How porting works: buy once, port in 24–48 hours
What actually happens after you buy a number — the transfer kit, your carrier, and the typical 24–48 hour timeline.
You own it the moment you buy
When you purchase a number from Exclusive Digits it is registered to your account immediately. There is no subscription and no waiting period to "claim" it — it is yours.
We email you a transfer kit
Within hours of checkout you receive the credentials your carrier needs to port the number in: the account/PIN details and the current carrier of record. You hand these to your carrier (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Mint, Google Fi, Visible — any major US carrier).
Your carrier completes the port
The carrier submits the port-in request. Most ports complete in 24–48 hours. You keep using your existing line until the new number activates, so there is no downtime.
No lock-in, ever
Because the number is yours outright, you can move it between carriers later, sell it, gift it, or pass it down. You are never tied to one provider.
