F A Q | Virtual Phone Numbers

A virtual phone number is a telephone number that is not tied to a specific phone or location. It enables you to receive calls and route calls to another phone number at your convenience.

A virtual number works similarly to a normal phone number. However, the call connection is routed over the internet using VoIP technology. When a virtual phone number is purchased, you can assign a destination number to it. This number is where calls are routed automatically. Using the "Outbound Calling" feature allows you to make calls using your virtual number, so this number appears on the receiver's caller ID.

If you want to buy virtual phone numbers, the process quite easy. All you have to do is go to our pricing page, select the number you would like to purchase, and enter your destination number where calls will be routed to. Then just complete the checkout process and verification and you're all set! In many cases numbers are quickly provisioned and available to use in the same business day.
