If your goal is spend less talk more, Vox Voice gives you reliable, cost‑effective options — from the mobile softphone Vobi to the cordless Supafone that runs over your Vox Fibre
The power of Voice
Why choose voice over a long email chain? Spoken conversations close deals faster, reduce misunderstandings and build rapport — especially in business settings where tone and nuance matter. For B2B teams, a short call can remove days of back-and-forth and accelerate decision-making. In other words: spend less time typing, talk more to get results — and Vox makes that simple.
Vobi — mobile softphone
Vobi is Vox’s app-based softphone that uses VoIP to call any South African number at reduced rates. Unlike typical messaging apps that only reach users on the same platform, Vobi connects to regular landlines and mobile networks — ideal for businesses needing wide reach without high costs.
Key benefits
- Free download: Available on Google Play and the Apple App Store.
- Fast setup: Buy online and have your account ready in minutes — ideal for small sites and remote staff.
- Local rates: Low call costs across all South African networks — perfect for businesses with local customers and suppliers.
- Flexible billing: Choose per-minute billing or an uncapped plan. Per-minute option costs R29 per month (≈ R0.46 per minute); Unlimited Calling is R171 per month for calls to any local SA number. Month‑to‑month options mean you’re not locked into long contracts.
- Roaming-friendly: Make calls to SA numbers while overseas at local SA rates — avoid expensive roaming charges.
How Vobi works for business
- Reach customers on any number, not just other app users.
- Use a single business account across staff devices.
- Control costs with plan choice: pay per minute or pick the unlimited plan for predictable billing.
Quick setup steps
- Download Vobi from your device’s app store.
- Buy a Vox Vobi service online and complete RICA (ID and proof of address).
- Log in and start calling.
Note on compliance and number porting
RICA verification is required to activate Vobi (you’ll need identity and proof‑of‑address documents). If you already have business numbers, you can port them to Vox to keep continuity for customers.
