Managing and adding licenses for your team in Dialpad is easy. Licenses can be purchased from the Company Settings, Billing menu, or Office Settings. When purchasing licenses, you can choose the number of licenses or add-ons needed and review the payment summary before confirming the purchase. To save money, you can remove licenses that are no longer needed from the Office Settings. However, if you are on a contracted plan, you need to contact your Customer Success Manager for assistance. Licenses scheduled for removal can be restored before the end of the billing cycle without incurring additional charges.
Managing and adding licenses for your team is a breeze.Once a license is purchased, you can:
- Add user accounts
- Add room phones
- Adding numbers for Shared Lines such as a Department or Contact Center
- Add a fax number
Remember that we charge for licenses as they're purchased, even if they're inactive and unassigned.
Licenses can be purchased during a billing cycle and prorated to the next one.
You can only create user accounts for as many licenses as you have available, so make sure you don't over-invite team members.
This article covers Dialpad licensing; if you want to purchase Dialpad Meetings licenses, please review this Help Center article.
Let's take a look at managing licenses in Dialpad.
Purchase licenses
Licenses can be purchased in two places from your Admin Settings
- From Company Settings
- From the Billing menu
- From Office settings
Let's look at how each method works.
For our contracted customers, extra licenses follow your current agreement. If you're on a contract plan, please contact your Customer Success Manager prior to purchasing new licenses.

Remove licenses
Save your company money by removing licenses that are no longer needed.
For companies who are not on a contracted (invoiced) plan, Office admins can schedule license removals from their Admin Settings.
If you are on a contracted plan, you won't see this option, so please contact your Customer Success Manager for assistance.
To remove licenses, head to your Admin Settings from Dialpad.com

This can vary depending on your company's plan and contract type — please contact your Customer Success Manager if you have any questions.
Restore licenses scheduled for removal
Since licenses scheduled for removal are only removed at the end of the current billing cycle, you can cancel the removal and store these licenses as available (unless stated otherwise in your contract terms).
To restore licenses, head to your Admin Settings from Dialpad.com
- Select Billing
- Select Purchase License
- Enter the number of licenses or add-ons less than or equal to the licenses scheduled for removal, then select Next
- Review your purchase and Confirm
Restoring these licenses does not incur additional charges or fees, as they must still be removed.
