One wrong phone number can turn a great marketing campaign into a legal headache. Your messages go out, the system runs smoothly, but if the number you contacted is a landline, a risky number, or simply an invalid number, you could face TCPA violations, unnecessary stress, and wasted spending.
Those are the exact problems that Landline Remover was built to solve. Now, itâs easier than ever to use! Landline Removerâs API is now officially available on RapidAPI, which helps businesses reduce TCPA risk in minutes.
Read on to learn why this matters and how it can protect your marketing efforts.
Why Is Landline Detection Important for TCPA Compliance?
The TCPA (Telephone Consumer Protection Act) is very strict about how businesses contact consumers.
If you send messages to numbers that are listed on DNC registries or are associated with known litigators, you violate TCPA rules even if it is unintentional and waste money, time, and effort. Common TCPA risks include automated SMS sent to landlines, poor contact list hygiene, and outdated or unverified phone numbers. Penalties can range from $500 to $1500 per violation. Thatâs why validating phone numbers is no longer optional, but itâs essential.
Landline Remover lets businesses identify phone number type, carrier type, and remove known litigator entries. It ensures compliance with state and federal DNC lists and makes it ideal for SMS marketing, lead generation, and customer outreach.
The Hidden Problem: Landline Numbers Still Live in Your Data
Many businesses assume their contact lists are clean, but the reality is often quite different. Old leads never get updated, customers change numbers, imported lists contain outdated data, and manual checks get skipped. As a result, landline numbers quietly accumulate into the system. When businesses use SMS automation, these numbers lead to failed SMS deliveries and increased compliance risks. So, the result is lower performance and higher risks.
