HelloAirDial: International calling built for professionals, no subscriptions.

No, you don't need a phone number to start using HelloAirDial. You can begin making calls immediately using our public +1 number that's available to all users by default.

However, if you want to use your own phone number as your caller ID, you can verify it for a one-time fee of $0.50. Alternatively, you can purchase a virtual US/Canada number to establish a local presence in those regions.

HelloAirDial allows you to make calls directly from your web browser without needing a SIM card or physical phone. All you need is an internet connection and a device with a web browser.

Simply sign in to your HelloAirDial account, enter the destination phone number, and click to call. The service works entirely through your browser using WebRTC technology, so there's no need for a SIM card, phone line, or any additional hardware.

This makes it perfect for travelers, remote workers, or anyone who needs to make international calls without a local SIM card or phone service.

HelloAirDial is a pay-as-you-use service with no subscriptions or upfront costs. You only pay for the calls you make.

Before making a call, you can use the "Estimate cost" feature to check the per-minute call rate to your destination number. This helps you know exactly how much your call will cost before you dial.

The call amount will be deducted from your account balance once the call ends, based on the actual duration of your call. There are no hidden fees or additional charges.

You have three options for your caller ID when making calls:

1. Use a public +1 number: A public US number (+1) is available to all users by default. This is the quickest option - no setup required, just start calling immediately.
2. Use your own custom caller ID: After verification, you can use your personal phone number as your caller ID. This allows recipients to see your real number when you call. Verification costs $0.50 one-time and ensures your number is authenticated for making calls.
3. Buy a virtual US/Canada number: Purchase a dedicated virtual number for US or Canada to establish a virtual presence in these regions. This is ideal for businesses or professionals who want a local number for their international calling needs.

To use your own caller ID, you need to verify your phone number first. Here's how:

1. Enter your phone number (with country code) and click "Request Verification"
2. You can request a verification code via SMS or an automated call
3. Enter the verification code you received and click on the "Verify" button

On completion, you will be able to use your preferred number as your caller ID.

Verifying your own caller ID costs $0.50 total: $0.30 for OTP delivery via SMS or call, and $0.20 for successful verification. This one-time fee ensures your number is authenticated for making calls.

Some common issues that users have reported are not being able to connect even though they have enough balance. The most common fix for this is to give your phone or PC browser explicit permission to use the microphone. If microphone permission is missing, you will not be able to connect to the destination.

Other issues are generally related to insufficient account balance. Please ensure you have enough account balance to make a call to your destination number. You can use the "Estimate cost" feature to gauge how much balance must be present for the expected duration of your call.

HelloAirDial is designed specifically for international calling to regular phone numbers worldwide. Unlike WhatsApp, Teams, or Zoom which require both parties to have the app installed, HelloAirDial lets you call any phone number globally using your own verified caller ID.

HelloAirDial can call not just mobile numbers but also landlines of organizations like banks and institutions, which is not possible via applications like WhatsApp. This makes it ideal for reaching businesses, government offices, and other entities that may not use messaging apps.

Additionally, not all countries support WhatsApp, and both parties must have the app installed to communicate. HelloAirDial doesn't require an app download and can be used to make calls to over 200+ countries worldwide, making it more accessible and reliable for international communication.

It is also convenient if you are making cold calls to clients in different parts of the world, as you can reach them directly on their phone numbers without requiring them to have any specific app installed.

You pay only for what you use with transparent per-minute rates, with no subscriptions or hidden fees.
