Forward your number to Callmate

Callmate works with the number you already have. You forward calls from your carrier or phone system, and callers never see a new number.

Choose when Callmate answers

In the Callmate app, open Lines and choose a mode:

1. Always: Callmate answers every call.
2. Overflow: Callmate answers when your team does not pick up within the number of rings you set.
3. After hours: Callmate answers outside the hours on your schedule.

Set up forwarding

Callmate shows the forwarding number for your line and step by step instructions for your carrier. Most mobile and business carriers use a short dial code, such as *72 followed by the forwarding number. VoIP systems usually have a forwarding or overflow setting in the admin panel.

Place a test call

Call your number from another phone. Callmate answers with your greeting and the call appears in the app within seconds, with a summary when you hang up.
