Regional Calling Zones

Availability to leverage RingCentral Regional Calling Zones is included in the following solutions:
  • RingEX: RingEX licenses come with an allotment of outbound minutes per user (exclusions apply), based on the package tier the account is on. These minutes are pooled across the account and can be used for calls placed in the same regional zone as the RingEX country. This means that RingEX license minutes are combined into a pool of minutes which may be used by anyone on the account to make outbound calls within the regional calling zone, at no additional cost. When minutes run out, calls are billed at standard international rates.
  • Global RingEX: Global RingEX licenses come with 1,000 outbound minutes per user (exclusions apply). These minutes are pooled across the account and can be used for calls placed in the same regional zone as the Global RingEX country. This means that Global RingEX license minutes are combined into a pool of minutes which may be used by anyone on the account to make outbound calls within the Global RingEX regional calling zone, at no additional cost. When minutes run out, calls are billed at standard international rates.
