We’re excited to announce a powerful new feature in Launch Control - Voice Calls.

This enhancement allows you to connect with leads directly through high-quality voice conversations, adding a personal and efficient touch to your lead generation.

What’s New

With the new Voice Call feature, you can:

  • Initiate Voice Calls: Start a call directly from a conversation in your Inbox using the same outbound number.


  • Receive Voice Calls: Get inbound calls to your Launch Control number.

  • Return Missed Calls: Access missed calls quickly through the new Mission Control shortcut.

View Detailed Call Logs: Track and download your call history.

How to Get Started

  1. Complete your 10DLC registration and begin texting.

  2. Contact Support to activate Voice Calls for your account.

    • Activation fee: $50 (billed quarterly) - no minutes included.

  3. Top up your initial 300 minutes, priced according to your plan:

    • Lite - $5

    • Core - $3

    • Pro & Enterprise - $2

  4. You’re ready to go. Track your available minutes through the top-bar counter left to your SMS daily and monthly limits counters and top up anytime by simply clicking "Top Up Minutes".

Using Voice Calls

Initiating a Call:

  • Click the call icon to start a conversation with any verified number in your Inbox.

  • You can also return a missed call directly from the Missed Calls list.

Receiving a Call:

  • When a call comes in, you’ll hear a ringtone and see a notification in the top bar.

  • Choose whether to answer or reject the call directly from your screen.

Missed Calls:

  • Track missed calls through the Mission Control button in the top bar.

  • Click the counter to open the full list in your Inbox, where you can:

    • Call back using the same outbound number.

    • Dismiss individual notifications.

    • View the corresponding SMS conversation.




Adjusting Audio Settings:

During a call or while initiating one:

  • Click the top-bar widget and tap the three dots to open Settings.

  • Select your preferred Speaker and Microphone from the list of available devices.



Top-Ups and Limits

  • Both outgoing and incoming calls count toward your total minutes.


  • Minutes are rounded up to the nearest full minute.

  • If your minutes run out during a call, it will not disconnect, but your balance will show as negative.


  • Once your balance reaches zero, you cannot initiate or receive calls until you top up again.


  • Calls received while your balance is empty will still appear in your Missed Calls list.



Call Logs:

You can access and download your call logs in two ways:

  • For a specific time period, go to Billing → Call Logs.


  • For a specific prospect, open Inbox → Prospect Details




Call Forwarding Settings

To ensure proper call routing:

  • Verify that the correct Call Forwarding Number is saved for each market under Settings Markets & Limits.

  • Adjust your ring timeout to control how long a call rings before forwarding.

Note: Forwarded calls will still appear in your Missed Calls list.


TCPA Compliance and Calling Hours:

In accordance with TCPA regulations, A2P voice calls in the United States are restricted to the hours between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM in the recipient’s local time zone.

Permitted Calling Window:

  • 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM local time, Monday through Sunday.

Why This Matters:

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) protects consumers from receiving marketing calls during early morning and late-night hours. Violations can lead to lawsuits and fines.

Best Practice:

Launch Control automatically determines the recipient’s local time zone using their mailing state, ZIP code, or area code. Outgoing calls outside these hours are automatically disabled.

State-Level Restrictions:

Some states (such as Florida and Maryland) have additional limitations, including earlier calling cutoffs or daily call caps.

Always check for state-specific “mini-TCPA” laws when running multi-state campaigns.

Note: Federal law permits telemarketing calls between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM at the recipient’s location, with no variations for weekends or holidays unless a state law specifies otherwise.
