Delivery and integration
Delivery is expressed as stock: an offer with numbers is buyable now, an offer without is not. No delivery time and no success percentage appear on the pages read, though some offers carry a rate field. Integration is the strong side: the same guest API serves developers before they register, and the FAQ carries an API section and a page on purchasing numbers through it.
