Have you ever needed to talk on the phone with two people at the same time? This can be achieved on a VoIP phone with 3-Way Calling. The feature is offered by most VoIP providers and is very simple to use. It can come in handy for both business and personal calls.

How it Works

You can effortlessly use 3-Way Calling on your VoIP phone by following these easy steps:

  1. Dial the first person’s number and wait for him/her to answer.
  2. When that person is on the line, push either the “Flash” or “Hook” button.
  3. Dial the second person’s number and wait for him/her to answer.
  4. When the second person is on the line, push the “Flash” or “Hook” button again.
  5. Now, you can speak freely with both parties on the same line.

What You’ll Need

The 3-Way Calling feature comes standard with many VoIP packages, but not all companies offer it as a basic service. You should check with your provider to see if it is a basic feature or if it is available as an advanced feature for an additional charge. If you are in the process of choosing a service provider, 3-Way Calling may or may not be an important feature on your checklist.

Types Offered

Currently, VoIP companies are only offering 3-Way Calling, not multi-line conference calling. Speaking with more than two people at the same time isn’t an option, though it may be in the future. Some companies offer the 3-Way Calling feature with a basic package, free of charge. Others consider this feature advanced and will only offer it with a subscription fee.
