Overview
Sakari can text-enable your existing landline or Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) phone number in the United States and Canada.
Your team can continue to use your existing company landline or VOIP phone number to send/receive voice calls. All text messages will automatically be routed through Sakari and sent from your existing landline or VOIP phone number.
Landline Texting Pricing
Standard Sakari text messaging rates will apply. The additional phone number is treated as a standard United States or Canada phone number, and standard phone billing rates apply.
