How do you get a Canada virtual phone number?

Claim one from your workspace: pick the number type, add it, and it is live in minutes. A Canada virtual number works like any Canada line: people dial +1 and reach you wherever you are, but it runs over the internet, so it rings your browser, your phone, your team, or an AI agent. No SIM, no hardware, no contract.
Why owning a Canada number beats renting one from a shared pool: on a shared pool your calls are a tiny fraction of the traffic from the same block, so almost none of the number's reputation is yours and calls sign at B attestation. On numbers you own, the whole reputation is your own calling, callbacks reach your team, and calls sign at A attestation with CNAM registered.
Reputation is per number. That is the whole argument for owning the Canada numbers you dial from.

Capabilities

What you can do with a Canada number

Make and take calls

Two-way voice from your browser, desktop, or phone. Inbound calls ring your softphone, your team queue, or an AI agent: your choice, changeable any time.

Use it as your caller ID

Present the number on outbound calls with your business name attached through CNAM, so people recognise you before they answer.

Send and receive texts

Where the country and number type permit SMS, two-way messaging threads into the same shared inbox as everything else.

Point an AI agent at it

Assign an AI voice agent to answer the number (after hours, during peaks, or all the time) with warm transfer to a person when it matters.

Route callbacks properly

The number is yours, so a returned call reaches your team rather than ringing out in a shared pool.

Release it whenever

No contract and no termination fee. Release the number and the monthly rate stops; your remaining wallet balance stays yours.

Registration requirements vary by country

Some national regulators require proof of a local address, a company registration, or an identity document before a number can be assigned. Where Canada imposes that, you will see exactly what is needed before any charge is made, and nothing is billed until the number is live.

Frequently asked questions

Can I get a Canada phone number without living there?
In most cases yes. Some countries require proof of a local address or a registered business before a number can be assigned. That requirement comes from the national regulator, not from us. Where it applies, you will be told exactly which document is needed before you commit to anything.
What does a Canada number cost?
Each number carries a small monthly rate, and calls, texts, and AI minutes are pay-as-you-go from your prepaid wallet at published per-minute rates. There is no seat licence and no monthly platform fee.
Can I receive calls and texts on a Canada number?
Every number is two-way for voice. SMS availability depends on the country and number type; Canada numbers show their exact capabilities in the search results before you claim one.
Can I use it as my caller ID when calling Canada?
Yes, and you should. Presenting a local +1 number materially raises answer rates compared with an unfamiliar international number, and because the number is genuinely yours, anyone who calls it back reaches your team.
Can I keep my existing Canada number instead?
Yes. Numbers port in. Porting keeps your number and its history while moving the service, and typically completes in a few business days once the regulator's paperwork clears.
Can I cancel a Canada number?
Any time. Release it from your workspace and the monthly rate stops immediately. There are no termination fees and no minimum term.
