Dialpad lets you add local numbers to any Shared Line or user, and toll-free numbers can only be added to a Shared Line.
Let's take a look at how to add and remove local and toll-free numbers in Dialpad.

⭐️ Note: Adding local and toll-free numbers will incur additional fees. |
Add a Local Number
Shared Line
To add a shared line, head to Dialpad.com and navigate to a Shared Line (in Admin Settings) and select Add a Number > Local.
Enter the number, then select Confirm/Purchase.
Dialpad will use an available license if possible, or, you'll be asked to purchase an additional license designated for the local number. Shared Lines and users can have up to 30 numbers (local or toll-free) each.
Team Member
To add a Team Member Number, head to Dialpad.com and navigate to Admin Settings > Office > Users.
Choose the user, then select Options > Calling > Manager Phone Numbers > Add a Number. Enter the number, then select Confirm/Purchase.
Dialpad will use an available license if possible, or you'll be asked to purchase an additional license designated for the local number.
Remove a Local Number
Removing a number is a piece of cake, and once you confirm the changes, your removed number will be placed in your Unassigned Numbers (also known as your Reserve Pool) for you to access later on, or to reassign elsewhere.
Don't forget — there is a fee for maintaining numbers in your Reserve Pool.
