Example of our test messages: Og4gdlg ABCDE
You get automatically paid from €0.01 to €0.03 for each received test SMS sent by us.
What SMS will I receive? Should I do something with them?
You will receive SMS tests which have code with random letters or numbers in its content. Besides that the content can include anything, including links. Please ignore completely all our test SMS and do not reply to any of them. We send SMS only in order to check if they have been delivered to your phone and, if so, in what form. Messages get forwarded to our servers after you receive them automatically. Once your balance is updated, please feel free to delete the messages.
How much money do I make and how?
You will be paid for each received test SMS. One SMS = from €0.01 to €0.03.
Can you read my private messages?
No, we are saving only those messages which contain our code and for which we prove to be our tests. All other messages are dismissed and not being saved anywhere in our system. For more information, please read our Privacy Policy.
Why do you pay money for receiving SMS?
The reason is that a lot of Telecom SMS providers and Mobile Network Operators need to send SMS test messages to foreign countries to verify and ensure proper delivery of their SMS routes. You actually get paid because we use your phone number to provide such testing services.
How can increase the amount of tests?
Keep the app running constantly and have stable Internet connection. At times Android OS automatically closes some apps so you need to ensure that our app is opened again in such cases. Your main goal is to keep the app always running, our system will see that your phone is available for tests and you will have a greater chance of receiving test messages.
I didn’t find my country during registration. What should I do?
If you didn’t find your country during registration it means that Money SMS isn’t available in your country at the moment.

Call Testing
What is call testing?
Call testing allows reputable telecom companies to check the performance of their calls. By letting the Money SMS app make silent test calls to your device, you help improve their services and earn extra money with no effort.
How are test calls silent?
Test calls are silent because they don’t appear as regular calls on your device. The app automatically detects and logs these calls in the background without notifying or disturbing you.
Is my privacy protected?
Absolutely! The app does not access your personal calls or interact with calls from your contacts. It only handles expected test calls and doesn’t interfere with unknown numbers either.
Will it cost me anything?
No, there are no costs for participating in call testing. All test calls are automatically declined, ensuring you won’t incur any charges.
How much can I earn?
You’ll earn €0.02 for each test call received and logged in the app. Payments are tracked transparently in the “Overview > Calls” section of the app.
