Use any device or software
Any device can be used to receive calls with your FlyNumber.

Choose from 4 powerful ways to use your FlyNumber
1.) Use FlyNumber SIP to receive calls
- Receive calls with your Bahamas number in any SIP calling app from the app stores — Zoiper, Groundwire, Linphone and more — or on a desk phone. We help you set it up.
- Incoming calls are included in the number's monthly rate.
- Register up to 5 devices, with voicemail built in.
- Bahamas numbers are inbound-only — outbound calling isn't available.
2.) Let an AI voice agent answer your Bahamas calls
Set your Bahamas number to AI voice agent answers and a built-in agent picks up. It answers questions from what you tell it, takes messages and transfers callers to you.
The recorded greeting plays in English. Write the opening line and rules in English and the agent answers in English, switching to the caller's language if they speak another.
$0.10 per minute of AI conversation, billed per second. No monthly fee for the agent.
3.) Forward the Bahamas phone calls to any standard phone number worldwide
- For a low per min rate you can forward the Bahamas calls to any regular phone number in the world.
- You'll see the caller ID of the person calling your Bahamas FlyNumber on the phone you're forwarding to.
- Change the forwarding number anytime via the FlyNumber panel.
- Consider our optional cloud phone system to enhance call forwarding options.
4.) Set the Bahamas number directly to VoIP
- Set the Bahamas number directly to a SIP/VoIP address.
- We'll send the Bahamas calls to a VoIP destination for free (unlimited minutes).
- High level call logs to help diagnose/debug any issues.
- Use any 3rd party VoIP provider or your own PBX system (Asterisk, FreePBX, 3CX, etc.)
- In your FlyNumber panel this is the Forward to SIP / VoIP Address option.
Note
Switch between them any time from your FlyNumber panel. Two more settings live there: Park the Number, which stops the number ringing anywhere (callers hear busy) with no call charges, and the optional cloud phone system, $14.95 a month for voice menus, ring groups and business hours.
