Port your Google Voice number out to a business cell phone service provider

To port your number out of Google Voice, unlock the number. Then, let your mobile service provider know you want to port a number to their service. They do the rest.

Unlocking your Google Voice number costs $3, but it's free if your number was originally ported in from a mobile service provider.
  1. On your computer, go to the Google Voice unlock page.
  2. Point to the Google Voice number you want to port, and click Unlock my number.
  3. Click Continue.
  4. Pay with your Google Account. You’ll get your receipt by email.
  5. Ask your mobile service provider to port your number to their service.
  6. Note: If your mobile service provider asks for your account number and PIN, provide your ten-digit Google Voice phone number and the PIN you use to access your Google Voice voicemail.
Note: Without a phone number, your account will change to Google Voice Lite.
