SMS Numbers

SMS Numbers

People often need to sign up on a platform or service once, or need a foreign phone number to verify their account on platforms that aren't available in their country.


KwikSIM gives users access to a one-off foreign phone number they can use to receive an SMS verification code without having to expose their private number.

International Data eSIMs

International Data eSIMs

After landing in a new country, travellers often need to find a local SIM before they can access mobile internet.


KwikSIM enables travellers buy and install an eSIM before they travel, so they can activate it as soon as they arrive and step off the plane with mobile internet.

Wallet Refund

Wallet Refund

One primary logic designed into KwikSIM was the wallet refund system. KwikSIM uses a wallet-based model, allowing users to fund their wallet and use their balance across the platform. For services such as SMS numbers, a user may purchase a number but fail to receive a verification code, usually due to an issue with the service provider. When this happens, the user is automatically refunded to their KwikSIM wallet within the next hour, allowing them to purchase another number and try again.


This system is made possible through an arrangement with KwikSIM's phone number providers. When a provider refunds KwikSIM for an unsuccessful transaction, that refund is passed directly to the user. This keeps the user from bearing the cost of a failed service and helps maintain a smooth, frustration-free experience.

Rather than overbuilding the design system, my focus was on establishing the essential UI foundations KwikSIM needed to create a consistent and scalable experience across its different services.
