Article Summary
Dialpad offers toll-free number porting services. To initiate the process, customers need to provide their toll-free number account information and a signed Letter of Authorization (LOA) to Dialpad's Porting team. It is recommended to contact the current provider for the necessary information to ensure a smooth porting process. Requesting a Customer Service Record from the losing carrier helps gather all required details accurately. The porting process typically takes 5-10 business days, assuming no issues with the submitted LOA form. Dialpad keeps customers informed and sends an email notification when toll-free numbers successfully port. To receive inbound calls on toll-free numbers, customers need to add calling credits to their Office account. It is important to avoid running out of credits, as callers will hear an "out of service" message. Toll-free numbers can be assigned to shared lines, and for further information on porting, customers can refer to Dialpad's porting resources.

Need to port in your toll-free number? No problem, Dialpad has you covered!
Let's dive into the details.
Who can use this feature
Dialpad Administrators can initiate a toll-free port request by filling out and submitting a Letter of Authorization (LOA).
Submit toll-free port request
First, you'll need to provide the account information for your toll-free numbers and return a signed LOA to our Porting team. Please contact them directly at [email protected].
Similar to local number ports, we advise you to first call your current provider and confirm what information to provide Dialpad in order to port your numbers. Requesting a Customer Service Record (CSR) is the best way to gather all of your losing carrier's information for your port.
We want to have all the details correct the first time, as if any amendments are made after submission, the request actually restarts from the beginning and therefore delays the entire timeline.
Check a toll-free port request status
Toll-free ports can take 5-10 business days to process assuming no issues with the submitted LOA form. Rest assured we will keep you informed, and when your toll-free numbers port successfully, we'll send an email to the Dialpad Admin.
Toll-free calling credits
For your toll-free number to accept inbound calls, you will need to add credits to your Office account.
If you run out of credits, callers will hear an out-of-service message stating "Sorry, this number is currently not in service. Please try again later." We highly recommend enabling auto-recharge to ensure this doesn't happen.
Easily add credits from the Billing section of your Office settings, or by going to dialpad.com/credits

Toll-Free numbers can be assigned to the following shared lined:
