Area Code unavailable?

Methods to workaround low phone number inventory.

Written by Joshua Smith

In some cases, while you search for your preferred number by area code or ZIP code, you may see a message that reads "No Numbers Available". If you searched for an area code that is not available, it's most likely because the area code is popular and in high demand. A ZIP code search can return the same empty result for the same reason: it doesn't mean the feature is broken, only that we don't have a number available in our database for that location at that time.


No Numbers Available

We suggest choosing another area code that is available to get started. You can still change your number at a later time if a number becomes available. If you have a landline number or VoIP number with your preferred area code, we can text enable that number for you!

Using Google Voice? A Google Voice number can't be text-enabled in place. It has to be ported into Salesmsg. See Transferring a Google Voice Number to Salesmsg for the steps.

I have a Google Voice number with my preferred area code. Can I use it?
Yes, but it has to be ported into Salesmsg, because Google Voice numbers can't be text-enabled in place. After the port, all calls and texts run through Salesmsg instead of Google Voice. See Transferring a Google Voice Number to Salesmsg.
