* In the first step, you should [the sipgate Click2Dial addon for Chrome](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/sipgate-app-click2dial/meocbidedjibjdlhfjgplpogklmbhbko?hl=de\&pli=1) install it and then start it.
* Open the customer manager in Freshsales, select a contact, and click on the contact's phone number.
* A prompt appears in the web browser asking whether the phone number should be opened via an application.
* If the sipgate app is already your preferred application, simply click on **Open sipgate**. This opens the sipgate app and dials the phone number.
* If you do not want to confirm the selection every time, you can enable the option in Google Chrome **Always allow links of this type to open in the associated app** . This will open the sipgate app immediately when you click a phone number.
* On Windows, if another app is suggested instead of the sipgate app, go to **Windows ➔ Default apps ➔ Choose defaults by link type** and set **Tel: sipgate App** as the default.
* On a Mac device, go to **Facetime ➔ Settings ➔ General ➔ Default for calls** and set sipgate app as the default.
