Why do I need Credits to verify my ID in Second Phone Number?

ID verification requires Credits because mobile carriers charge for processing and validating government-issued identification documents. These carrier charges cover the secure verification infrastructure, compliance with telecommunications regulations, and identity authentication services.

The minimum balance in your account ensures that carrier verification charges can be processed properly. This verification system helps maintain platform security by confirming that all users are properly identified, which reduces fraud and creates a safer communication environment.

This one-time carrier verification process unlocks all premium features and is standard practice in the telecommunications industry. Once verified, your account remains in good standing without additional verification charges from carriers.
