A warm transfer is when you send a call to a colleague, but provide them with some context about the call before handing off the call completely. Warm transfers help ensure that your colleague understands the customer's problem and is equipped to solve it before you end your customer interaction. Make a call with the Dialpad, and once you're ready to transfer, you can follow the standard procedure for a warm transfer.

To leave the call, click the "leave call" at the top or at the bottom, keeping the other agent and customer talking.

A cold transfer is when you send a call directly to a colleague. This is relative to a warm transfer, which involves talking to your colleague about the nature of the call before handing it off to them.
