We now offer an Unlimited Skip Tracing add-on for your subscription. Unlimited Skip Tracing is just $97 per month and allows you to skip trace any number of records. You can also set up automations, such as skip tracing all records every 90 days.
If you aren't skip tracing many records per month, we also offer a pay-as-you-go option, which will pull from your credits.

Essentials (grandfathered plan): $0.17
Professional: $0.15

For best results, we recommend skip tracing only clean records, which include:
Owner first and last name

Skip Tracing Rules
We can provide up to 5 phone numbers per match (note: not all matches will have 5).
If an owner has multiple properties in your account, you will not be charged multiple times within the same skip tracing activity. Even if you don’t select those records, we will populate results on all properties they own.
You are charged for matches, and we assume a 100% match rate upfront. If no match is found, the amount will be refunded back to your credits.
If a number already exists on a record, it still counts as a match and is not refunded.
We will use the mailing address for skip tracing unless it is a P.O. box, then we will us the property address.
If you already have numbers for a record, and there’s space, we will append new numbers into that record. You will still be charged for those matches.
We also provide the phone type and whether the number is connected or disconnected:
