Branded Caller ID
Branded caller ID: your name on their screen
Unknown numbers get ignored. Dialer registers your numbers for CNAM, so your business name can show up, and SHAKEN/STIR, so carriers know the call is really from you.
Why it matters
What branded caller id does for your team
- 01
Your business name (CNAM)
Set a caller name of up to 15 characters, the most carriers will display.
- 02
Signed calls (SHAKEN/STIR)
Calls carry an A attestation, so carriers can trust they come from you, which helps keep spam labels away.
- 03
Automatic for new numbers
Every number on your Twilio account is added to your profile and both products, including ones you buy later.

FAQ
Branded Caller ID questions
Will my name show on every phone?
Not always. Caller name display depends on the person's carrier and device, and some mobile carriers don't show CNAM. Signed calls still help everywhere.
What is STIR/SHAKEN?
It's the industry standard for signing calls so the receiving carrier can verify the caller owns the number. Unsigned calls are more likely to be labelled spam.
