What to Expect as a Broker

NumberBarn handles the marketplace. You bring the phone numbers. We do the heavy lifting.

1
Before You List
Start with numbers you own or plan to acquire.

Port in existing numbers you own, acquire new ones using NumberBarn’s search engine and checkout, or both. You don't need a large portfolio — just one number ready to list.


2
Before You Expect a Sale
Sales happen on the buyer’s timeline.

Some numbers sell in days. Others take months. A competitive price and key features like memorability or repeating digits are the biggest factors in how fast numbers might sell.


3
Before You Set a Price
You decide what your numbers are worth.

We don't set prices for you. Browse the marketplace before listing to see what prices similar numbers are selling for. Take advantage of tools like “Make an Offer” to set a range and automate negotiable numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get paid?

Your first payout is held for 30 days to verify transaction integrity. Subsequent payouts are available 10 days after a completed sale, after which you can cash out your earnings at any time via ACH to your bank account. Note that in order to get paid you will need to enter the following after creating a broker account:

  • EIN Taxpayer ID (Or SSN for individuals and sole proprietors. Don’t want to use your SSN? Create an EIN here.)
  • Active US-based checking or savings account for receiving payment. (PayPal for non-US brokers only.)
  • Non-US citizens: IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E.
  • Listed phone number(s) must have been acquired in good faith and be fraud free.
Are there any additional fees?

While there are no fees to list phone numbers, all listed phone numbers will assess NumberBarn’s standard parking fee of $2.99/month to maintain ownership of the number within your NumberBarn account for the duration of the time the phone number is listed.

Please contact our Sales Team for potential discounted parking pricing on bulk listings of 100 phone numbers or more.

Do I have to contact or interact with buyers?

NumberBarn handles all sales, billing and support for Marketplace Broker sales. For negotiable phone numbers, you set your price range within your broker account, our automated system will do the rest - you won’t have to interact with potential buyers.

Brokers using our Embedded Search tool on their own website are responsible for managing customers who purchase using this tool. (Don’t worry, we can guide you!)

What is licensing (as opposed to selling)?

Licensing means you are allowing a customer to pay monthly fees for the use of your phone number (like a lease), but you maintain ownership and the number will return to you once the license has ended.

Do I have to pay taxes on my sales?

If you are selling and/or licensing numbers through the NumberBarn Marketplace, you will likely want to report that income when filing your taxes.

If you receive more than $600 per year in payouts from NumberBarn, we will send you a 1099-K form for the year. If you need a W-9 from NumberBarn for tax purposes, our Customer Support can send one out to you.

You will also have access to review all of your selling and earnings history to use for tax purposes.


Still have questions? Our support team is here to help you get started.

"I had a bunch of numbers I got for a client and they changed their mind. I brought them to NumberBarn and they all sold with in a few weeks.

Not only did I make all my money back, I made a nice profit as well.

Thank you NumberBarn."
