What it is

Skip tracing looks up phone numbers for contacts from their property address. You can run it on a selection of contacts right from the Lists page.

Where to find it

  2. Click Skip trace in the action bar.

Good to know

  • Skip tracing is paid for with RealDialer skip trace credits or your own connected skip trace key. Set either up in Settings > Connections.
  • If you are short on credits, the dialog says how many you need and links to Buy credits.
  • Contacts are skipped when they asked not to be called, have no property address with a city or ZIP, or were traced in the last 30 days.
  • The button stays greyed out when you select more than 50 contacts or use Select all matching.
  • A contact that runs out of working numbers lands on the Bad Numbers list. A trace that finds a working number takes it back off.
