Zoom provides its users with the option to call into meetings through toll numbers listed in the Zoom client as well as through email invitations if Toll Call is enabled. Participants won’t be able to use the telephone dial-in option in meetings if this setting is disabled, regardless of the fact that the Audio type meeting setting is set to “Telephone.”.

In case you are an admin, you can specify global dial-in countries/regions to determine which for your meetings it is appropriate to use as a default dial-in country/region.

There are certain requirements for enabling or disabling toll call dial-in numbers

• There are three types of accounts: Pro, Business, and Enterprise
• Participants must be able to dial-in with a toll number only if the meeting host is licensed.
• Admins or account owners are assigned the privilege of enabling or disabling toll call dial-in numbers
  Note:
• There will only be a list of selected dial-in numbers available for the user to view and add to the meeting invitation.
