# Whitepages alternatives and how they bill

Whitepages alternatives in people search: 3 other providers ranked by per-1,000 price, with how each one bills and the page each figure comes from.

LookValid does not offer people-search records. For that job, use Whitepages or another provider on this list. Whitepages sells people-search records. Whitepages is a US people and phone directory with free basic searches and a Premium subscription for cell numbers, background reports and property records. It also advertises per-query API products.

## Why people look beyond Whitepages

- Free results are limited to names, addresses and some landline numbers. ([source](https://www.whitepages.com/))

## Shortlist in people search

Ranking rule: Lowest per-1,000 price in US dollars first, at the best volume tier the page prints. Where a page prints only a price per request, the per-1,000 figure is our arithmetic and is shown as "about". Providers with no dollar per-1,000 figure we can compare come after, and ties go by name.

| Rank | Provider | Best for | Free result | Paid result | How it bills |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | BeenVerified | Teams that want a fixed plan with a set volume. |  | 1 Month Membership: $36.89, per month after the trial, up to 100 reports ([source](https://www.beenverified.com/pricing)) | Subscription |
| 2 | Spokeo | Teams that want a fixed plan with a set volume. | A name search can be run without paying, but full reports need a membership. ([source](https://www.spokeo.com/)) | 3 month Membership: $14.95, per month, billed every 3 months, up to 100 reports per month ([source](https://www.spokeo.com/purchase?url=%2F)) | Subscription |

### 2. Spokeo

### 3. Spy Dialer

- Why it is on the list: Sells people-search records. Its price rows give no per-1,000 figure in dollars that we can compare, so it follows the priced entries.
