Free tool · Click to call

Click to Call Link Generator

Turn your business phone number into a tap-to-call link. Paste it into any button, and a buyer on a phone reaches you in one tap instead of copying your number by hand.

This click to call link generator is free and runs in your browser: your number is never sent or stored.

Need a text message link instead? Use the SMS Link Generator →

Why it matters

A phone number buyers can't tap is a number they skip

A buyer ready to hire wants one tap. When your number is plain text or part of an image, they have to copy it, switch apps and dial. The next company's call button is one tap away.

01

One tap, no friction

A tel: link opens the phone's dialer with your number already filled in. The buyer taps Call. That's the whole process.

02

Works on every phone

Click to call links are a web standard that iPhone and Android both support. On a computer, the link hands your number to a calling app if one is set up.

03

Calls you can measure

A call that starts with a tap can be counted as a lead in Google Analytics. A number typed by hand never shows up in your reports.

The click to call problem, and the two that follow it

M. Curtis McCoy walks through the chain most business owners find one problem at a time: a phone number buyers can't tap, a website that blocks AI assistants, and no structured data telling them who you are. This tool fixes the first one.

Standard: the tel: link format is defined in RFC 3966 →

Why it works: McCoy's Law of Conversion Optimization →

Where to put it

Where your click to call button belongs

Copy your link from the click to call link generator above. In Elementor, select a Button widget and paste the Link only output into its Link field. In WordPress blocks, Wix, Squarespace or Shopify, paste it wherever the editor asks for a link.

01

Mobile header

Top right on every page. Buyers expect to find a way to reach you there, so put the button where they already look.

02

After every service section

When a buyer finishes reading about a service, the next step should be one tap away, not a scroll back to the top.

03

Everywhere your number appears

Contact page, footer and service area pages. If a buyer can see your number, they should be able to tap it.

Common mistakes

Four mistakes that cost calls

The number is inside an image

Text inside a picture can't be tapped, and Google and AI assistants can't read it. Put the number on the page as real text.

The country code is missing

Write the full number with +1, like tel:+19705550123. That format works for every US phone and calling app.

A Call button opens a form

A button labeled Call that opens a contact form breaks the buyer's expectation. Label every button for exactly what it does.

Different numbers on different pages

Use one number on your website, Google Business Profile and directories. Mismatched numbers make it harder for Google and AI assistants to confirm who you are.

FAQ

Click to call link generator: common questions

What is a click to call link?

A link that starts with tel: followed by a phone number, like tel:+19705550123. Tapping it on a phone opens the dialer with the number filled in.

How do I make my phone number clickable on my website?

Enter your number in the click to call link generator above, copy the Link only output and paste it into the Link field of a button or text link. For plain HTML, copy the Text link output instead.

Why isn't my phone number clickable on mobile?

Usually the number is plain text, sits inside an image, or the link is missing the tel: prefix. Some phones guess and link it anyway, but you can't count on that.

Does a click to call link work on a computer?

It opens whatever calling app the computer has set up, such as FaceTime on a Mac. If none is set up, nothing happens, so keep your number visible as text next to the button.

Should I add a text message link too?

Yes. Some buyers can't talk when they find you. Put a call button and a text button side by side and let them choose.

Is this click to call link generator free?

Yes. It runs entirely in your browser, and your number is never sent to our server or saved anywhere.
