Improve Landline Display

Landlines cannot display rich call data elements such as logos but they do allow for Caller name information sourced from a CNAM database by the terminating carrier.

Stand Out With Mobile Display

Call presentation to mobile devices depends on the device, downloaded applications, and subscriber network. The percentage of this influence is based on the third-party branding partner for the wireless carrier, mobile application, and device.

How Does Rich Call Data Work?

There are two pathways that are able to extend a branded presence based on today's technologies.

Smart Branding

The first is "Out-of-Band," which allows for the addition of a Caller Name to be added via a branded calling solution provider at the app or network level.

Branded Calling ID (BCID)

The second pathway is "In-Band" via STIR/SHAKEN, which can associate verified branded calling elements for display on a called party's device via RCD.
