Get your Maldives number
Sign up at PhoneBorn with an email, top up with crypto and choose Maldives: a monthly plan ($3.71) if you want to keep the account, or a single-use X (Twitter) OTP number ($0.25) for one code.
Open X (Twitter)
Go to the sign-up flow (“Phone”) or Settings → Your account → Account information → Phone.
Enter the +960 number
Select Maldives (+960) in the country picker and paste the number from your dashboard without a leading 0. Maldives mobiles look like 7xx xxxx → +960 7xx xxxx.

Day-to-day life in Maldives runs on Viber, WhatsApp and Facebook, yet X (Twitter) remains the app for news, brand or community accounts aimed at a local audience. A +960 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Guesthouse and dive bookings: Travellers staying on local islands like Maafushi or on liveaboard dive trips arrange transfers and bookings via Viber and WhatsApp.
X frequently locks new or active accounts and asks for a phone code to unlock them.
Tourism is the heart of the Maldivian economy, and resorts, guesthouses and speedboat operators all coordinate over Viber and WhatsApp. With a large foreign workforce spread across remote islands, a local +960 number is often the easiest way to stay in touch.
