Acudo Phone Validation
What it is
Acudo Phone Validation is a paid web and API service for checking phone numbers and supporting messaging workflows. It validates numbers in real time for validity, reachability, and formatting, with HLR and carrier lookup, line-type detection, country normalization, and ported-number detection. Bulk uploads can process millions of records in hours and report clean, invalid, and ported numbers. Acudo says coverage spans more than 200 countries through network intelligence and direct operator connections where available. Fraud signals include disposable or fake numbers, roaming or inactive SIMs, SIM swaps, port-outs, and recently issued or burner numbers. UK TPS and CTPS screening is available, while compliance remains the customer’s responsibility. Global SMS sending includes delivery reporting, redundant routing, and failover. The API can connect with CRMs, order systems, and apps. Acudo presents the service for retail, enterprise, healthcare, logistics, financial services, and communications businesses. Pricing is usage- and volume-based and requires a quote.
