voipGATE S.A.

voipGATE (www.voipgate.com) is proud to announce its support of the newly created Top Level Domain .tel.

Thanks to strong cooperation with Telnic the .tel domain names Registry, the upcoming version of voipGATE’s softphone will integrate all the .tel Directory services and functionalities. Ease-of-access and contact management options provided by any .tel name will become instantly available to customers of the Luxembourg-based Voice-Over IP operator.

Flexibility

voipGATE services are specifically dedicated to people always on the move, travelling from one country to the next, looking for an easy and fast way to be reachable and reach others. Integrating the .tel functionalities within our softphone interface will be a strong step forward, allowing people to store all their contacts’ details in one place, with phone calls only one-click away. Any voipGATE customer holding a .tel domain name can activate the functionality from its voipGATE softphone and will be able to manage and use its .tel information directly inside our softphone interface.

Mobility

The whole range of VoipGATE services will benefit from the .tel functionnality and bring a more tailored experience to the end-user. If the person you are trying to reach through its .tel name is in a foreign country, the softphone will immediately detect this and connect you appropriately. This is one of the reasons why we are so glad that, much as voipGATE services, .tel is available from many devices, from cellphones to desktop PCs.

What is a .tel?

The .tel allows you to store, publish and update online all your contact information and keywords under your unique domain name, without the need for a website.  Simple, fast and accessible from any device (from a PC to a mobile phone), .tel domains allow businesses and individuals to take full control over how and where people reach them. While the way .tel works does not allow the Customer to specify its own web site or name servers, it is a wonderful way to be reachable by friends or customers alike with unprecendented ease-of-use.

A .tel domain name enables global discoverability in the first ‘live’, next-generation contacts directory, with keywords enhancing search engine optimization.

• integration of any and all means of communication (i.e. Phone numbers, IM, VOIP, email, social media)
• real-time publishing of your contact information on the internet
• full ownership of your published data
• protection of your private data, only viewable by people you authorize
• simple structured navigation to easily reach the most relevant information
• high speed global access optimized for mobile devices
• multi-language, search engine-friendly structured information and keywords

Take control thanks to .tel

While your phone number, your email or address may change, your .tel remains the same. You can update and customize it so that anyone who knows your .tel name can reach you. tel service also lets users decide how much contact information they want to share and who they want to share it with. Unlike a phone book or a business card that can be outdated the minute someone moves or changes jobs, a .tel identity can be updated anytime.

A .tel Domain Name can display everything from a home or office phone number, to a mobile phone, email, Facebook, Twitter or any of the increasing number of ways people choose to stay in touch. (use the pict here maybe). The Domain name can also map your location, a plus for businesses that can direct customers straight to their door with nothing more than a .tel name.
