First things first — it's time to get your calls over to Ruby so that we can start answering! There are several ways to forward your phones to us. If your business phone number is hosted by an outside phone provider, we have some tips on how to initiate call-forwarding with most providers. If Ruby is hosting your business number, you’ll be able to forward and un-forward your calls using our app and online portal. 

Forwarding Calls Through Your Phone Provider

Once we’re receiving your calls, we’ll send you a message whenever we’re not able to connect a call to you. All of your messages will be emailed and/or texted to you, and are also accessible in the Activity section of the Ruby app and online portal. Your messages will contain a lot of helpful information about your calls. Not seeing everything you’d like to see in your messages? We can customize them for you!

Reading Your Ruby Messages

Create your Ruby account
You can access your Ruby account 2 ways: from the my.call-ruby.com website and from the Ruby mobile app, available for both iOS and Android. Both give you access to all your call activity, allow you to update your Status when your availability changes, and much more.

Our receptionist billing plans include a set number of "receptionist minutes" for a base monthly fee. If you use more minutes than are included in your plan, never fear! You'll simply be billed at your plan's per-minute rate for any additional minutes you used on your next invoice. 

Learn about our billing plans, how a receptionist minute is calculated, how to keep tabs on your receptionist minute usage, and more.
