How do US toll-free numbers work?

A US toll-free number is a telephone number that lets people reach your business without paying long-distance fees. Instead of charging your callers, a toll-free number will bill your company for all expenses due. Depending on the provider, you have a set amount of toll-free minutes per month you can use for calling before you pay extra. With OpenPhone, you don't pay for inbound calls, and any outbound calls to the US and Canada come free with your plan.

Callers in countries that follow the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) can call a toll-free number without paying long-distance charges. That includes the USA and Canada, along with 18 other countries and regions like Jamaica, the British Virgin Islands, and even the Caribbean.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) manages North American toll-free numbers, with strict guidelines about how businesses should use these numbers. However, you don’t need to call the FCC to get a 800 number — companies like OpenPhone offer toll-free numbers with prefixes like 833, 844, 855, 866, 877 and 888.

You don’t have to worry about having a dedicated receptionist with phone menus. Plus, your team can easily warm transfer callers to the right person as needed. And if you need to work together on a live call with a customer, you can host group calls

Take work off your plate

OpenPhone lets you automate many repetitive tasks so you can focus on building better customer relationships. You can use the OpenPhone Zapier integration to automatically send appointment reminder texts based on your booking software or connect OpenPhone to thousands of other apps. You can also queue up scheduled text messages to reach your contacts during business hours and save snippets for later to respond to frequently asked questions. For any follow-up after a phone conversation, you can use call summaries and transcripts to have action items without needing to worry about taking notes during a live call. 

No worries about remembering to log every call, either. Our HubSpot and Salesforce integrations do the work for you. 

Set clear expectations when your team is off

Enable business hours so your team only receives calls and texts at set times during the day. If you need callers to reach an alternate number outside of working hours, you can also set up after hours call forwarding. Plus, add auto-replies based on whether someone attempts to reach you during or after hours so you can automatically let them know when they can expect to hear back from your team.

“The shared communications history in OpenPhone is just so valuable. Everything we do…all of that is a shared history so that any one person can step in immediately and take over a function, a task, or a relationship and understand what’s happened in that relationship and be able to pick it up without causing any hiccups”
