A 010 number for your Rotterdam shop, an 085 for a national look, or an 088 for your whole organisation with multiple departments? With Rinkel, you choose the landline number that fits your business and you're reachable within 3 minutes. On your mobile, your laptop or a desk phone: you decide.
In the Netherlands, we have three types of business landline numbers, plus international numbers for anyone working across the border. Which type suits you depends on your business.
Regional number: for local businesses and entrepreneurs with a local customer base (010, 020, 030).
085 number: for freelancers and SMEs operating right across the country who want a national look.
088 number: for larger organisations with multiple departments or locations.
International number: for businesses doing business abroad.
A regional number is a landline number that starts with the area code of a city or region: 010 for Rotterdam, 020 for Amsterdam, 030 for Utrecht, 040 for Eindhoven, 070 for The Hague, 050 for Groningen — and so on for every region in the Netherlands.
A local business chooses a regional number on purpose, for recognisability. Customers see a familiar local number and are quicker to get in touch. With Rinkel, you've got every area code in the Netherlands in stock.
An 085 number is a national landline number that isn't tied to a region. It works everywhere in the Netherlands, and your customers call at the normal local rate from their own provider: no more expensive than a regional number.
An 085 number is popular with freelancers and small businesses that work right across the Netherlands, or that don't want to be tied to one region. With Rinkel, you pick your 085 number yourself from thousands of available numbers.
An 088 number is a national landline number that's always issued in ranges of 100. So you don't get a single number, but a block, like 088-123 45 00 through to 088-123 45 99. You divide those across departments, locations or staff yourself.
088 numbers are ACM-regulated and meant for larger organisations: think companies with multiple locations, healthcare institutions or franchise chains. The application goes through the ACM (Rinkel sorts that out for you) and activation takes up to three weeks.
An international landline number is a business number with the country code of another country: a +32 for Belgium, +49 for Germany, +34 for Spain. To customers in that country, you look like a local business, and they call at their normal local rate.
You manage an international number from the Netherlands, in the same Rinkel app as your other numbers. All you need is proof of business residency in the country of your choice.
Requesting a landline number with Rinkel is something you do yourself. For an 088 range, it can take up to three weeks because of the ACM procedure. An international number is active within 2-5 working days. With an 085 number and a regional number, you're reachable straight away, and here's how it works:
With Rinkel, your first business number is free, you get 50% off your first month and an extra 10% off when you choose an annual plan! Not happy within 30 days? Then you'll simply get your money back!
A landline number is a number that was traditionally tied to a physical location or phone line, and that starts with a regional area code (010, 020, 030, etc.) or a national business area code (085, 088). These days, a landline number also works without a physical line: with Rinkel, through an app on your mobile, laptop or desk phone.
A landline number (starts with 0 + area code, or 085/088) is recognised as business or location-based. A mobile number (06) is recognised as personal. For business use, a landline number gives a more professional look: customers know they're calling a company, not a personal number.
No. These days, a landline number no longer has to be tied to a physical phone line. With Rinkel, your landline number works through an app on your mobile or laptop. No copper connection, no modem, no cable running to the meter cupboard.
That depends on your audience and your organisation. Work locally? A regional number (010, 020, etc.) is a good fit. Have customers across the country and work solo or in a small team? An 085 number. Have multiple locations or departments? An 088 range. Work internationally? Combine it with an international number.
A business landline number with Rinkel starts at €9 per user per month. Your first number is free with your plan. No installation costs, no multi-year contract, and you get a 30-day money-back guarantee if it turns out not to be for you.
Yes. With number porting, you move your existing landline number to Rinkel free of charge. Whether it's an 085, 088, regional or international number. You stay reachable during the switch, and your customers won't notice a thing.
