Phone communication between customer and expert
How it works
VOIP is additional paid module available in Expert template and allowing communication between a customer and Expert using a regular phone call.
Here is how it works:
- A customer can open a profile of any expert allowing incoming phone calls
- The customer would see phone number a PIN code
- Once Phone call is made the customer would hear a voice message and request to enter PIN code
- Based on PIN code the system will route call to appropriate Expert
- If Expert accepts the call VOIP will route customer and expert to talk together and charge customer per-minute fee
Setup requirements
- Register account at https://voip.ms/ service
- Purchase DID number there. It could be either a regular phone number or toll-free number. Multiple numbers can be purchased as well.
- Download following voice files and record your own to use with VOIP.
