Add Call Credits to Your Dialpad Office

  • Updated

While calls to your local Dialpad numbers are free to you on a Ai Voicelicense, certain types of calls do incur additional charges:

  • Outbound international calls 
  • Inbound calls to any of your toll-free lines
  • Outbound faxes

These calls can be placed with Call Credits, which are purchased by your company or office Admins.

In addition to the above, users on Ai Contact Center and Ai Sales licenses are also charged per-minute rates for inbound and outbound local calls.

Adding calling credits to your account is available on Standard plans and above.

Let's learn more about how to add credits, check your balance, view your usage, and confirm your credit payment.

International calls are charged at a set rate based on the caller's country location. Inbound calls to US and Canada toll-free numbers are charged to you at $0.02 USD per minute.

Confirm Credit Card

Some accounts may need to confirm a credit card before calling credits can be added. We do this as an added security step and to mitigate fraudulent charges on your account.

Admins will see the prompt after selecting a dollar value from the Add Value menu

We'll post a small charge on your credit card and will ask you to confirm the amount. Simply log into your account to verify and enter the amount in Dialpad. Once verified, you'll be able to add more calling credits whenever you need or even set up automatic recharges.
