Porting & Location Details for Compliance Support

Staying compliant with privacy regulations like TCPA and PIPEDA requires up-to-date and accurate phone exchange information, from porting details to line type. Phone Exchange provides these essential data points along with detailed service provider information including carrier, city, state or province, line type and time zone.

Two Powerful Fraud Indicators

When it comes to fraud, line types like ‘portable VoIP’ and ‘prepaid phones’ are frequently used to hide the identity of the customer. Phone Exchange detects the line type and triggers flags when a phone number is associated with high-risk line types. The service also returns carrier location details, enabling you to cross-check phone location with customer-provided billing and shipping details and determine any discrepancies that might also  indicate fraudulent behavior.
