What is Extended CNAM 

Did you know that around 87% of people admitted they actually don’t engage with unknown numbers calling them? We’ve got a solution!

CLASSOUND by Wildix already offered CNAM service for its US and Canada users. Now, there is an extended, advanced version of CNAM that provides even more benefits (currently available for the USA and Germany only). 

Ensure that every call your agents make, highlights the caller name and makes customers aware of the company that contacts them. Inform your customers that the caller is a trusted company by enabling extended CNAM service which displays the personalized caller name provided by you. 

Extended CNAM is an enhanced option compared to the standard CNAM. Their core differences are displayed in the table below:

Advantages

  • Personalized 32-character (for US) / 30-character (for Germany) messages
  • Messages displayed in call log
  • Brand protection from scammers
  • Verified call tag displayed during the call, which makes your calls even more trustworthy for customers
  • 280 million+ US devices coverage

So, the main difference from the standard CNAM is the length of 30/ 32 vs 15 and the indication. This lets you turn your call into a branded one, by including the name of the company in the detected caller name as shown on the picture below:
