Second Business Line App: g100.us Just Works
The fastest way to get a second business line: pick a number from g100.us, choose your country, and start calling, texting, and WhatsApp-ing from it in under a minute — no SIM card, no carrier store, no contract. Calls, SMS, and WhatsApp all run through one dashboard at app.g100.us, and the same number follows you on the g100.us Chrome extension at your desk and the ChatLine mobile app when you're out.
That's the short answer. Here's why it's the right answer, and everything else you'll want to know before you commit a single number to your business.
Why you need a second business line in the first place
Handing out your personal number to clients, leads, vendors, and marketplace buyers is a one-way door. Once it's out, it's out — you can't take it back, mute it after hours, or hand it off when an employee leaves. A dedicated business line fixes that by drawing a clean boundary: work calls and texts land on a number you control, your personal number stays private, and you decide when the line is "on."
The old way to get that boundary meant a second SIM, a second phone, or an enterprise VoIP contract built for 50-seat call centers. None of that fits a freelancer, a solo founder, a small agency, or a remote team that just needs one clean number that works from a browser tab.
What makes g100.us the app for this
g100.us was built specifically around the "second line" use case rather than bolting it onto a bulky enterprise phone system. A few things stand out:
- One number, three channels. Calls, SMS, and WhatsApp all run through the same number and the same inbox — you're not juggling separate apps or separate numbers for texting versus voice versus WhatsApp.
- 100+ countries. Need a US number while you're based in India, the UK, or the UAE? Or a local number in the country you're actually expanding into? g100.us covers both use cases from the same dashboard.
- Browser and mobile, both included. The Chrome extension lets you call and text right from your laptop while you work; the ChatLine app (Android & iOS) keeps you covered when you're away from your desk. Same number, same conversation history, either device.
- Instant activation. Numbers go live within seconds of signup — no porting delay, no waiting on a carrier ticket.
- Flat, low pricing. Plans start around $4/week or $6/month depending on term length, with a simple pay-as-you-go wallet instead of a seat-based enterprise quote.
How it actually works, step by step
1. Choose your number
Head to g100.us, pick a country, and browse available numbers. Because coverage spans 100+ countries, you can grab a US number for a US-facing brand even if you're operating from anywhere else in the world, or a local number to look native in the market you're selling into.
2. Activate instantly
No waiting period. The number is live and ready to receive calls, texts, and OTPs within seconds of purchase — useful when you need to register for a service, verify an account, or start taking client calls the same day.
3. Connect WhatsApp in one click
If your customers live on WhatsApp, connect your new number to it with a one-click setup. No separate WhatsApp Business app juggling, no second device required.
4. Work from wherever you already are
Use the browser extension while you're at your desk answering emails, or switch to the ChatLine mobile app when you step away. Every call and message stays synced to the same dashboard, so nothing gets lost between devices.
Who this is built for
- Freelancers and consultants who want a professional number for client calls without exposing a personal one.
- Small agencies and remote teams that need a shared business line without buying company phones.
- Founders testing new markets who need a local-looking number in a new country before committing to a full office presence.
- Anyone receiving OTPs or verification codes for business accounts who wants those texts separated from their personal phone.
- Sellers and support teams who want calls, SMS, and WhatsApp in one inbox instead of three different apps.
How g100.us compares
Most "second number" options fall into one of two buckets, and both have real tradeoffs worth naming plainly:
- Legacy enterprise VoIP platforms. These tend to be built for large call centers — think per-seat pricing, annual contracts, onboarding calls, and admin panels designed for IT departments, not solo operators. You often pay for features you'll never touch just to unlock the one you need.
- Basic "second number" texting apps. These usually cover calls or SMS but not both — and WhatsApp is rarely part of the package at all. Coverage is often limited to a handful of countries, and there's no real browser workflow, just a phone app.
g100.us sits in the gap between the two: it has the multi-channel depth (calls + SMS + WhatsApp) of an enterprise tool, the instant, contract-free simplicity of a consumer app, and country coverage (100+) that neither category typically matches at this price point. You get one dashboard, flat pricing, and the freedom to use the number from a browser or a phone — without signing anything or talking to a sales rep.
Pricing that scales with you, not against you
Numbers on g100.us start from roughly $4/week or $6/month, with pricing staying largely consistent across countries rather than spiking for "premium" regions. If you know you'll need a number long-term, 3-, 6-, and 12-month terms lock in a dedicated line without forcing you into an annual enterprise contract. Everything runs on a pay-as-you-go wallet — top up, use what you need, and walk away any time. There's no per-seat fee structure to negotiate and no minimum team size.
Getting started
Setting up your second business line takes three steps: create an account at g100.us, pick a number from the country you need, and start calling or texting immediately from the browser extension or the ChatLine app. If WhatsApp is part of your workflow, connect it in the same session. That's the entire setup — no hardware, no porting request, no waiting on approval.
If the goal is a professional number that keeps calls, texts, and WhatsApp in one place, activates instantly, and costs a fraction of a traditional business phone line, g100.us is built for exactly that job.
