Who TabPhone is for
Small teams
One number your whole team can answer. Calls ring everyone on the team, and texts, voicemail and call history are shared. Each person signs in with their own email.
Freelancers
A second number without a second phone. Give clients a business number, keep your personal one to yourself, and send work calls to voicemail when you're off.
Everything a phone number should do
No desk phones, SIP settings or hardware. Sign in and your number works.
Calls in and out
Answer and place calls in your browser, on Android or on iPhone. Every device rings at once.
Texts and pictures
Send and receive texts and picture messages with US and Canadian numbers.
Voicemail
Listen in the app, or get each message by email with its recording. Missed calls and texts too.
Teams
Give a team its own number. Add members by email and choose who rings when it's called.
Forwarding
Also ring your mobile or another phone, or send every call straight to voicemail.
Your address book
Sync contacts from Google Contacts, iCloud or any CardDAV address book, like your CRM's. Calls and texts show their names.
AI assistant New
It can answer calls you miss and take a message, or call someone for you to book or ask something, then report back. It runs on your own OpenAI account.
As many numbers as you need
Have several numbers on one account, and keep personal and business ones in separate organizations, each with its own balance, contacts and history.
No passwords
Sign in with a link we email you, or with a passkey. Nothing to remember or leak.
Simple, prepaid pricing
Add money to your balance and pay only for what you use. No subscription, no contract.

Questions
Which numbers can I get?
Numbers in the United States and Canada. You choose the area code when you sign up, and you can have several numbers on one account.
Do I need to live in the US or Canada?
No. TabPhone works wherever you have an internet connection, on Wi-Fi or mobile data, so it's a good way to keep a North American number while you live or travel abroad.
Can I call other countries?
Yes. Calls to most countries are possible and paid from your balance at the rate for that country. See all rates.
Can I keep my current phone number?
Yes. Email porting@alpha21.io with the US or Canadian number you want to transfer, and we'll help you move it to TabPhone.
Can I call 911?
No. TabPhone can't call 911 or other emergency numbers, and it isn't a replacement for a regular phone line. Keep another way to reach emergency services, such as your mobile phone.
How does a team share a number?
Create an organization, invite people by email and make a team with its own number. Calls ring everyone on the team, and the whole organization shares its contacts, texts and call history. Each person has their own sign-in.
What happens when my balance runs low?
You choose: we email you when it drops below an amount you set, or we top it up automatically from your saved card. Your number's monthly fee comes from the balance too.
Is there a contract or a free trial?
There's no contract or subscription: you pay as you go from a prepaid balance, and you can release a number at any time. There's no free trial; the smallest top-up is $10.
