Rent virtual mobile phone numbers
A dedicated virtual mobile phone number allows you to receive*, forward and send online SMS messages. Any received message can be forwarded to one or more recipients. This enables the recipients of your messages, such as customers and employees, to reply to messages. Forwarding can be done via voice message (TTS), e-mail, SMS, fax or HTTPS – it can also be done using different channels simultaneously, e.g. SMS and e-mail.
Rent your own fax number
eCall allows you to receive, forward and send fax message with your own virtual number. All the fax messages you receive are displayed in the log of your eCall account. From there, you can forward them as PDF files to any e-mail address. If you want to keep your existing fax number, you can forward it using Swisscom’s “Call forwarding” service.
