Help Advance the Future of Toll-Free Number Subscriber Authentication

RealNumber

It’s a REAL – and unfortunate – truth that even in the midst of a global pandemic, bad actors continue to defraud and deceive innocent consumers through the use of illegally spoofed phone numbers and other scams. As a proven leader in data solutions and registry management, Somos is at the forefront of developing, testing and delivering the tools needed to preserve our industry’s integrity and fight the proliferation of Toll-Free fraud.

One of the latest solutions in our portfolio built to preserve trust in communications is RealNumber. RealNumber is an innovative solution that works by validating a Telephone Number Service Provider’s (TNSP) assignment of a Toll-Free Number based on the Responsible Organization (Resp Org) of Record via the SMS/800 TFN Registry.

From being the authoritative leader in Toll-Free Number administration to having a deep network of providers – over 350 authoritative TNSPs and Resp Orgs – Somos is uniquely positioned to deliver the data needed to inform an originating Service Provider of a customer’s right to use a given Toll-Free Number. This information empowers the originating Service Provider with the Toll-Free Number’s associated data in a manner that is aligned with the STIR/SHAKEN framework.
