Wireless - Ported Numbers
Interactive Marketing Solutions
What are Ported Numbers?

To allow calling organizations to identify wireless telephones and comply with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) , the industry makes the ports from Landline-to-Wireless carriers and Wireless-to-Landline carriers available for distribution. iConectiv is the custodian of all the ported telephone numbers for North America and Interactive Marketing Solutions (IMS) is their largest registered reseller. We distribute the ported data enhancing it with the last date the number was ported. As an option, we also provide a history of ported numbers dating back to 2005 that, when used with the Wireless Block Identifier® Audit files Audit files, can determine if a number was wireless or landline on the date previously called.
