(207) Area Code Business Phone Numbers

Get a 207 NumberAbout the 207 Area Code
207 is one of the original area codes drawn up in 1947, and it has never been split or overlaid. That makes Maine one of a small group of states that still runs on a single statewide code [1]. If you pick up the phone anywhere between Kittery and Fort Kent, the number in front of you starts with 207.
Lewiston used to be a mill town, and the brick canal buildings along the river still show it. These days the economy leans on healthcare and education, with Bates College and Central Maine Medical Center among the biggest employers, and city employment grew by roughly 4 percent between 2023 and 2024 [2]. That mix of a small city feel and steady professional work is good ground for a local business phone.
A 207 number tells people you are in Maine, not a call center two states away. Customers in Lewiston or Auburn answer the phone faster when the caller ID looks familiar, and vendors in Augusta or Bangor remember which number to call back. Tonet gives you that local number with a dialpad in the browser, an app on your phone, and desk phones at your counter.
Cities Served by the 207 Area Code
Because 207 covers the whole state, one number works for a shop in Biddeford, a clinic in Augusta, or a contractor out of Bangor. Pick the city that matters most to your customers and the rest of Maine still reads the number as local.
What a 207 Number Does for a Maine Business
Every Tonet plan includes every feature. The difference between plans is just how you pay for calls and texts, so a one-person shop in Lewiston gets the same tools as a seven-seat office in Portland.
Auto Attendant
Record a greeting, map the keypad to the right person or group, and nest menus as deep as your business needs. Holidays and off hours get their own route.
Call Recording
Turn recording on for any 207 number, keep incoming, outgoing, and transferred legs, and search a transcript on every recorded call. Default retention is 90 days.
AI Transcription
Recorded calls get a searchable transcript with speaker labels, and every voicemail is transcribed to the email we send you. Answered calls also get a short factual summary.
Business SMS
Text customers from the same 207 number you call from, up to ten attachments per message. Sending needs the one-time 10DLC carrier registration done from the dashboard.
Mobile App
Same login as the dashboard on iOS and Android, so a contractor on a job in Brunswick picks up a 207 call without carrying a desk phone around.
Daily Billing
Plans start at $10 per user per month billed daily against a prepaid balance, numbers are $2.50 per month each, and there are no contracts. Add or remove a user and the daily charge moves with you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a 207 number if my business is not based in Maine?
Yes. Numbers are picked by area code in the dashboard, no proof of a Maine address needed, so a Boston firm with Maine clients or a remote owner in another state can still pick up a 207 line.
Does Maine have any other area codes besides 207?
No. 207 has been Maine's only area code since 1947 and there has never been a split or overlay, so a 207 number reads as local statewide.
Can I port my existing 207 number to Tonet?
Yes, and it is free. Most ports complete in 7 to 10 business days, sometimes longer depending on your current carrier. The releasing carrier controls the timing, so no date is guaranteed, and your number keeps working with your current provider until the switch, no downtime.
Will my 207 number ring on a desk phone and the mobile app at the same time?
Yes. Put the number into a ring group with your mobile app login and a Yealink or Grandstream desk phone, and both ring at once. If no one is around, it drops to voicemail with a transcript.
Can I text customers from a 207 Tonet number?
Receiving texts works right away. To send, the number has to clear the one-time A2P 10DLC carrier registration, filed from the dashboard. Approval takes a few days to a couple of weeks and carries a small monthly carrier fee.
