Buy a KakaoTalk number
In the dashboard, select KakaoTalk, choose the United States, Canada or the United Kingdom, and buy the number. It stays reserved for 20 minutes.
KakaoTalk is South Korea's main messaging app, and people in the US, Canada and the UK often install it to talk with friends, family, colleagues or language partners in Korea. The app ties your KakaoTalk profile to a phone number, sends a verification code by SMS, and logs out the old device when the same number is verified somewhere else. You can sign up with a foreign number, so a US, Canadian or UK mobile number works. Noir SMS reserves one for KakaoTalk for 20 minutes, shows the code in your dashboard, and refunds you automatically if Kakao never sends it.

Yes. KakaoTalk registers each account to a phone number and confirms it with an SMS code, and it works with non-Korean numbers. Rent a US, Canada or UK number for KakaoTalk on Noir SMS, enter it in the app, and copy the code from your dashboard. If no SMS arrives within 20 minutes, you're refunded automatically. Link a Kakao Account email so you aren't stuck with the number later.

In the dashboard, select KakaoTalk, choose the United States, Canada or the United Kingdom, and buy the number. It stays reserved for 20 minutes.
Open KakaoTalk, accept the terms, select the country code (+1 or +44) and enter the number. Request the verification code by SMS.
Type the code from your dashboard, finish your profile, then connect a Kakao Account email and password under Settings so you can recover the account without the phone.
KakaoTalk can be backed by a Kakao Account with an email and password. Setting this up right after sign-up is what lets you move devices or restore your account later without the rented number.
Verifying the same number on a new phone moves the account there and signs out the old one. A recycled number could in theory be verified by someone else later, which is another reason to secure the account with your email.
Chatting on KakaoTalk works fine with a foreign number, but certain Korea-only features, such as payments or identity checks for local services, may expect a Korean mobile number. Noir SMS doesn't help with identity or payment verification.
Yes. KakaoTalk supports international phone numbers, and it sends the verification code by SMS to the number you enter. A Noir SMS mobile number from the United States, Canada or the United Kingdom usually works. If Kakao rejects it or the code doesn't arrive, you're refunded.
Make sure you chose the right country and didn't type a leading 0 or 1 twice. KakaoTalk may also limit how often codes can be requested. Wait for the resend option; if nothing comes in 20 minutes, Noir SMS refunds the charge automatically so you can try a different number.
Nothing immediately; KakaoTalk keeps working on the phone where you verified. Problems start when you change devices or reinstall, because Kakao may ask for the number again. Linking a Kakao Account email beforehand avoids that. For an account you'll keep for years, consider switching to your own number.
Not for messaging, calls or open chats. Foreign numbers are accepted for sign-up. A Korean number may matter only for some Korea-specific services tied to KakaoTalk, which are outside what Noir SMS covers.
Yes, for your own account, as long as you follow Kakao's terms. Noir SMS may only be used for your own legitimate accounts. Spam, scams, impersonation and creating accounts in bulk are prohibited.
