If you are planning to travel to India, UAE, USA, Thailand, or China, OYO can help you find the appropriate hotel or apartment for your stay. OYO offers over 157,000 options from different countries, providing the best prices and conditions for clients. The service for selecting temporary accommodations is available through the official website or the application, which can be freely downloaded from PlayMarket and the App Store.
To begin using the service, select the city where you want to stay or enter your location to view nearby hotels and houses. A list of apartments with prices, descriptions, ratings, and reviews will appear, allowing you to choose an option that fits your budget. Payment for the room is not mandatory upfront; there is an option to pay upon arrival.
Before making a booking, you need to register with a phone number, and an SMS with a confirmation code will be sent to that number. It is recommended to use Indian numbers for OYO since the service was founded in India. However, even if you don't have an Indian number, it doesn't mean you cannot use OYO. You can still obtain an Indian number by using an SMS receiving service that offers virtual numbers for rent. These virtual numbers have the same properties as physical numbers and can be used for registration on various services. Using virtual numbers has several advantages:
Temporary numbers can be rented on the SMS receiving service website without the need to provide personal data. One registration allows you to make purchases with just one click.
Virtual numbers are available to any user, regardless of their location. This means that residents of England or any other country can easily purchase an Indian number.
There are no limitations on the purchase of virtual numbers, allowing you to create multiple accounts on services that require registration.
The main advantage of Indian temporary numbers is their availability in large quantities. Since the country often attracts new users through welcome bonuses, registering additional accounts using Indian virtual numbers can lead to significant savings. For example, OYO offers a discount of 400 rupees to new users who create an account on the app. By using Indian virtual numbers and registering each time a hotel needs to be booked, users can save a significant amount.
To buy an Indian number for registration on OYO, follow these step-by-step instructions:
Register on the SMS receiving service website by clicking the "Registration" button in the upper right corner of the page and providing a valid email address and password.
Go to the balance replenishment section, specify the desired amount, and select the payment system (debit cards, e-wallets, etc.). The minimum cost of an Indian number for OYO starts from 0.09 USD.
On the left side of the page, select the country "India" and the appropriate operator from the list of available countries and operators. You can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+F to simplify the search.
Scroll down the page until you find the list of services from which you can receive SMS on the left side. Locate "oyo" in the list, click on it, and then click "Buy".
Wait for the purchase card to appear and copy the received phone number from it. Paste this number into the OYO registration field and request a confirmation code to be sent to it.
Return to the SMS receiving service page and wait for the code to appear, which will allow you to complete the registration process.
By registering on the OYO app, you will receive a welcome bonus of 400 rupees. Use the SMS receiving service to create accounts on various foreign applications or websites in unlimited quantities.
