Shield Your Real Number on Craigslist
Follow a handful of fast steps to mask your number and screen callers, all on clear pay as you go pricing.
Get a Cheap Virtual Number
Choose an inexpensive local or toll-free number for the area you are posting in. Your own line stays private, and a local number usually pulls in more responses.
Put It on Your Listing
Display the virtual number in place of your real contact. After the item sells, replace the number or simply turn it off.
Screen and Record
Rely on Intercalling AI screening to filter out spam and questionable callers. Automatic recordings and transcripts keep your key conversations documented and accurate.
Listing Copy Examples
A local number comes across as more credible. Here is some text you can paste right into your Craigslist ad:
How Intercalling Helps Your Craigslist Sales
Everything you need to keep your real contact private and manage buyers without spending too much.
Cheap Private Numbers
Get budget friendly local or toll-free numbers for each listing. Once a sale closes, swap the number or switch it off.
Calls in the Browser
Answer calls directly in Chrome, Safari, or Firefox with nothing to install. Great for quick replies while your real number stays out of view.
AI Screening and Copilot
Let AI handle caller screening and spam blocking, or have the copilot suggest responses while you speak with buyers.
Flexible Forwarding
Send calls to any phone or take them in your browser, and toggle forwarding on or off whenever you like.
Only Pay When Active
Create a number in seconds and keep it live only for as long as the ad runs. Once you remove the listing, your exposure stops.
Private and Secure
Each call runs over encrypted WebRTC across enterprise grade carriers, so your personal number is never revealed.
Frequently Asked Questions
