With our Click2Dial call bridging feature you can use your Callcentric Account to place calls from any phone. Configuring Click2Dial is easy, just follow the 3 steps below!
| Step 1 |
Set your Callback Number
The Callback Number is the number that we will bridge your calls from. The way Click2Dial works is our system calls you on the Callback Number you define and when you answer you are automatically connected to the number you dialed on the Keypad in the app.
From the Settings screen, select Callback Number. On the Callback Numbers page enter the number(s) you want to bridge your calls from (iPhone, hotel room, office phone, etc).
 
|
| Step 2 |
Select your CallerID
This is the number that will be sent on outbound calls placed through the app. You can use any of your existing Callcentric DIDs or verified third-party numbers for Outbound Caller ID.
From the Settings screen, select Caller ID. On the Caller ID screen select the number you want to use and tap Save.
|
| Step 3 |
Place your call from the Keypad Screen
Go to the Keypad Screen, dial the number you want to reach, and tap Initiate Callback to place your call!
