MoneyPay SMS Verification

Signing up with Migros's payment arm in Turkey? A virtual number can receive the MoneyPay SMS verification code, but the e-money account is always opened in your own name.

MoneyPay is a Turkish payment company founded in 2020 as an affiliate of retailer Migros, part of Anadolu Group; after licence approval from the Central Bank of Turkey in 2022, it moved to an e-money infrastructure. Individuals get 24/7 transfers, QR payments, bill payments and gold, silver and platinum trading; businesses get POS terminals and meal and grocery cards for staff. It confirms your number by SMS.

Technically you enter the temporary number in the app and type in the code, but e-money accounts are subject to identity verification, and transaction approvals and alerts go to that number. A virtual number therefore makes most sense for a first look at the app or for business owners assessing MoneyPay's corporate tools; for everyday use, your own line is the safer choice.

Because MoneyPay handles transfers and precious-metal trades, login approvals and password resets may stay tied to your number, and losing it can make access difficult. Complete identity checks with your own details, link the account to a line you will keep, and never give codes or passwords to anyone who calls claiming to be from MoneyPay.
