Hotline FAQ

What is a hotline?

A hotline is a direct telephone line that allows organizations to communicate with their customers or employees 24/7. Hotlines are often used by businesses, government agencies, and other organizations that need a quick and easy way to communicate with their constituents.

How do hotlines work?

A hotline works by receiving incoming calls and directing them to the appropriate destination. The term can also refer to the phone number itself.

Live agents typically man hotlines, but many hotline vendors also have automated systems that can provide information or guide calls without human intervention.

From a technical perspective, hotlines are typically set up so that calls are automatically routed to the appropriate destination. This can be done using a private branch exchange (PBX) system, a telephone switching system. The PBX system routes calls based on the number dialed, and it can also be programmed to route calls based on the time of day or the caller's location.
