Systems and methods for enabling users to connect to conference calls. The system can include a conference line on user equipment (UE) to enable users to connect to a dedicated conference line. The conference line can include a conference line number, a host code, and/or a participant code. The conference line can provide a graphical user interface (GUI) to enable the user to choose how to connect to the conference bridge—i.e., using the host code or participant code. The system can also include conference contacts that enable the user to connect to external conference bridges. The conference contacts can include a conference number, a host code, and/or a participant code. The system can provide an interface to enable the user to select the user code or the participant code or can create two separate conference contacts—one for each code.
