A reliable 2nd number is just the start.

Sideline’s suite of features helps you protect your privacy, create a professional identity, prioritize work calls, add team members, and get more done.

2nd Number

Sideline gives you a premium second phone number that works just like your first.

Reliability you can trust.

Our patented technology connects right to your carrier’s network, so you’ll get unrivaled call quality anywhere your phone gets reception. Unlike VoIP services, Sideline gives you the freedom to leave your WiFi network.

Pick your number, build your identity.

Choose a local area code and search for a memorable number. Or use number porting to transfer an existing number from another device or landline.

Texting, calling, and voicemail included.

Texting is unlimited, calling works with your carrier minutes (which are likely unlimited), Sideline voicemail is easy to customize, and everything stays separate from your other number.

Work Texting

Respond faster.

Everybody’s schedules are packed, and a text conversation makes all the difference. Plus, Auto-Reply can send instant responses anytime you can't get to the phone.
