Your forwarding number is the real phone that rings when someone dials your PaidLine number. Changing it is a three-step verified flow — designed to make sure no one else can reroute your calls.

How to change it

  1. Open Dashboard → Your Call Handling (or Your Number Settings → Call Forwarding).
  2. Enter the new forwarding number. Must be a valid U.S. mobile, landline, or VoIP number.
  3. Verify via SMS. PaidLine sends a one-time code to the new number; enter it to confirm ownership.
  4. Save. All future calls forward to the verified number. The change is live within seconds.

What stays the same after a change

  • Your PaidLine number — the one callers dial — is unchanged
  • Caller-ID privacy — your real number stays hidden on both ends
  • Billing accuracy — per-minute charges and earnings work normally
  • Call tracking — every call still appears in your dashboard with full detail

Multiple verified numbers

You can verify multiple forwarding numbers (work phone, personal phone, backup device) and switch between them anytime without re-verification. See Can I change my forwarding number? for the multi-device workflow.

International forwarding

Forwarding to non-U.S. numbers isn't supported yet — see Can I forward to an international number? for the workaround.
