What is a Local Phone Number?

Local VoIP phone numbers allow users to have a locally recognizable area code that is not necessarily tied to a single physical device. VoIP technology allows for calls to a local phone number that can be located anywhere. 

Used for legitimate business purposes and implemented in a relevant, responsible manner, local VoIP phone numbers can provide value and practical advantages i.e., establishing a regional presence in a new market and protecting the private information of app users.
