🌍 Adding Phone Numbers in JotPhone
With JotPhone, you can purchase phone numbers from over 70 countries and manage them directly from the Phone Numbers section of your account.
Each country has its own regulatory requirements, which may include submitting documents for verification. Once your documents are approved for a specific country and number type, the same documents can typically be reused to add additional numbers of the same type.
In some cases, only an address may be required.

đź’ˇ Free Phone Numbers with Your Subscription
The number of free phone numbers included with your subscription depends on the number of members in your account.
Example:
If your account has 10 members (including yourself), you can add up to 10 phone numbers at no additional cost — provided each number costs $6 or less.
Any additional numbers beyond that limit will be chargeable.
“Free phone numbers” means the number cost is automatically reduced to zero for eligible numbers within your allowed limit.
