TruNumber® Gateway

ÎÞÓǶÌÊÓƵ TruNumber Gateway serves as the critical link between a communications service provider (CSP)’s internal operations and the external telecommunications network. It connects CSPs to national clearinghouses, dramatically simplifying and expediting the entire portability process.

By working with a trusted gateway provider, CSPs can enable seamless number portability for their customers within their network. This collaboration ensures that the transition of ported numbers is smooth and efficient, reducing operational costs and complexity through automated porting processes. 
TruNumber Gateway streamlines back-office systems and automates portability transactions, including updates to network elements during number porting changes. This approach not only minimizes human errors but also enhances overall efficiency, ensuring that ported numbers can successfully deliver calls and messages without errors within minutes of the requested change.

Any delays or gaps in connectivity can cause frustration and trigger a bad relationship from the start. The number porting experience should be painless for the consumer and CSPs.

manage volume transactions

Handling a high volume of porting transactions can be challenging and inefficient, leading to delays and customer dissatisfaction. Keeping up with changes in national portability regulations and adapting to compliance requirements adds even more to the complexity. TruNumber Gateway makes porting seamless for customers and efficient for service providers as it’s built to handle high capacity/high throughput to meet demanding Tier 1 carrier requirements.

Number portability presents revenue-generation opportunities for CSPs as they efficiently port the numbers of new subscribers from competing networks to their own. Afterall, the quicker a new customer can be ported, the quicker a CSP will begin to see revenue from that customer. Efficient porting helps by:

  • Providing a simpler way for extended teams to access routing, rating and network maintenance information.
  • Enabling teams to make more informed business decisions enabling them to optimize their operations and provide even better customer service.
  • Ensuring accurate invoicing and billing so that no money is left on the table and that customers are not overcharged.

Automating the entire number porting process end-to-end eliminates the possibility of human-error and the risks associated with manual processing. TruNumber Gateway reduces operating costs and complexity by:

  • Providing user friendly port management tools that streamlines roaming processes and simplifies network grooming.
  • Managing volume transactions in a cost-effective and efficient manner.
  • Automating the process of paying roaming partners, which can be very complex and time-consuming.
  • Providing authoritative number porting data so that calls and messages can be optimally routed.

Deploying custom or in-house built solutions can be time consuming and may require expensive testing and troubleshooting. With TruNumber Gateway, CSPs will get a dynamic, skilled and highly experienced team to integrate, manage and support the solution, freeing up more time to:

  • Create an automated, elegant flow-through porting process to ensure a graceful migration for CSPs and a simple, consistent process for subscribers.
  • Remain fully compliant with industry requirements.
  • Offer port order provisioning, as well as integration with all internal Operating Support Systems/Business Support Systems (OSS/BSS), including customer care and billing systems.
  • Minimize deployment delays by avoiding unwieldy, unreliable in-house custom-built tools.
  • Respond to porting requests within timeframes specified by regulators, avoiding possible penalties.

CSPs can avoid the time-consuming process of specifying, developing, implementing, testing and troubleshooting an unproven in-house solution. Using the industry proven TruNumber Gateway platform helps by:

  • Ensuring that your porting process is continuously monitored and any abnormalities are spotted early.
  • Providing configurable workflow timers that deliver notifications and alerts that help you respond to porting requests within the time limits specified by regulators, thus complying with number portability Service Level Agreement (SLA) rules and avoiding potential penalties.
  • Supporting multi-vendor Network Element Management Systems.
  • Allowing timely compliance with industry changes and mandates thanks to high-performance local processing from the national number portability database.
