Add-ons

CloudTalk offers additional features that can be purchased on top of your plan.

Common add-ons include:

  • Power Dialer

  • Parallel Dialer

  • Conversation Intelligence (CI)

  • AI Voice Agents

  • Branded Caller ID

Some add-ons may already be included in higher-tier plans. For example, Power Dialer is included in the Expert plan.

Add-ons may be billed as a monthly subscription or based on usage, depending on the feature.

Calling packages

Every CloudTalk plan includes a calling package. This is a bundle of outbound minutes to specific destinations that are included in your subscription.

Your package depends on the region and setup you selected when activating your account.

On Essential and Expert plans, calling is described as unlimited. In practice, this means there is no hard cap, but usage is subject to the Fair Usage Policy (FUP).

There are three main types of calling packages.

🌍 EU Regional package

Covers:

Outbound calls from any EU, UK, Iceland, or Norway number to 30+ European destinations (landlines and mobile).

How coverage works:

You can use a single number to call all covered destinations.

For example, a Czech number can call Germany, France, or Spain within the package. You do not need a separate number for each country.

Important:

The call must originate from a number registered in a covered country.

  • Calling Germany from a Czech number → covered

  • Calling Germany from a US number → not covered (charged from credit)

Included minutes per user per month:

How calling packages work

The domestic rule

Domestic refers to where the call originates, not just the destination.

The domestic rule determines whether a call is covered by your calling package.

A call is considered domestic only if it originates from a number that belongs to the same region as your package.

This means it’s not enough for the destination to be in the same region. The number you are calling from must also match the package region.

Example:

You have an EU package and both EU and US numbers:

  • Calling Germany from a Czech number → covered

  • Calling Germany from a US number → not covered

This rule applies to all package types.

Multiple packages

If you have more than one calling package, CloudTalk automatically applies the most relevant one for each call.

Packages work together, and the system selects the one that best matches the call based on the origin and destination.

For example:

  • Italy number → Italy → covered by Italy domestic package

  • Italy number → France → covered by EU package

You can review how your calls were billed using the Credit Movement export in the Billing section. This allows you to track call activity and understand how your credits are being used.

Your calling package is selected during setup.

To change or add a package, contact your account manager or CloudTalk support.

What is not included in your plan

The following are always charged from credit:

  • Calls outside your package

    If your package covers the EU and you call Brazil, the call is billed from credit.

  • Calls from a number outside your package region

    Even if the destination is covered, the call is not included.

  • Premium and special numbers

    These are never included in any package.

  • Forwarded or redirected calls

    The forwarding leg is always billed from credit.

  • SMS, MMS, and WhatsApp messages

    All messaging is charged separately.

  • Usage beyond Fair Usage Policy limits

    Additional minutes are billed from credit.

  • Per-minute billing

    Calls are rounded up to the nearest minute.
