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).

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.
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.
