Operating in the US market, whether you are doing social platform registration, SMS notifications, voice calls or customer verification, the success or failure of many business actions actually depends on how accurately you identify them. especiallyWhat type of communication network does the mobile phone number belong to?: is a mobile number, landline number,VoIP, virtual operator or unavailable number, if this step is unclear, it is easy to reduce overall efficiency.

In order to make the recognition process more automatic and accurate, many companies have accessed services such as those provided by Digital Planet.Operator type identificationAPI interface, quickly determine the number type through systematic identification, thereby deciding whether to register, reach, and store it in the pool for continued operation.

What are the main network types for U.S. mobile phone numbers?

When identifying network types, common classifications are roughly as follows:

1. Mobile number (Mobile)

This is the most ideal type of communication network. User useMobile device registration from AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile and other operators has high quality, strong acceptance, and stable communication. It is suitable for registering social accounts, accepting verification codes, voice dialing tests, etc.

2. Landline

Landline or landline numbers still exist in some registration scenarios, but most of them cannot receive text messages and do not support social registration functions. After the system detects it, it should be eliminated directly without pushing it to the main process.

3. VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol)

likeVirtual numbers provided by TextNow, Google Voice, Bandwidth and other services are often used in registration machines and wool party operations. Although it is possible to register and receive verification codes on the surface, the risk is high and the probability of account closure is high.

4. Virtual Operator (MVNO)

For exampleCricket Wireless, MetroPCS, etc., some segments have good quality, but there are also a large number of temporary number segments and low-frequency bands, and further judgment is needed to determine whether they are stable and usable.

5. Unavailable or unknown type

If the number is deregistered, cannot be recognized by the system, has an illegal format, or the number segment is not enabled, all such numbers should be marked as unavailable to prevent wasting resources.

why passAPI identifies network type?

The reason is simple:

lHigh SMS sending failure rate, the high probability isVoIP or number not enabled;

lRegistered accounts are always blocked, maybe the number segment is a blacklist-prone area;

lVoice robot has poor connection rate, dialed a fixed number or an invalid number;

lData pool operation abnormality, the user left a virtual account or untrue information;

lWaste of investment resources, there is no priority to filter out the mobile number segment user group.

useThe API identifies communication network types and can be used early in the business processFilter out problematic number segments and retain high-quality resources, improve efficiency.

identifyWhat fields can the API output?

A standard network type identificationAPI interface usually returns the following content:

lIs itMobile

lIs itLandline

lIs itVoIP

lIs itMVNO sub-brand

lNetwork type tag (e.g.MOBILE_VERIZON, VOIP_BANDWIDTH, etc.)

lRecommended usage suggestions (such as high stability, high seal, medium quality)

These fields can provide a basis for system judgment to determine whether this number should continue to be used and whether it should be included in the main communication channel.

How to use the recognition results in the system?

Once the system has completed identifying a number, it can perform the following actions:

lIfmobile number: Enter the main registration process, send SMS verification code, and be included in the push list

lIfLandline: Intercept registration and prompt to change mobile phone number

lIfVoIP: Transfer to backup process, restrict sensitive operations or enable manual review

lIfvirtual operator segment: Enter the observation pool and continuously evaluate behavioral data

lIfUnavailable number segment: Clean directly without any business processing

Many companies willThis judgment process is embedded in the CRM or registration system to realize automatic labeling and transfer of numbers.

Which industries specifically need to identify network types?

lSocial platform account registration: Determine whether the number can be usedRegister for WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.

lShort message/Voice delivery platform: Decide whether to send, which channel to use, and distribution frequency

lCross-border e-commerce/independent station: Determine whether the user’s mobile phone number is authentic and trustworthy

lVirtual account pool management platform: Filter out long-term stable number segments

lFinancial risk control and risk assessment system: Cooperate with real name and device identification to build a complete user portrait

lOutbound calls/robot customer service system: Improve the connection rate and reduce the waste of failed calls

If you have not implemented automatic recognition, it is equivalent to letting the system"Running blindfolded." By accessing Digital Planet's communication network type identification API, you can determine whether the number can be used, whether it is worth using, and how to use it the first second it enters the system. This judgment is the basis for all your subsequent decisions.
