I just open an account for a US number, also I’m looking into having a EU number as well, your website mentioned twilio SGX provide EU number,
-
I just want to understand more on how to make payment, can I pay the EU number via jmp.chat? (as this project says on the website, that if you want to support the twilio SGX poject, one of the way is to become a customer of jmp.chat )
-
In case I won’t be able to pay via jmp.chat, hence cannot get the EU number from twilio SGX, If I get a EU number from another voip provider, can I port to the existing jmp.chat US number please? So my friend can carry on call the EU number.
Since twilio 's regsiter and payment take too much personal information, just too see if there is other way around
Thanks
If you have a working JMP account, you’re a supporter already (since there’s no free tier). Their SGX is free (as in beer).
If I get a EU number from another voip provider, can I port to the existing jmp.chat
No. You can only port in US/Canadian numbers.

I just opened a JMP Chat account with a +1 DID. I had already registered for a free Sonetel account and ordered a +3197 DID with them. It seems the combination could be just what you might want as well. I spend around 8 months/year abroad.
I have Sonetel forward incoming calls to the JMP Chat +1 DID at a 0,010 EUR/minute rate, so I can use the included Snikket and Cheogram. Sonetel actually recommends forwarding incoming calls to my +316 eSIM at a 0,0170 EUR/minute rate. My route saves a bit…
For now I intend to place outgoing calls through Sonetel only, because their outgoing call rates are lower than JMP Chat’s. But I am trying to figure out a way to reduce costs there as well.
JMP Chat includes 120 minutes call time credit/month, so I shouldn’ t need to pay their 0,0083 EUR/minute incoming calls rate. And hopefully in the near future I can ditch my +316 eSIM provider. I already replaced my +316 eSIM with the Sonetel +3197 DID with Whatsapp and Signal.
In the end I hope to get my peeps to join Snikket, so I can get rid of Whatsapp and Signal. I will hold onto Beeper for a while as a backup for the normies around me…
