Services and Products Overview
Internet Lead Validation
Accudata’s AccuSure service ensures that e-retailers have accurate and current lead information that they either purchase from lead providers or collect from their own online forms. By ensuring that this information is accurate and valid, our AccuSure service improves the efficiency of our clients’ sales processes, reducing the time and money that they might otherwise waste on bad leads.
Line Information Database (LIDB) Storage
As one of only about 11 authorized LIDB storage centers currently operating in the United States, Accudata is unique. As the only company that built its own LIDB from the ground up, Accudata is in a technological class of its own. The Accudata LIDB is available for LEC storage as well as access by other operating companies.
LIDB Validation
For validation of billing, we provide a link to every major LIDB database in North America on our own SS7 network for real-time validation of collect, third-party and calling-card calls. With LIDB validation, customers are able to identify if the service is non-POTS residential or business, such as a payphone or a prison, and receive the Account Owner (AO) information to indicate the LEC providing local dial-tone service.
LIDB validation, available in real-time or batch, benefits local exchange carriers, long distance providers, payphone and inmate phone system companies, among others. The possibilities are endless.
Calling Name Database (CNAM) Storage
Unique in the industry, Accudata stores both LIDB and CNAM information in the same database, saving our storage customers from duplicate administration updates. For no charge, Accudata will store your subscribers' Calling Name data, and you’ll earn revenue when other carriers access the data for Calling Name delivery (or enhanced Caller ID.)
CNAM Delivery Service
Accudata is linked to every major CNAM database in North America to return Calling Name information instantly. With CNAM delivery, carriers create revenue opportunities delivering nationwide enhanced Caller ID to their subscribers. Just like LIDB, CNAM offers a wide variety of applications to customers from telecommunications to telemarketing.
Bankcard Authorization Service
Accudata bankcard service validates credit and debit cards to make certain they are valid, current and not stolen or suspended. Also, the service can indicate if there are sufficient funds to pay and whether the customer is likely to pay based on previous payment history.
Billing Name and Address (BNA) Service
Critical to long distance providers, direct marketing firms and 900 number companies, Billing Name and Address Verification helps Accudata clients obtain information to bill consumers directly or update customer database records. For the most current name and address information for telephone numbers, Accudata BNA service searches a regularly updated, dynamic database. Often, other vendors search databases that are created from outdated phone directory information. For our BNA service, clients send a batch of numbers via FTP. Within 24 hours, Accudata returns the results for up to 1 million queries.
Working Telephone Number (WTN™) Service
Our WTN™ service is a great solution for telemarketing companies, e-retailers, lead generation providers and similar service providers. Accudata screens 10-digit numbers against a combination of CNAM, LIDB and other sources and indicates whether the numbers are working or not.
Telephone Number Validation Service
Before connecting certain calls, payphone providers, inmate systems, operator services, wireless operators and hospitality services must determine whether they will be able to collect payment for each call. If payment is unlikely, the provider can choose not to connect the call. Telephone service providers and wireless carriers rely on Accudata validation to access and cross-reference information that will indicate the likelihood of payment. E-retailers like online auto dealers and apartment locators use Accudata's validation services to check their lead information, making their sales efforts more productive.
Carrier Type Lookup (CTL) Service
For companies such as telemarketers that need to avoid calling wireless numbers, Carrier Type Lookup screens customer-provided numbers and identifies the type of carrier, landline or wireless, with nearly 100% accuracy.
Operating Company Name Lookup (OCNL™)
When wireline or wireless subscribers get better offers from other providers, they often switch. The carriers who lose these subscribers learn only that the number has been ported and the billing has been changed. It's a little like going back to college after the summer and finding that your best friend from last year has transferred to some other school without telling you.
