FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is pay-per-call software?

It runs the business of selling phone calls. It gives you tracking numbers, qualifies callers with an IVR, routes each call to a buyer and records what each call earned. Some platforms also run live auctions, where buyers bid on each call.

What is the best pay-per-call software?

There isn't one answer. It depends on how you sell calls, how you want to start and what you need to pay for. Compare the topics that matter to you in the table, then check each company's own site, since plans change. If you run your own Google Ads and sell calls to buyers, look at CallMatrix: Google Ads sync and conversion upload are built in, and Launch includes ping-post auctions with no monthly fee.

Which pay-per-call platforms have real-time bidding?

CallGrid: The live double-blind auction, with ping and post, is on its Real-Time Bidding plan. CallScaler: Real-time bidding, pinging several buyers at once, is included on its Pay-Per-Call plan and an add-on on its Call Tracking plan.

AboutContactPrivacy PolicyTerms of Service

CallMatrix is a pay-per-call routing and monetization platform. It is built for performance marketers, lead gen agencies and call networks in the United States.

Callers answer a short IVR first. Buyers then bid on each call in a real-time ping-post auction, and the best bid wins.

CallMatrix uploads each conversion back to Google Ads, so you can see which clicks turned into paid calls.

Based in the US, CallMatrix serves insurance, legal services, home services, healthcare, financial services and education.
