An Obitalk Users Guide How to Port Your Google Voice Number to Anveo (for residential users)

To subscribe to the special Obitalk Package for your Obihai device, click here, and then click the "Click To Get Started" button.

This guide will walk you through Anveo's flow made for residential Obitalk users.

Choose where you are located. If you are in the USA or Canada, you will be asked for E911 information, which is required for USA and Canada.

If you chose USA or Canada as your country, you are required to have E911. But the great thing is that the Obitalk Subscription package includes E911 free of charge!

IMPORTANT: E911 address verification is very sensitive. Please pay special attention to the address formatting. The house number is a separate field from the street name.

Create a new Anveo account (or log in to your existing one). To create a new account, fill in the relevant fields.

If you selected to create a new account, you will need to confirm your email address. Check your email inbox for a confirmation link from Anveo. If you don't see it, be sure to check your Spam or Junk folder.

Click the link to confirm your email address and continue the subscription process.

Anveo's Obitalk Subscription Plans are made specifically for Obitalk users and include everything you expect in a residential phone service. We recommend the "Just Right Package," which includes all the essential features and 1,000 outgoing minutes per month more than enough for most residential users.

If you selected a plan that comes with E911 alerts, you can configure the E911 alerts here. E911 with alerts is an enhanced emergency service that allows you to send notifications to designated contacts, such as family members or business administrators when a 911 call is made. This feature ensures timely awareness of emergency situations, providing an additional layer of safety and response coordination.

Now you need to select whether you want to buy a new number or port your existing number.

To port a number from Google Voice, follow Steps 7a and 7b. Otherwise, select the phone number you wish to buy.

To transfer your Google Voice number to Anveo, you'll need to unlock it first. Here's how:

1. Go to Google Voice Settings: Open a new browser tab and navigate to Google Voice Settings.
2. Find and Unlock Your Number: Locate your Google Voice number and click the 'Unlock' option to make it portable.

Go back to Anveo signup flow. During the porting process, you will receive a text message and a call on your Google Voice number with a code to confirm your ownership of that number. Check your Google Voice Messages tab or answer the call to get the code.

Please review and make sure that everything you have selected and configured is correct. If everything is correct, please proceed to the payment step.

The last step is to add funds to your account. Anveo is a pre-paid service, so all account expenses will be deducted from the funds that you add to your account. You will be redirected to PayPal, where you can pay using a credit or debit card or through a PayPal account.

If you do not have a PayPal account, you can check out as a guest by clicking 'Pay With Credit or Debit Card'.

When you finish, you will receive an email notifying you that your service is now active.

Now the only thing left to do is connect your Obitalk device to Anveo. Please see How To Connect An Obitalk Device To Anveo With SIP Credentials now with video guide article that will guide you on how to connect your Obitalk device to Anveo.
