📞 Customize Outbound Caller ID in JotPhone
JotPhone allows you to customize your Outbound Caller ID so your customers see a professional and recognizable phone number when you make outgoing calls. This helps improve customer trust, brand consistency, and call answer rates.
With this feature, you can choose which number appears to your contacts whenever you place calls through JotPhone.
⚙️ What Does the Outbound Caller ID Setting Do?
The Outbound Caller ID determines the phone number displayed to recipients when making outbound calls from JotPhone.
You can:
- Use your JotPhone number as the default caller ID
- Add and verify external phone numbers such as your mobile or business line
- Assign different outbound caller IDs for different Jotphone numbers
📌 Default Caller ID vs. Custom Caller ID
| Default Caller ID | Add a New Caller ID |
|---|---|
| Your JotPhone number is automatically used as the outbound caller ID for all outgoing calls. | You can add and verify another number such as your mobile number or external business line. |
| Customers will see your JotPhone number when receiving calls from the Web, Desktop, or Mobile app. | Once verified, the new number can be selected from the Outbound Caller ID dropdown menu. |
| Best for users who want to consistently display their JotPhone number. | Ideal for users who want different caller IDs for different teams or communication purposes. |
