Business Phone Number: Getting a Phone Number


Important:


Starting June 4, 2025, Business Phone Number will no longer be available for purchase on new sites. If you have an active subscription, or had one in the past, you will still be able to use it and renew the subscription as usual. For an alternative solution, learn about Business Phone Number with Google Voice.


Get a dedicated phone number for your business to connect with your customers in the U.S. and Canada. Select from a range of local and toll-free numbers, then link the new number to your phone and the Wix mobile app.


To use a Business Phone Number, you must comply with Wix's Communication Services Terms of Use. To follow these terms and continue using a Business Phone Number, make sure you're not participating in any of the following:

  • Explicit content

  • Hate speech

  • Unwelcome messages

  • Fraudulent messages

  • Messages related to cannabis

If you are found in breach of these terms, you may have your account blocked.



Step 1 | Purchase a Business Phone Number


Choose from a variety of local and toll-free phone numbers. Then, select a subscription plan and link the chosen number to the number that should receive these business calls (usually, it would be your personal number).


You do not need an additional subscription (such as an upgraded plan) to get a Business Phone Number.
