This simplifies the process of setting up a cloud phone system, allowing customers to make and receive calls with payment handled by their local carrier and minimal configuration. Carrier Link is especially helpful for small businesses that want a reliable connection without the hassle of setting up their own hardware.
We are launching this feature in 20 countries with our Carrier Link partners, Tata Communications and Telefonica Global Solutions, who have collaborated with Google Voice to offer services via alternative carriers.
Getting started
- Admins: Contact one of our Carrier Link partners to get started. They will provision the SIP Link licenses and phone numbers, which you can then assign to users, desk phones, auto-attendants, and ring groups. Visit the Help Center to learn more about Carrier Link requirements.
- End users: There is no end user action required.
