(386) Area Code Business Phone Numbers
The 386 area code covers Palm Coast, Daytona Beach and the rest of northeast central Florida, and it has been the local calling identity here since it split off from 904 in 2001. A (386) number tells your customers you are around the corner, not routed through a stranger in another state.

Before 2001, this stretch of Florida shared the 904 area code with Jacksonville. When Jacksonville's growth filled the numbering plan, the state carved out 386 for Volusia, Flagler and a wide inland belt that reaches toward the Gainesville area. Today it covers everything from the Daytona Beach boardwalk to quiet DeLand neighborhoods, and locals recognize it the way they recognize the Halifax River.
Palm Coast has become one of the fastest growing small cities in the state, and Flagler County added 25,000 residents between 2020 and 2025, which ranked it sixth for growth in Florida[1]. Down the road, the Deltona, Daytona Beach and Ormond Beach metro area is home to more than 13,000 businesses contributing to roughly 15 billion dollars in annual GDP[2]. That is a lot of contractors, clinics, shops and service companies trying to pick up the phone before the other guy does.
A local 386 number matters here because this is still a region where people ask who you know, where you went to high school, and whether you remember the pier before the last storm. Showing an out of state caller ID gets you sent to voicemail. A (386) number from Tonet rings on your laptop, your cell and your desk phone at the same time, so a call from a snowbird client in Palm Coast reaches whoever is free, not whoever happens to be at a specific desk.
Cities Served by the 386 Area Code
The 386 footprint stretches along the Atlantic from Flagler Beach down past Port Orange, then west across Volusia County to DeLand and Deltona. Seven cities make up the bulk of the business population.
Phone Features Built for 386 Businesses
From a two person law office in DeLand to a roofer juggling storm season in Palm Coast, the same tools are included on both plans. Here is what you actually use day to day.
Auto Attendant
Record a greeting that routes callers by keypad to the right person. Nest menus for sales, service, billing and after hours without any extra charge.
Call Recording
Flip recording on per number for incoming and outgoing calls. Useful when a storm damage estimate turns into a dispute three months later.
AI Transcription
Recorded calls and every voicemail come back as searchable text with speaker labels, so you can scan a conversation instead of replaying it.
Business SMS
Text and MMS from the same 386 number customers call, after a one-time 10DLC carrier registration from the dashboard. Great for appointment reminders.
Mobile App
iOS and Android apps use the same login as the browser dashboard. Take a Deltona customer's call from a job site without exposing your personal cell.
Daily Billing
Plans start at $10 per user per month, billed daily from a prepaid balance. Numbers are $2.50 each per month. Add a seat during spring break traffic, drop it when things slow down.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I port my existing 386 number to Tonet?
Yes, porting in is free. Most ports complete in 7 to 10 business days, sometimes longer depending on your current carrier. Your number keeps working with your existing provider until the switch, so there is no downtime.
How much does a 386 number cost?
Each number is $2.50 per user per month. Plans start at $10 per user per month on Pay As You Go, which adds one cent per minute and three cents per text. Unlimited US calling and texting is $15 per user per month under a fair use policy.
Do I need to live in Palm Coast or Daytona Beach to get a 386 number?
No. Pick any 386 number from the dashboard and it works immediately. A property manager in Jacksonville can keep a local 386 line for a Flagler Beach rental without maintaining a second office.
Will one 386 number ring everyone on my team?
Yes. Put the number in a ring group and every member rings at once in the browser, the mobile app and any Yealink or Grandstream desk phone. If no one picks up, callers land in a group voicemail with a transcript.
What happens during a hurricane if the power goes out?
Calls follow you to the mobile app on cellular data, so a Daytona Beach office losing power can still answer. If every device is offline, the number can forward to any outside cell as a backup route.
