If you just received our MyRepublic SIM card, do allow 1 - 2 days for your number to be updated in the database for OTP.

I can't receive OTP/ SMS from any app

  1. Check if your SMS blocker is turned on, if yes - do turn it off and try again

  2. Check if your SMSC number is set to "+65 96845999"

    • Refer to this article on the steps to check and set your SMSC number

I can't receive OTP from a specific app

Check if you are able to receive any SMS from another mobile number. If you are able to receive it, it is likely due to app/ merchant issue. The best solution is to directly reach out to the specific app/ merchant's contact support to highlight this issue.
