Wealthbox provides several ways to log phone calls—both outbound and inbound—to help you track your contacts' communication history. Below are the options and best practices.


Outbound Call Logging with Click-to-Call

Wealthbox offers a Click-to-Call feature that allows you to initiate outbound calls directly from the platform.

How to Set Up Click-to-Call: See  How do I enable the Click-to-Call feature, and how does it work?

Once configured:

    • Calls placed using Click-to-Call will automatically log to the contact’s Activity Stream.

    • These calls appear as "Phone Call" activities.

    • Clicking on the phone call entry lets you add notes about the conversation.


Inbound Call Logging

Wealthbox does not natively support auto-logging inbound calls, but you can use third-party integrations to bridge this gap.

Manual Call Logging (Inbound & Outbound)

You can also log all calls, inbound and outbound, by adding a note to the applicable contact record and tagging the note "Phone call."

Note: Only calls made using Click-to-Call will appear as “Phone Call” activities in the system. There is no way to create a phone call activity type manually.


Common questions and best practices

Best Practice: Use Note Templates
