Pricing & Cost FAQs

How much does CallTrackingMetrics cost?

We offer three tiers of subscription pricing, with annual pricing starting at $65, $149, and $274 per month. The subscription fee is the base rate to gain access to the software and the features available on each plan. The total cost to customers includes “usage” based on minutes of conversations and numbers purchased. For Enterprise customers, we offer an additional plan starting at $1,999/month.

Are phone numbers and minutes included with the plans?

Unlike some other call tracking solutions, our plans do not come with any included numbers or minutes. CallTrackingMetrics gives you the freedom to purchase only the numbers you need and are billed only for the minutes you’ve used. This approach puts you in control of your budget and allows a more efficient solution that saves our customers money every day.

How much does call recording cost?

Call recording is included for free on all plans and is one of the core functions of our software. For advanced call recording features such as encryption, there is an additional charge starting at $0.004 per minute.

Do you offer any discounts or promotions?

Both new and existing customers can save money with CTM in a variety of ways. We always waive the first month’s subscription fee so you can get up and running without upfront costs. We also help you save with discount packs for annual usage and discounts for prepaid accounts. Check out our current promotions or talk to your account executive for even more ways to save.

Billing FAQs

How will I be billed?

A credit card is used to fund available balances for ongoing usage fees, number purchases, and premium add-on features. You decide on a balance and when the balance falls below the amount you set, we charge your credit card to refill your available balance and ensure no service disruptions. For example, if you set your minimum balance to $10 when your account gets to this amount it will automatically recharge to your initial balance of $50.

Are credit cards the only accepted payment method?

Most of our customers prefer to fund their accounts with a credit card. However, we also offer invoicing and bank transfers for accounts meeting specified criteria. Sales and finance team members can provide additional information on account eligibility and terms.

How does billing work for marketing agencies and their clients?

Agency accounts are charged following the same method described in the ‘How will I be billed?’ section above. However, for agencies’ clients (sub-accounts) we provide options to bill each sub-account directly or through the agency account. We also offer customizable options for price markups and payment management through our Stripe integration.

Are we under any type of contract?

We offer our customers flexibility with month-to-month engagements and no contracts. However, we also offer annual commitments at a discounted rate for those customers interested in a longer-term contract.

Account Management FAQs

Is it possible to get a demo or preview of the software before signing up?

Yes! We offer live demos with our sales team. Just book a demo and our team will walk you through the most relevant features tailored specifically to your needs and questions.

How do I sign up?

You can easily sign up online for a CallTrackingMetrics plan. First, select a plan, then complete a simple checkout process. You’ll need to provide and verify your email address, provide a credit card number for an initial payment, and give some basic account information.

Can I change plans?

Absolutely! We want to be sure each of our customers has the plan that best meets their unique needs. You can change plans at any time–right within the software. Upgrade to enjoy the benefits of plan-specific features or integrations. In between campaigns? Downgrade and save on subscription fees while waiting to ramp back up.

What if I want to end my service?

Our team works diligently to deliver the best experience and solution to our customers so you never want to cancel. However, you are able to cancel at any time directly within the software. Need to keep your numbers? There’s no additional fee to port numbers away to a new provider.

Integrations and Development Support FAQs

Does CTM integrate with Salesforce?

Yes! Our integration with Salesforce is one of our most popular integrations. This seamless integration not only syncs valuable data between platforms but also allows sales teams to use our softphone embedded directly in Salesforce’s UI. This lets teams eliminate wasted time switching tools between calls.

Will CTM integrate with my current tools and tech stack?

Yes, most likely! We have 40+ integrations, an open API, and developer-led office hours weekly. This allows us to plug into most martech stacks so you can keep using your favorite tools. Our most popular integrations include Salesforce, HubSpot, Google Analytics, Google Ads, Drift, and Zoom.

Do you have an API?

Yes, we do have an API with documentation and live support for development teams looking to create customized solutions. Through our webhooks, lambda functions, and more, we give teams resources to build on our already robust platform.

Tracking Number FAQs

What is a tracking number?

A tracking number is a phone number used by businesses to track and attribute leads, conversions, and other crucial data to help build and optimize marketing campaigns. A tracking number can be used in traditional advertising or in conjunction with dynamic number insertion (DNI) for actionable data.

How many tracking numbers will I need?

We suggest that our customers have at least one tracking number per static source you want to track. For example, a number for each radio campaign, your Google My Business listing, and a newspaper ad. For tracking numbers used with DNI, we recommend one phone number per 20 visitors a day. For example, if your Google Ads campaign drives 1,000 visitors to your site per day, you’ll want 50 tracking numbers for that source.

How much do tracking numbers cost?

The cost depends on the country where it will be used. In the United States, prices start at $2.00/month for local numbers and $3/month for toll-free numbers. You can find a full list of prices on our plans and pricing page.

Can I keep the numbers I already have?

You can absolutely keep them and start using them with our features like call recording, conversation analytics, keyword spotting, and more to get the data you need. When you bring an existing number over it’s called porting. It takes about two to four weeks to complete for U.S. numbers with no service disruption during the transfer.

Can I buy a vanity number?

Yes, you can! CTM has a numbers management team to help acquire vanity numbers. Prices vary based on the specific number. We suggest discussing it with our sales team prior to signing up to facilitate the process. You can also request vanity numbers directly from the app after logging in.

Key Features and Functionality FAQs

Does CTM offer a smart dialer?

Our Sales Engage plan includes a smart dialer that provides automated outbound dialing technology to maximize productivity & conversions. Smart dialer functionality is included in the subscription cost of the Sales Engage plan.

How does call recording work?

Call recordings, included with your plan, allow you to listen to previously held calls for buyer and campaign insights as well as training opportunities. By default, all inbound calls are recorded. Admins can control which tracking numbers have recordings enabled, and can also enable recording for outbound calls. You can access all recordings in CTM, or download and share with encrypted links.

How does call forwarding work?

You can forward calls to cell phones, desk phones, or customized CTM queues with our tracking numbers. Your customers will view a number on an ad or website and when they call it they will be routed to the most relevant person or team based on the settings you select.
