Key Insights
- Waterfall is essential - No single provider exceeds 50% coverage. Using 3 providers typically triples your hit rate.
- You only pay for valid results - Waterfall stops when a number is found
- Performance varies by region - US has best coverage; EMEA and APAC significantly lower
- Quality > Quantity - A 92% accurate number is worth more than a 70% accurate one (bad numbers hurt sender reputation)
