Bring your own carrier

Bring your own carrier and keep your phone numbers

Moving to a new calling platform usually means porting your numbers and leaving your carrier. With Ringee you can skip both. Connect your carrier or PBX as a SIP extension and your numbers keep working where they are, with Ringee’s dialer and call history on top.

Ringee registers to your PBX as an extension, using the SIP settings you enter. Your reps call from the browser through your carrier, and the PBX presents the caller ID you already use. Calls to your numbers can be routed into Ringee to a teammate, a ring group, an extension or a desk phone.

What you get when you bring your carrier

Outbound through your carrier

Reps dial from the Ringee browser dialer and the call leaves through your PBX, which presents the caller ID configured for the extension.

Inbound routing in Ringee

Route calls to your numbers to a teammate, a ring group, an internal extension or a desk phone registered in Ringee.

Your numbers, one route each

Attach the numbers your PBX handles to the extension that carries them, and give each number its own inbound route.

Registration status

Ringee shows whether the extension is registered with your PBX, so a wrong password or host shows up before anyone tries to call.

Credentials handled for you

You enter only your carrier’s settings. Ringee encrypts the SIP password and configures everything else on its side.

Only Ringee can dial your PBX

Every outbound call to your carrier must carry a short-lived token signed by Ringee, so nobody else can route calls through your trunk.

Connect your carrier in three steps

1
Create the extension
In your PBX or carrier portal, create a SIP extension (username, password and host) for Ringee.
2
Enter it in Ringee
Add the carrier settings in your organization, attach the numbers that extension handles, and watch it register.
3
Call and route
Reps start calling from the browser dialer, and you choose where calls to each number ring in Ringee.

Bring your own carrier or port your numbers?

Both put your numbers in Ringee. They differ in who keeps the numbers and what changes on day one.

	Bring your own carrier	Port your numbers
Where the numbers live	Stay with your current carrier	Move to the new provider
Contract and rates	Keep your carrier contract and rates	Replaced by the new provider’s
Time to go live	As soon as the SIP extension registers	Days to weeks, depending on the carriers
Going back	Disconnect the extension	Port the numbers out again
Caller ID	The one your PBX already presents	The ported number

What bringing your carrier costs

Bring your own carrier is part of the Organization plan: $20/month for the whole organization, with unlimited users.

Your carrier keeps billing the phone minutes under your current contract. Ringee bills its own per-call usage from workspace credit, like any other call.

Frequently asked questions

What does bring your own carrier (BYOC) mean?

BYOC means you keep your existing phone carrier and numbers and connect them to a new calling platform, instead of porting the numbers to that platform. In Ringee you connect your carrier or PBX as a SIP extension.

Do I have to port my numbers to Ringee?

No. With BYOC your numbers stay with your carrier. You can also buy new numbers in Ringee or verify a number you own as a caller ID — whichever fits each number.

Which carriers and PBXs work?

Any carrier or PBX that lets you create a SIP extension that registers with a username and password. Ringee registers to it like a desk phone would.

What caller ID do people see?

The caller ID your PBX presents for that extension. Ringee does not add its own identity to calls that go out through your carrier.

Which plan do I need?

Bring your own carrier is available to organizations on the Organization plan, $20/month with unlimited users.
