Onboarding Agent
Onboarding Agents serve as the point of entry to BCID for prospective registrants/enterprises interested in delivering a branded call experience to their customers. BCID Authorized Onboarding Agents are required to collect and convey customer information to approved Vetting Agents and manage billing, reporting, and customer support functions.
Request information on becoming an Authorized Onboarding Agent.
Vetting Agent
A Vetting Agent is a third party responsible for validating that enterprise callers are who they say they are, and have the right to use a display name, logo, and call reason.
Vetting Agents are responsible for performing rigorous vetting and validation of all registrant information, including confirmation of registrant identity and telephone numbers, and vetting caller display names, logos, and call reasons.
Request information on becoming an Authorized Vetting Agent.
Signing Agent
Signing Agents generate the cryptographic signature on the SHAKEN PASSporT that confirms a BCID call has been properly vetted and validated by an Authorized Partner. Terminating Service Providers rely on this signature to know which calls contain vetted display data (name, logo, call-reason) they can trust to convey to their customer handsets.
