How to Get an <gradient-text>855<gradient-text> Toll-Free Number

The

855

area code is designated for toll-free numbers in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP). Toll-free numbers with the

855

area code provide a cost-free means of communication for callers. Unlike geographic area codes, the

855

area code is not tied to a specific region and can be used by entities across North America. It is one of several toll-free area codes, including 800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 877, and 888 that serve as a convenient way for companies to establish accessible and customer-friendly contact points.

Steps to Get Your
Toll Free Number

To obtain a toll-free number, you must purchase it through a Responsible Organization (RespOrg) authorized by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). These RespOrgs, appointed by the FCC, act as intermediaries ensuring the smooth acquisition and management of toll-free numbers. Through a carefully regulated process, individuals and businesses can secure an exclusive toll-free number, enriching their customer experience by providing a free means of communication nationwide.

Choose your Prefix

When setting up a toll-free number for your business, there are various options to consider. You can choose a custom vanity number that reflects your company's name or keyword. While the traditional "800" prefix is well-known, newer alternatives like 833, 844, 855, 866, 877, or 888 offer wider availability and the opportunity to secure a more memorable and suitable toll-free number.

step 1

Claim a Toll-Free number

Companies seeking a toll-free number must subscribe to it through an approved RespOrg. A Resporg, or “Responsible Organization”, is a company authorized to index numbers in the toll-free database and subscribe them to businesses. Most mobile, VoIP, and landline service providers are RespOrgs.Contact your phone service provider to inquire about their RespOrg status and request your desired number. If they are an authorized RespOrg, you can either submit them a request for the desired number or select the number from their “Toll-Free Numbers” page.

Activate Service for the Toll-Free Number

Activating your toll-free number is incredibly easy and convenient. You have two options to get started: either add it from inside the administrative portal or simply order a brand new number directly from our user-friendly website. Rest assured, our intuitive interface will guide you every step of the way. If you come across any questions or need assistance, our dedicated support team is available to help.

Use the Number for Calling and Texting

Not only that, but you'll also have the ability to send and receive texts with SMS capability. Enhance your business operations by setting up voicemail, call forwarding, and other necessary functions. Enjoy the flexibility of using the toll-free number on any device with a VoIP phone system. Additionally, call center agents can seamlessly switch between DID numbers and the toll-free number using a single app, all while benefiting from advanced features such as auto attendants and call queues.

Standard Toll Free Numbers

A "standard toll-free number" refers to a toll-free number that is not customized for memorability. The toll-free prefixes 800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 877, and 888are all examples of these standard numbers. This means that aside from vanity numbers, all the toll-free numbers mentioned below fall under the category of standard toll-free numbers. It's important to note that standard toll-free numbers can be dialed from anywhere in the world, as long as international callers dial the appropriate country code first.

I signed up for Voiply's Park Your Number service, as I no longer needed a home landline and found myself inundated with spam calls that were constantly disrupting me when I was working from home. I really wanted to keep my phone number as it I have had it for decades and there is no way I could remember all of the places that I have listed it as my main contact number, so this was a great solution to not severe that history but still provide me a break from these incessant solicitation calls... Now I am able to get email notifications when people leave messages so I can easily review them when it is convenient for me. I can also log in to my Voiply account and review a full log of calls, see which ones left or didn't leave messages. It is a joy to see the tally of calls (most of which were of no interest to me!) and to appreciate the amount of disruptions that have now been avoided. That alone is worth the very small price for the service. I only wish I had found out about this sooner. Bravo Voiply, bravo!

Voiply does have an A+ BBB rating. Just set it all up, was some issues with getting started, but contacted them. Initial communication was easily done through what seemed to be AI generated. Info was sent to a technician who fixed all my issues within the hour. I did not have to stay on the phone while the tech was doing their fix. Once everything was working, the tech sent me an email of his work and asked if all was good. I was able to reply, which is usually not an option to other businesses. Voiply seems to work great. Many features to learn along the way. I hope this will be a long friendship for us. I 100% would recommend this to everyone. The price is right. Just be patient for the initial set up, they are there to help, even with transferring your phone number for free, which many businesses are charging you for.
