Why Brands Choose First Orion: The Gold Standard in Branded Communication

Transparency between your brand and your customers is vital, especially when they don’t answer your calls if they don’t see your name. Whether you are a local startup confirming your very first orders or a global enterprise managing millions of customer touchpoints, the challenge remains the same: How do you ensure your customers pick up the phone? 

At First Orion, we have spent nearly two decades perfecting the answer. From our roots in North Little Rock to our global offices in Washington, London, and Dubai, and our expansion through Global Exchange, we have grown into a team of over 300 experts dedicated to one mission: protecting the connection between businesses and consumers. 

Here are the reasons businesses trust us to power their most important conversations. 

The Pioneer of Branded Calling

We did not just join the branded calling movement; we started it. Founded in 2008, our mission has always been “People First.” We were the ones who made “Scam Likely” a household phrase to protect consumers, and in 2017, we launched the industry’s first branded calling solution. When you work with us, you are working with the architects of the technology.

Direct, Deep-Rooted Carrier Relationships

You cannot brand a call without the network’s cooperation. First Orion’s technology is integrated directly into the network. We have spent years building deep partnerships with major Tier One carriers, ensuring your brand, logo, and call reason are delivered consistently to hundreds of millions of devices with unparalleled reliability. 

A Solution for Every Interaction

First Orion’s solutions are proven to improve customer engagement, enhance security and transparency, and provide vital actionable insights. 

• Business Number Registration: Make the essential first step to identity management. By vetting and registering your numbers across the carrier ecosystem, we establish your business as a verified entity, laying the groundwork for improved answer rates and consistent labeling across networks. 
• INFORM® Branded Calling: Take control of your caller ID with up to 32 characters of customizable text. This allows you to display your brand name and a specific reason for calling on the customer’s screen. 
• INFORM Branded Calling with Logo: Elevate brand recognition by adding your official corporate logo to the call display. This creates a premium, visually verified experience that stands out instantly.  
• SENTRY® Call Blocking: Protect your brand from being “spoofed.” SENTRY uses digital certificates to verify your identity, stopping bad actors from impersonating your numbers before the call ever reaches your customers.
