Step by step
Signal asks for your number at the registration screen right after installing Signal. Expect a 6-digit code; it can arrive by SMS or voice call.
Get your Botswana number
Sign up at PhoneBorn with an email, top up with crypto and choose Botswana: a monthly plan ($4.19) if you want to keep the account, or a single-use Signal OTP number ($0.27) for one code.
Open Signal
Go to the registration screen right after installing Signal.
Enter the +267 number
Select Botswana (+267) in the country picker and paste the number from your dashboard without a leading 0. Botswana mobiles look like 7x xxx xxx → +267 7x xxx xxx.
Enter the 6-digit SMS code
Enter the 6-digit SMS code — or choose “Call me” and take the code by voice (incoming calls are unlimited on every plan).

Day-to-day life in Botswana runs on WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram, yet Signal remains the app for private conversations without exposing your personal number. A +267 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Safari and lodge bookings: Travellers heading to the Okavango Delta and Chobe can give lodges and transfer operators a Botswana number for confirmations.
Signal identities are tied to the number; losing it means losing the registration.
Botswana is one of Africa’s most stable economies, built on diamonds and high-end safari tourism in the Okavango Delta and Chobe. Lodges, guides and suppliers generally coordinate over WhatsApp, so a +267 number makes bookings and business contact simpler. Batswana studying or working abroad also keep a local line for family and banking.
Local context
Botswana requires SIM cards to be registered with an ID or passport before they can be used. A Botswana number from PhoneBorn needs no SIM and no ID — only an email.
