FAQ

Setup questions

How long does setup take?

Most owners finish creating an account, connecting the number, setting up call forwarding, and writing their message in about 10 minutes on the shared number. A dedicated number (Pro plan) and US carrier messaging registration can add extra time, so we tell you clearly what applies to your plan.

Do I need to change my business phone number?

No. Customers keep calling the number they already know. Your unanswered calls are forwarded to TextBack, which handles the text-back.

What do I need before I start?

Your business phone number, access to your carrier account or phone system settings for call forwarding, and a few minutes to write your first message.

Do I need technical skills?

No. Setup is account creation, connecting a number in Settings, turning on call forwarding, and typing your message.

Ten minutes from now, no call goes unanswered.
