NET10 Wireless Account Number & PIN: Accurate 2026

Net10 account # is NOT the Phone Number. It is the MEID or IMEI serial number of the phone (this can be found on the back of the phone itself - under the battery, so remove the battery!) Or, if your are using a BYOP SIM Card, it will be the last 15-digits of your Net10 SIM Card ICCID number. This makes porting away from Net10 difficult for customers who have lost their phone or had it stolen before trying to port out. NET10 doesn't use passcodes, use 0000 if the operator you are porting to requires a passcode.

Here is how to get your NET10 Wireless account number and transfer PIN, and what to do with them when you move your number to another carrier.

Account Number

Net10 does not publish a port-out account number page. Third-party guides say the account number is usually your phone’s IMEI (dial *#06#) or, for your own phone, the last 15 digits of the SIM. Call 1-877-836-2368 to confirm.

Transfer PIN

Net10 does not publish port-out PIN steps on pages read. Third-party guides conflict: Optimum Mobile says text NTP or NPP to 611611 for a 4-digit Transfer PIN, while another source says Net10 uses no PIN, so try 0000. Call 1-877-836-2368 to confirm.

Host network: NET10 Wireless uses more than one network. Check your IMEI with the carrier you are switching to before you move — a phone locked to another network may not activate.

NET10 Wireless Porting Instructions

Your NET10 account number is the MEID or IMEI serial number of your device, which can be found on the back of the phone itself. If your device has a removable battery, the IMEI will be on a sticker under the battery. If your device does not have a removable battery, you can find the ESN printed in very small digits on the back of your device. The ‘About’ section within the settings of your phone also should contain your IMEI. Unfortunately this makes porting away from NET10 difficult for customers who have lost their phone or had it stolen before trying to port out.

Your NET10 account # is NOT the Phone Number. However, if you are using a BYOP SIM Card, your account number will be the last 15-digits of your NET10 SIM Card ICCID number. NET10 does not use passcodes, so enter 0000 if the operator you are porting into requires a passcode.
