It is a set of protocols designed to verify caller ID information and ensure that it comes from a genuine source. This system uses digital certificates to authenticate the caller’s identity. When a call is made, the caller’s credentials are confirmed through these certificates, which are then recorded in an online database. This process helps recipients trust that the call is indeed from the expected source.
It’s important to note that while SHAKEN/STIR won't eliminate spam or nuisance calls, it might increase the likelihood of answered calls by providing a “Trusted Call” label.

1. How will the numbers be linked to the SHAKEN/STIR Profile?
All numbers will be Linked Automatically. All currently available numbers and future bought numbers will automatically be linked with the registered SHAKEN/STIR.
2. Why does the business name not display when making calls, even though the client is A2P and SHAKEN/STIR approved with a verified caller ID setup?
The business name does not display when making calls because the verified caller ID feature only changes the number to display as the actual business number or the client's cell phone. To display the business name, the CNAM Registration feature will be required.
3. How can I prevent future mislabeling of my calls?
Register all new numbers immediately.
Monitor call patterns for irregularities.
Follow industry best practices for call frequency and messaging content.
4. What should I do if my international calls are marked as spam?
If your international calls are flagged as spam, contact the terminating carrier directly to address the issue, as there is no centralized system for international spam label removal.
