**Note that we cannot guarantee that your number will work with WhatsApp due to the carrier and/or other factors. 99.9% of NumberBarn and NumberGarage numbers will work with WhatsApp. If your number is already working with another provider, it will continue to work with WhatsApp if you transfer it to us. If your number is not supported, you will receive an error message when trying to configure the app.**
