Numbers & porting

Your number is the asset. We treat it that way.

New local and toll-free numbers, or the one on your letterhead since 2003 — ported in without dropping traffic, text-enabled, and locked against unauthorized port-out.

What it is
Provisioning, porting, and protecting the phone numbers behind your messaging and voice programs.
Who it's for
Anyone moving off a reseller, consolidating numbers across offices, or wanting customers to be able to text the number they already call.
What it costs
Local numbers $0.35/month, toll-free $0.50/month; porting included. Numbers on the rate card.

Porting

Migrations that don't drop traffic.

We run local and toll-free ports every week: paperwork, carrier coordination, cutover timing, and a person watching the traffic on port day. Messaging registration moves with the number so texting doesn't go dark.

Managed end to end

LOA, CSR review, and carrier follow-up handled by us; you get the date, not the chase.

Scheduled cutover

Port windows chosen around your traffic, with routing pre-staged.

Bulk moves

Consolidate hundreds of numbers from multiple carriers in phased batches.

Text-enable a landline

Let customers text the number they already call.

Your published business line can receive and send texts without moving voice service anywhere. We text-enable the number, register it for 10DLC, and route messages to your app, portal, or team.

No voice disruption

Voice stays with your current provider; only messaging routes to us.

Registered properly

The number is filed under your brand and campaign so replies and notifications actually deliver.

Two-way

Customers reply to the number they know; your team answers from the portal or your own tools.

Port-out protection

Locked-in security with every number.

Unauthorized porting — a fraudster moving your number to another carrier to intercept calls and one-time codes — is a real attack on businesses. Numbers on our network can be locked so a port-out requires verified authorization from you, not just a form.

Port-out lock

Numbers can't leave without your verified approval.

Change alerts

Know when a port request or CSR pull touches your numbers.

Identity record

TNID keeps the ownership and consent history verifiable.

FAQ

Questions we answer every week.

How long does a port take?

Simple local ports typically complete in a few business days once the losing carrier validates the request; toll-free and bulk ports are scheduled. We give you a realistic date up front and watch the cutover.

Will texting keep working during a port?

We move the messaging registration with the number and stage routing ahead of the port window so the gap is minimal — usually none.

Can I text-enable a number without moving my phone service?

Yes. Text-enabling only routes SMS/MMS to us; your voice service stays where it is.

What is unauthorized porting and how do you prevent it?

It's when someone moves your number to another carrier without your consent, usually to intercept calls or verification codes. Numbers on our network can be locked so port-outs require verified authorization from you.

What do numbers cost?

Local $0.35/month, toll-free $0.50/month, no setup fee; porting is included. Rate card.
