Creating a Number Pool

Geographic Number Pools by City/Region

Geographic Number Pools may be assigned using the details outlined in this documentation. Callers within the local calling area for the supplied city/region will not incur long distance toll charges when calling the tracking number.

Please note that when submitting these requests that the region field may be required to further refine the tracking number search scope.

To order a Local (geographic) number, submit a request similar to the following:

National Number Pools

National numbers may be assigned using the details outlined in this documentation. These phone numbers are in ranges designated to be reachable from the entire country at the same price anywhere in the country as a local phone call. Unlike geographic phone numbers, which are tied to a particular city or region such as London or Paris, national phone numbers are not tied to a particular local area. Please note that not all countries support national numbers; additionally, these numbers may not be accessible outside of the country in which they are assigned.

To order a National number, submit a request similar to the following:
