FAQs on call masking solution

What is number masking?

Number masking anonymizes communication between two parties in a voice call by sending calls through an intermediate phone number that acts as a proxy between the two parties. Consider a consumer communicating with a ride-hailing service driver through an app: The customer taps a button to call a proxy phone number, and the proxy instantly and automatically connects to the worker’s number. Neither party can see the other party’s real phone number.

How does number masking work?

With number masking, your customer dials a proxy phone number, and the proxy instantly and automatically connects to your worker’s number. The same process can work in the opposite direction if a worker wants to contact a customer, and number masking works equally well for text messaging. Plivo acts as the proxy when your application uses Plivo’s SMS or Voice API.

What kinds of businesses benefit from number masking?
