How do I set up the sipgate app?

Initial setup of the sipgate app - download, login, and basic configuration step by step.

The sipgate app is included free of charge in your Business tariff and offers advanced features for your business telephony, including seamless integration with the sipgate cloud phone system. For additional features, you can upgrade to the paid Business or Premium packages at any time.

Book sipgate app

Log in to your account and navigate to my telephony in the account management area. In the left sidebar of the menu, you will find under Products the option to set up the sipgate app directly. In addition, as an admin you can add the sipgate app for your users in their respective profile.

Here, the packages differ between "Business integrations" and "Premium integrations".

Alternatively, you can also use the sipgate app as a web version. This is a version with a reduced feature scope. In the web version, you can receive and make calls. However, no CRM integrations can be set up. The AI features are also not available in the web version.

Download sipgate App

After you have booked the app, you can download the required file directly from your account. In addition, the respective users automatically receive a download link by email so that they can then download and use the app as well.

In the next step, select your operating system and download the required files. It is also possible to copy a download link.
