DialAnyone calls Germany from $0.0032 per minute with no monthly fee and no contract, billed by the second from a credit balance. Clerk Chat is compared against that below on price, on what it takes to get started, and on whether you can hold a Germany number.
Germany numbers are voice-only wherever you buy them, so neither service can offer one that receives SMS verification codes.
