Get an 802 number

There are two ways to get an 802 number. A provider includes a new number with its plan. You select one when you sign up from the numbers the provider holds in the code. A seller advertises numbers it already has, often with a pattern, at a one-time price. You then transfer the chosen number to a provider.
