Are your team members using their personal phone numbers for work? You can now get business phone numbers for everyone at your company!

Invite your colleagues and they'll be able to get their business phone numbers in seconds. And they can also get access to existing company-owned phone numbers.

How to invite specific teammates to OpenPhone

1. Click on Invite your team at the bottom of the Team section in your OpenPhone inbox. This option is also available by clicking on Invite a member in the Members section.

2. Enter your colleague's work email (you can even enter multiple teammates' email addresses separated by commas) and select Add to list.

3. Choose an initial phone assignment or give your newly invited team member the option to select a new number.

4. Select the appropriate workspace role for them:

  • Owner(someone with full superpower access to the organization)
  • Admin (can invite other members + manages company billing)
  • Member (manages their own account)

5. Click Assign a New Number or Share Existing to give them access to an existing phone number in your account.

🌟 Please note: Only workspace owners have the option to add a new teammate and make them a workspace owner. Additionally, only workspace owners and admins can add a new teammate as an admin. Read this guide to learn more about workspace roles and permissions. Here's what your team members will need to do when they're invited.
  1. Get an invitation email from OpenPhone.

  2. Click Accept Invitation.

  3. They'll be guided through the OpenPhone onboarding process. This will include picking their phone number (or gaining access to the number you've invited them to) and creating an account. No need to worry about billing - that's already taken care of.

  4. That's it! They'll receive a link to install the mobile app to use their OpenPhone number.

How to claim your team's email domain

You can also claim your team's email domain so that any of your teammates can self-service join your team's workspace.

Claim your email domain by visiting the Members section of your workspace settings. Then enter in an email address based on your team's domain.
