# How do I remove the phone number field?

## To create a frictionless payment experience, RevEngine allows organizations to easily remove the phone number field via the page layout settings.

Newly created pages include a field for a phone number as part of your data collection. However, this field is optional and not required to make a contribution.

In the interest of a more frictionless experience, you can remove the phone number field altogether.

### **Removing the phone number field**

To remove the phone number prompt:

1. Sign in at [RevEngine](https://engine.fundjournalism.org/sign-in)
2. Select the page you’d like to edit from the **Pages** section of your RevEngine dashboard
3. Select the **Layout** tab
4. Find the **Contributor Info** block and click on its edit icon
5. Deselect the switch labeled **Ask for phone number?**
6. Update changes to the block before saving your page by selecting the **Save** icon

This will prevent contributors from submitting their phone numbers while making payments. If you instead wish to make it mandatory to provide a phone number, [click here](https://news-revenue-hub.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/11/article/2406711307).
