The service uses real-time telco data to ping phone switches and check the active status of landline and mobile numbers, ensuring up-to-the-minute accuracy without relying on stale database lookups.
Businesses can integrate the validation API directly into their forms to verify phone numbers at the point of entry or use bulk validation to scrub phone lists before campaigns.
