CIC Codes
Advanced Telecom Services has a unique product offering for the pay per
call industry—CIC codes (Carrier Identification Codes).
Originally designed as a way to bill for customer service, a CIC (pronounced “kick”)
code can now be used as an alternative to a 900 number in Canada.
There are several advantages of using a CIC code versus a 900 number. First, a CIC code service
uses only an 8-digit number so it’s easier to recall than a 10-digit 900 number. Second, a CIC code
program has a better ability to hold charges than a 900 number in that consumers do not have the same
legal protection. Third, a CIC code program does not have any of the potential negative impression that
some people incorrectly associate with 900 numbers.
CIC codes are only able to bill fixed line phones. Financials are the same as 900 numbers.
