Frequently Asked Questions

What is a phone type check?

A phone type check identifies the kind of line associated with a number, such as mobile, landline, or VoIP.

What is the difference between mobile, landline, and VoIP?

Mobile numbers use cellular services. Landline numbers are associated with fixed telephone services. VoIP numbers use internet-based calling services.

What is the difference between fixed and non-fixed VoIP?

Fixed VoIP is associated with a physical device or location. Non-fixed VoIP can be obtained online without a fixed device or location. Both use internet-based calling.

Does a mobile result mean the number can receive SMS?

Mobile numbers generally support SMS, but a line type result does not confirm delivery. The number may be inactive, unreachable, or subject to messaging restrictions.

Does a VoIP result mean a number is fraudulent?

No. VoIP is a type of phone service used by people and businesses. Line type alone is not evidence of fraud.

Why might the line type be unknown?

The lookup service may not have enough data to classify the number. Some numbering ranges are shared by mobile and landline services. An unknown type does not mean the number is invalid.

Is phone type the same as phone carrier?

No. Phone type describes the line, such as mobile or VoIP. The carrier is the company providing the service. Use the carrier checker to look up the carrier.
