How to Set Up and Use Verified Caller ID

Your phone number is more than just a line of contact; it serves as a security line for your customers, a source of reassurance, and a key component of your branding. The best way to enhance the experience for both parties is to set your Verified Caller ID, which is the name associated with your phone number and what your clients see when you call.

Adding a Verified Phone Number

Before you can use your phone number as Caller ID, you must verify it in the CRM. Here’s how:

Access the Verified Caller IDs Section

Navigate to the sub-account settings by clicking on Settings. Then, open the Phone Numbers section. Here, you will find the Verified Caller IDs tab.

Initiate the Verification Process

Click the Add Number button to add a new Caller ID.

Next, enter the phone number you wish to verify, including the country code, and click Verify Number.

Complete the Verification

A six-digit One-Time Password (OTP) will appear on the screen. Shortly, you’ll receive a call on the number you’re trying to verify. Enter the OTP when prompted.

Once verified, your phone number will appear in the Verified CallerID list.

Using a Verified Phone Number for Calling

After verifying your phone number, you can set it as your Caller ID for outbound calls:

Select the Phone Number

Find the phone number you wish to update from your list and click on the edit icon from the 3-dot dropdown.

Enable the Verified Caller ID Feature

In the settings for your selected phone number, switch to the Advanced Settings tab, and select your Caller ID under Bring Your Own Number.

Complete the Setup

With these settings saved, all outgoing calls from this phone number will now display your verified Caller ID.

📝 Note: It’s important to remember that verified phone numbers can only be used for outbound calls. Incoming calls to this number will still be routed through your existing service provider, such as your wireless or landline provider.
