A second number for your side hustle
A side hustle brings customers, and customers want a number to call. Putting your personal mobile on a listing or a business card means work follows you everywhere. A second UK number - mobile or landline - gives your side business its own line in the app on your existing phone: customers reach you on it, you look the part, and you switch it to quiet when you clock off. No second handset to carry.
Keep the side hustle off your personal line
Whether you're selling handmade goods, doing weekend trade work, tutoring or reselling, the moment your personal number is out there it's out there for good - late-night enquiries, chasers, and marketing lists included. A separate number draws a clean line between your side income and your personal life, so a growing hustle doesn't cost you your evenings.
How it works
- One app, a business line. Add a second UK number alongside your personal one on the phone you already own - nothing extra to buy or charge.
- Mobile or landline. Pick a mobile number, or a UK landline that reads as an established local business.
- Switch off when you clock off. Quiet Hours silences the number on a schedule (say evenings and Sundays) or instantly, so you're not on call around the clock. You can still make outgoing calls.
- Never miss the good ones. Add call forwarding to send business calls to another phone when you can't answer in the app - an optional paid add-on (see pricing).
- Your personal number stays private. Customers see your side-hustle number when you call or text, never your real one.
Look the part without a second phone
A dedicated number makes a side hustle feel like a proper business - to customers and to you. A UK landline in particular reads as settled and local, which can matter when someone's deciding whether to book. And because it all lives in the same app, you keep business messages in one place, separate from your personal chats, without carrying a second device.
Growing? Add more numbers
If the side hustle takes off, you can hold more than one number - keep, say, a selling line and a bookings line apart, each billed on its own. Everything stays in the one app, so scaling up doesn't mean juggling handsets.
Common questions
Can I get a separate number for my side business?
Yes. nothanumber gives you a second UK number - mobile or landline - in the app on the phone you already own, so side-hustle calls and texts stay separate from your personal line, with no second SIM or second handset.
Can I make my side-hustle number go quiet after hours?
Yes. Quiet Hours silences the number on a repeating schedule or on demand, so customers reach you during business hours and your evenings stay yours. Outgoing calls always still work.
Can a side-hustle number look more professional?
You can choose a UK landline number, which many customers read as an established local business, or a mobile number - either way it is separate from your personal one and yours to hand out.
