Billing

We measure “receptionist minutes” as the duration our agents spend handling your call, for example speaking with the caller or time spent contacting you or your employees during a transfer. We do not count time spent on admin after the call, for example when writing notes about the call to email to you.

All incoming and outgoing calls through the system are rounded up to the nearest minute for purposes of billing, for example a 50 second call will be billed as one full minute.

All use of our services including displayed pricing are based on the account being enrolled in autopay from a credit or debit card or direct bank draft. Once a payment is used, it may be assumed to be used for future due invoices. Accounts that fail autopay may be tried by our payment processor on subsequent dates following the failure. Any changes to autopay settings can be requested by email to our support team or changed by clicking the option on any of your invoices. Any request to be removed from autopay could result in termination of the service or adjusted fees.
