Frequently asked questions

The turbo tool is designed for high speed responses during live data entry. When a user is filling out a webform, the agent uses the turbo endpoint to provide an instant pass or fail result. This prevents the user from submitting a form with a typo or a fake number. Standard validation may provide deeper carrier metadata, but turbo focuses on the critical connectivity and type flags needed for immediate routing. By integrating this into your lead capture flow, you ensure that every record entering your CRM is verified before a human ever sees it, which significantly increases the efficiency of your sales team.
Yes. The agent uses the Wireless ID and Reassigned Number Lookup tools to ensure compliance. TCPA rules differ based on whether you are calling a landline or a wireless device, and calling a number that has been reassigned to a new person without consent is a major risk. Ceven can be configured to automatically block any outbound SMS to landlines or flag numbers that have changed ownership since the date of consent. This creates a safety layer between your dialer and your lead list, ensuring that your outreach only targets people who are legally reachable on those specific lines.
When the agent detects an inactive status through RealPhoneValidation, it can trigger a series of automated cleanup steps. Instead of letting the record sit in your CRM, the agent can move the lead to a dead list, notify the account owner, or trigger an email follow up to ask for an updated phone number. This keeps your database clean and prevents your email or calling reputation from dropping due to high bounce rates or failed connection attempts. You can set specific rules for how different inactive codes are handled based on your business needs.
The email verification tool checks connectivity and disposability. It communicates with the mail server to see if the address is valid and can receive mail without actually sending a message. It also compares the domain against a massive list of known disposable email providers. This is critical for preventing trial abuse where users create temporary accounts to get free credits. By running this check during sign up, the agent can block disposable emails in real time and force users to provide a professional or permanent email address for their account.
One specific quirk of the RealPhoneValidation API is that bulk scrubbing is often subject to tier gated rate limits. Depending on your account level, there are caps on how many numbers you can submit in a single request or how many requests you can make per second. Ceven manages this by implementing an internal queue and exponential backoff. If the agent hits a rate limit, it will pause the workflow and resume processing once the window resets. This ensures that large lists are processed fully without crashing the integration or losing data during the scrub.
Yes, the line type tool explicitly identifies if a number is VOIP. This is useful for fraud prevention and lead scoring, as high percentages of VOIP numbers in a sign up flow can indicate bot activity or low quality leads. The agent can be told to flag any VOIP number for manual review or to require a second form of identity verification before allowing the account to be created. By distinguishing between a mobile device and a virtual number, you get a much clearer picture of the legitimacy of the person on the other end of the line.
When you provide a consent date, the agent asks RealPhoneValidation to check if the number ownership has changed since that specific point in time. If the number was reassigned, it means the person who originally gave you consent no longer owns that phone number. The agent then marks the record as non compliant and removes it from the active calling list. This is a vital step for any company that maintains long term lead lists, as phone number ownership changes millions of times per year, making old consent records potentially dangerous for compliance.
While the tool has strong international capabilities, some features like the Turbo V3 validation and Wireless ID are specifically optimized for US phone numbers. For international numbers, the agent uses the general validation and connectivity tools to ensure the number is formatted correctly and is active. If you are running a global operation, the agent can be configured to apply different validation logic based on the country code of the lead. This ensures that you are using the most accurate tool available for the specific region you are targeting during your outreach.
