Why use a Malawi number for ChatGPT (OpenAI)?
Day-to-day life in Malawi runs on WhatsApp, Facebook and TikTok, yet ChatGPT (OpenAI) remains the app for an OpenAI account registered in a supported country. A +265 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Workers in South Africa: Many Malawians working in South Africa keep a +265 number to send money home and stay in touch with family in Blantyre and Lilongwe.
OpenAI can ask for the phone again for API access, billing or security reviews.
