Which Type of Number Suits Your Business?
Local Number
A local number is a telephone number whose digit structure contains geographic information tying it to a particular city or region.
Available codes for South Africa
Johannesburg (10), Cape Town (21), Pretoria (12), and many more.
National Number
Unlike local phone numbers, national numbers are not tied to a particular city or region. Pricing for making phone calls from CloudTalk on a national number is the same as it is for our local numbers. Placing calls into a national CloudTalk phone number should incur the same charges as local numbers. However, each carrier around the world determines its own pricing policies.

Mobile Number
The mobile numbers that CloudTalk offers are not linked to SIM cards and can be used in the same way as local numbers and national numbers.
Available codes for South Africa
60
Toll-Free Number
CloudTalk can also provide toll-free numbers, which are unique in that they confer calling charges on the party receiving the call rather than the party placing it. A toll-free number is identified by the dialing prefix (e.g., 800, 0800, or 1-800).
