5 Reasons to Use the Lookup API
The Lookup API uses phone number intelligence to gain in-depth insights into phone numbers, improving communication strategies and enhancing overall business operations. It provides data packages for various use cases. Here are five reasons to integrate the Twilio Lookup API: (1) Validate phone numbers to ensure accurate information; (2) Confirm phone number ownership and check recent changes in consent or SIM cards associated with the phone number; (3) Improve deliverability and reduce costs by indicating if a phone number can receive your message; (4) Detect compromised phone numbers due to SIM swap attacks or linked to SMS Pumping Fraud; and (5) Improve user experience with background actions. The Lookup API is quick to integrate into existing applications and workflows, offering products and features that operate in the background without disrupting the user experience.
