A USA (Virtual) number from an app instead?

Some apps do sell USA (Virtual) numbers, but on a monthly plan, and they say codes are not guaranteed: Hushed writes that its numbers are “NOT guaranteed to work with third-party verification”. Here you pay $0.01 once for one KakaoTalk sign-up, and if the code does not come, the money goes back.

Before you pay

Is this a scam? Will I lose my money?

You pay $0.01 for one number, with no subscription. If no code arrives within 20 minutes, the money goes back to your balance automatically, so a failed attempt costs time, not money.

What if KakaoTalk rejects the USA (Virtual) number?

Cancel it and take another USA (Virtual) number. The money for the rejected number returns to your balance.

Will someone else use this number for KakaoTalk?

No. After you get your code, the number is not sold again for KakaoTalk. A carrier can still reissue an old number, which nobody can check in advance. If the app rejects it, cancel the number before a code arrives and the money goes back to your balance.

Can I call or text from it?

No. The number only receives SMS, which is what the sign-up code needs.
