# Phone Number Verification and Risk

> Validate and score phone numbers. Carrier, country, and risk signals so you can trust the number before you onboard.

Phone Number Check screens a user’s phone number to validate authenticity
and uncover identity signals tied to that number.

This check can serve as a lightweight KYC entry point or a fraud flag signal in standard onboarding flows.

***

#### Core Features

* **Phone Validation**: Confirms if the number is active, mobile or landline, and not disposable.

* **Carrier & Country Data**: See which network and country are associated with the number.

* **Social Account Matching**: Identify linked accounts (e.g. email, social profiles) tied to that phone.

* **Risk Score**: Flags high-risk numbers based on telco behavior and public data.

#### Use Cases

* **User Onboarding**: Validate a user’s number before proceeding with ID or document checks to minimize fraud and improve throughput.

* **Risk Flagging**: Pre-screen phone numbers to detect high-risk users before approving risky accounts or actions.

* **Profile Enrichment**: Capture demographic data tied to phone ownership for analytics or personalized experiences.
