Don’t worry about a word, never miss a minute

Tired of the dreaded: “Sorry, I lost you there.” We get it. Consulting calls are crucial, from what you’re saying, to how you’re saying it.

With Rinkel, instead of relying on VoIP tech, which often means relying on a patchy WiFi signal, Rinkel uses mobile networks to connect you with your customers. This means better signal, wider coverage, and no more awkward stutters.

Smart and stylish solution! I've tried a few calling apps, but this one hits the sweet spot between functionality and good design. Worth every penny.

Timothy Hunter

Way more professional than what I had before. I needed a UK number to appeal to UK clients and this app helped me with that main problem I had.. I use the personalised voice mail feature on the weekends which I recommend for anyone that needs the break like me :P

Jessie Rosy

Literally had my business number set up in minutes. So happy to finally find an app for where I'm at with my business atm, everything else on the market was way too expensive or complicated.

Lizzie Kara

No fluff, no confusing menus, just a simple app. Honestly one of the best designed small business tools I’ve found.

Frequently asked questions about business consulting phone numbers

Can I use my Rinkel business number on my mobile and my laptop?

Yes! You can take calls on your mobile and also work from your desk using the web/desktop app, so you’re not glued to one device during call-heavy days.

Can I record calls for meeting notes and action items?

Yes, on plans that include call recording. Consultancy businesses find this exceptionally useful for accuracy and handover notes for colleagues. You can access call recordings via the Rinkel mobile and desktop app, and even download them for offline reflection.

Can I add extra numbers for different areas I want to target?

Definitely! If your consultancy company needs to appear local in many market you can use separate numbers for each one. You can also hand out different numbers to different clients, or for different types of inquiries.

How much does it cost to make calls with Rinkel?

It depends on which plan you choose. On the Essential plan, calls cost 5p/minute. On the Professional and Expert plans, you get unlimited minutes (subject to our Fair Use Policy).

Can I make international calls with Rinkel?

Yes, you can call over 50 international destinations with Rinkel. These include all countries in Europe, the US, Singapore, New Zealand and more. These calls are charged at your standard Rinkel rate, which is 5p per minute for Essential users, and included in your unlimited minutes for Professional and Expert users (subject to our Fair Use Policy).

Does Rinkel work using VoIP?

No, Rinkel uses your existing provider’s network on mobile—which is typically a stronger and more reliable VoIP alternative. You’re not dependent on an internet connection, and instead rely on the thousands of cellular towers dotted across the UK. This means high quality audio across more of the country—what’s not to like?

The only time you’ll be using VoIP technology is when making and taking calls on the My Rinkel desktop portal. Typically, this means you’ll be connected to your home or office WiFi, meaning you’ll be using your chosen internet provider for calls.
