How to navigate between your NumberBarn and NumberGarage accounts

How to switch accounts once logged in

In the screenshots above, you will see the option to "Switch Account." After converting from NumberBarn to NumberGarage, you will have two accounts with the same email address. Click Switch Account to select the account you wish to log in to.

If you find that the accounts have the same name, you can go to "Profile" and click "Edit" next to "Account Information." Then enter a nickname in the "Business Name" field to make it easier to identify the accounts in the dropdown list.

How does billing work?

We can easily move your number(s) for you without any porting fees or interruptions to your service. You will be billed at your new (NumberGarage or NumberBarn) rate beginning with your next billing cycle. So if you just paid your Park plan fee yesterday, you won't have to pay your new NumberGarage rate until next month, even though you have access to all of NumberGarage's features right away.

Keep in mind that NumberGarage doesn't have multiple plans, but uses a la carte pricing instead.
