Move It SMS Verification

Hailing a motorcycle taxi in the Philippines? Complete the Move It SMS verification with a virtual number and try setting up your passenger account without buying a local SIM first.

Move It is a motorcycle-taxi ride-hailing app in the Philippines and one of the three companies, alongside Angkas and JoyRide, included in the Department of Transportation's pilot programme in Metro Manila and Metro Cebu that was set up to shape the legal framework for motorcycle taxis. It verifies phone numbers by SMS to make sure passenger accounts belong to real people.

To verify Move It with a virtual number, enter a temporary Philippine number in the app and type in the code. It suits business travellers and tourists on short trips who have not bought a local SIM yet, and passengers who would rather not share a personal number with drivers. Some numbers may be rejected, and service may only be offered in certain cities.

Drivers may need to call or text you during a trip, and temporary verification numbers usually cannot take calls and expire quickly. Always wear the helmet, check that the driver and plate match the app, refuse payments or extra charges outside the app and never share your verification code.
