Issues with Business Phone number calls
Click on the issue you're having to learn how to resolve it.
I can't make calls because I'm not an agent
- In order for someone to make outgoing calls from the Wix Owner app, they will need to be invited as a Business number Agent.
- When you invite someone to become an agent, they automatically become a "Limited Agent", which can only accept incoming calls.
- In order to be able to make outgoing calls, the agent has to accept the invitation sent to their email. This will make them a "Back-office Manager" of the website, which can call others through the business number. Learn more
I can't make calls when a phone number is not connected
- When inviting an agent, their personal number and email must be linked to make outgoing calls.
- Agents have to be logged in to the Wix Owner app through the same email address which was linked during the earlier invitation.
Calls don't go through when my Caller ID is disabled
When you make a call with the Wix Owner app, your call is directed to the Business Phone Number switchboard before you are connected to another person. This ensures that your business number appears on the other person's incoming caller ID.
In order for Wix to verify the call is coming from your phone, enable the Caller ID feature on your personal device. If you cannot enable the Caller ID from your device, contact your wireless provider for assistance.
Note: International communication is not supported.
I can't receive incoming calls
Try changing the Caller ID (business\caller) option by going to
Business Phone Number in your site's dashboard to manage your settings.
