Some packages let you buy more than one Paytia number and send each to a different destination — useful when teams need their own line.
If you want to enable payments on multiple customer lines, you can purchase additional Paytia numbers and route them to different destinations in your organization. This article explains how.
Why you may require multiple Paytia numbers
