    Let's take a look at how international calling works.

    2. Click Billing (on the sidebar menu)
    3. Click Calling Credits 
    4. Select Add Value

    Dialpad Tip:

    You won't need to enable int'l calling for any calls you receive to via Dialpad.

    International calling rates

    If you are in an international office calling any other country outside your office designation, be aware there will be an additional cost (this is why you've purchased calling credits).   

    You can always check our current rates by visiting dialpad.com/rates.

    Note:
    Charges do vary between plans. For example, a Ai Voice user can call anywhere in the USA (including AK and HI) without cost. However, users on a Ai Sales plan will be billed.
