FAQ’s
Can I get SMS on my Philadelphia virtual phone number?
Yes, your Philadelphia FlyNumber can receive SMS — incoming texts are forwarded to your email for a small per-segment fee. You can also send personal, person-to-person texts to numbers outside the US — though delivery depends on the receiving carrier accepting texts from US numbers. Texting US numbers is coming soon and will run as A2P, the registered route US carriers require. Full list of SMS enabled numbers here.
Can I use my Philadelphia virtual number for 2FA or other verification services?
This really depends on the company/service sending the SMS to the FlyNumber; it's up to them to actually send the text. We can't guarantee 2FA or short code SMS will work. Texts from regular mobile phones should work fine though.
Can I use a FlyNumber to support my Philadelphia-based business's local presence?
Absolutely! With FlyNumber, you can choose a local Philadelphia phone number, allowing you to maintain a local presence regardless of where you or your business is physically located. This is perfect for businesses looking to connect with Philly's vibrant communities, from Center City to Manayunk.
How can I route calls from my Philadelphia FlyNumber based on the time of day to cater to my business hours?
You can customize your FlyNumber to route incoming calls based on the day and time. For instance, if your business operates during typical market hours at the Reading Terminal Market, you can set the phone system to forward calls to your mobile during business hours and to voicemail after hours, all automatically.
Is it possible to integrate a FlyNumber with VoIP systems like Asterisk if my tech team is located in Philadelphia?
Yes, FlyNumber seamlessly integrates with popular VoIP solutions such as Asterisk, 3CX, FreePBX, and FreeSwitch. This feature is ideal for tech-savvy teams in Philly, enabling high flexibility and functionality in managing communications, whether they're in a coworking space in University City or a traditional office downtown.
Can I use the call menu feature on my Philadelphia FlyNumber to direct customers to different departments within my company?
Definitely! The call menu feature allows your callers to self-select their intended department. For example, callers can press 1 for Sales or 2 for Support, mirroring the organized structure of Philly's own street grid system. This helps streamline caller experience and improves efficiency.
Will my Philadelphia FlyNumber allow me to save voicemail and call recordings to the cloud?
Yes, all your call interactions, including voicemails, greetings, and recordings, can be automatically saved to the cloud with FlyNumber. This feature means you won’t miss out on important communications, offering peace of mind much like the reliable presence of the Liberty Bell.
If I have multiple businesses in different neighborhoods of Philadelphia, can I manage different FlyNumbers under one account?
Of course! FlyNumber allows you to manage multiple numbers under a single account, making it easier to handle operations whether your ventures are spread from South Philly to Fishtown. Each number can have its own distinct settings and routing configurations, effectively catering to the unique needs of each location.
