FAQ

What are local phone numbers and how do they work with SIPcity?

A local number is tied to a specific city or region, making your business feel “around the corner” to callers. With SIPcity, these numbers work just like a regular landline — but run on our modern VoIP network. Customers dial your local number, and calls come straight through to your phone and apps anywhere you choose.

Yes. In most cases you can bring (port) your current number across to SIPcity, so your customers don’t have to update their contact details. We’ll guide you through the Number Porting process and handle the paperwork to make the switch as smooth as possible.

Not at all. You can choose local numbers from cities across Australia, even if your office is elsewhere. It’s a simple way to establish a local presence, build trust, and make it easier (and cheaper) for customers in that area to call you.

A toll-free number gives you a national image, but a local number makes you feel closer to the community. Many customers prefer calling a familiar local prefix, and it shows your business is connected to their region. With SIPcity, you can mix and match both — giving you the best of local trust and national reach.
