideline will no longer work for you as we do not support numbers located outside of the contiguous United States.

Note: If you still wish to have a second phone number but your area code falls under the list seen above, you can always sign up for our other app 'TextFree' (which uses email for sign-up.) Please click here for more information.

We are sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause. If you have further questions or concerns, please submit a request.
