When carrying out cross-border communication, marketing or notification services, many companies have such a problem: they have imported tens of thousands of North American mobile phone numbers, but a large number of sent messages have not been delivered, and even caused problems such as account bans and complaints.
In the final analysis,These numbers may themselves not be in the"available status",like:
lHas been logged out or shut down
lbelongVoIP or temporary number cannot receive regular text messages or voice calls
lAlthough the format is correct, it is not the real user number.
Therefore, before performing any contact activities, companies must first go throughOperator number detection, especially withReal-time status judgment functiondetection means to complete pre-filtering.
Especially in the United States and Canada, two countries with large numbers and complex user behaviors, operator number status detection has become a prerequisite for accurate access.
2. What problem does status detection solve?
Operator number detection is generally divided into two stages:
lFormat detection: Determine whether the number structure is compliant and whether it is the target country number segment.
lstatus detection: Determine whether the number actually exists and whether it is currently available.
in,status detectionIt is directly related to the key to the company's delivery hit rate. Through status detection, enterprises can:
lEliminate downtime, inactive, and canceled numbers
lDetermine whether it is a non-entity number provided by a virtual operator
lWhether the identification number has been active recently and whether it can be usedWhatsApp, SMS or voice channel
The currently online North American status detection function coversMainstream carriers in the United States and Canada(likeVerizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Rogers, Bell, etc.) status is determined in real time.
3. Operator number detectionDoes the API interface have to be connected?
This depends on the scale of use and scenarios of the enterprise.
If your testing needs are:
lImport hundreds or thousands of numbers each time
lmultiple teams/Execute reaching tasks in batches in multiple countries
lWant to embed the detection process intoCRM or marketing automation system
Then connect directlyOperator number detectionAPI interface, achievableAutomatic recognition within the system+ Return results in real time, avoiding the manual upload and download process, with higher efficiency and lower errors.
But if you are only doing a phased screening, or the team does not have development capabilities yet, you can still passConsole interface upload detection, no needAPI interfaces can also use the same data capabilities.
4. What are the differences that should be paid attention to when checking numbers in the United States and Canada?
Although they both belong to the North American market, there are still some differences between the United States and Canada in terms of number structure and usage habits. It is recommended to pay attention to the following points when testing:
1.Canada has a higher proportion of virtual numbers, suitable for basic format recognition first, and then eliminating unusable numbers through status detection.
2.U.S. carriers are more clearly divided, many companies will deliver refined content based on operator attributes, so it is recommended to retain the operator field as a tag for subsequent analysis.
3.Number segments in both places are updated frequently, especially in large urban areas, new number segments are often released. It is recommended to conduct a status update check before each marketing campaign to avoid reaching old numbers.
Attribution identification through detection system+ Status judgment combination can help enterprises clearly stratify:
lWhich are stable and available real users?
lWhich ones are low response or virtual numbers and should be excluded
5. How to use this function? The process is very simple
Currently, the North American operator number status detection function has been launched on the Digital Planet platform and supports two usage methods:
1.Console upload file detection: Suitable for beginner users, supportsCSV/Excel and other formats, one-click upload and one-click export
2.API interface docking call: Suitable for teams with systematic needs, supportRESTful interface standard, providing complete documentation and technical support
No matter which method is used, the returned results will include:
lCountry and operator affiliation
lNumber status (available/stop/logout, etc.)
lWhether it supports SMS, voice, and social platform contact
6. Practical suggestions: Test in small batches before screening numbers, and then deploy on a large scale
It is recommended that enterprises first extract numbers from the existing database before officially importing large batches of numbers.1000~5000 North American numbersCarry out testing and observe:
lValid number ratio
lvirtual number/VoIP share
lDifferences in number activity rates under different operators
Digital Planet currently supports application for test samples. You can submit samples through the platform customer service, verify the result fields and detection accuracy first, and then decide whether to use it.The API interface is open for a long time.
7. Summary: Which teams are suitable to be activated first?
The following types of companies recommend giving priority to North American number status detection services:
lWhatsApp, Telegram social reach team: Need to filter unregisterable or unavailable numbers
lSMS marketing platform: It is necessary to clarify whether the number is a physical card user to avoid cost waste due to delivery failure.
lOutbound phone team: Shutdown needs to be identified in advance/Cancel account to avoid wasting customer service resources
lAI chat/bot system: It is necessary to accurately determine whether the conversation object is valid to avoid accidentally triggering messages or processes.
Now, this testing service is open for use, and interested teams are welcome to apply for testing and interconnection. If you still have problems with delivery failure or unknown numbers in reaching the United States and Canada, this will be an optimization step worth starting.
