# Purchase a DID on SIPTRUNK  Platform

Before you can place or receive calls, you must have at least **one active DID** (or multiple DID numbers) on your [**SIPTRUNK** ](https://www.siptrunk.com)account.

> **Note**\
> If you already have active DID numbers on your SIPTRUNK account, you can skip this section and proceed directly to trunk configuration.

***

### Create Your SIPTRUNK Account

1. Visit the [SIPTRUNK ](https://www.sipturnk.com)website and sign up for an account.
2. After logging in, ensure that voice services (SIP trunking) are enabled for your account.

***

### Purchase DID Numbers

1. In the [SIPTRUN](https://www.sipturnk.com) portal, follow the guide [How to Order a Telephone Number?](https://support.siptrunk.com/hc/en-us/articles/38765340378523-How-to-Order-a-Telephone-Number)  to purchase the DID numbers.

After the DID numbers are successfully purchased and activated, you can proceed with configuring the [SIPTRUN](https://www.sipturnk.com) SIP trunk in PortSIP PBX.

***

### Next Step

* [Configure SIPTRUNK IP Authentication Trunk](/portsip-communications-solution/configuring-sip-trunks/siptrunk-sip-trunk/configuring-siptrunk-ip-authentication-trunk.md)
* [Configure SIPTRUNK Register Authentication Trunk](/portsip-communications-solution/configuring-sip-trunks/siptrunk-sip-trunk/configuring-siptrunk-register-authentication-trunk.md)

This step configures PortSIP PBX to use SIPTRUNK for outbound and inbound calling.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.portsip.com/portsip-communications-solution/configuring-sip-trunks/siptrunk-sip-trunk/purchase-a-did-on-siptrunk-platform.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
