What each type means for the caller

Toll-free: 800 or 801
Free to the caller, usually only from inside the country; the business that owns the number pays for the call. 7 or 11 digits after +503.
Premium rate: 900
Charged above a normal call at a rate set by the service, with part of the charge going to the service provider. 7 or 11 digits after +503.

Writing and dialling a El Salvador toll-free number

El Salvador has no trunk prefix, so the number is the same at home and abroad; in E.164 put +503 in front: 800 1234 becomes +5038001234. Many freephone numbers still only accept calls from inside El Salvador, and a call from abroad that does connect is usually charged.

Toll-free and premium numbers in a phone list

In a lead or customer list, a toll-free number usually reaches a company line rather than a person, and a premium-rate number costs you money to call. The free toll-free number checker flags them in a pasted list or CSV, and the El Salvador phone number format page covers mobiles and landlines.

The numbering plan only knows what a range was issued for.

In the US and Canada mobiles and landlines share the same prefixes, and anywhere a number can be ported or reassigned the range stops telling the whole story. A live carrier lookup asks the network data instead, which is what Pro + Phone ($49.99/mo) adds.
