Buying contacts from Data.com

Kentico EMS required

Features described on this page require the Kentico EMS license.

The Data.com integration stops working as of 1st September 2016, because Data.com terminates third party access to their API. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Data.com integration allows you to buy contacts from Data.com. If you own a Data.com contact, you can access additional information — the Business phone and E‑mail fields.

The system always buys contacts using the Data.com account associated with your Kentico user account — identified by the credentials that you entered when accessing the Data.com tab for the first time. See Searching Data.com for contacts for more information.

When you buy a contact, it becomes available for all users who share the same Data.com account.

Use the following steps to buy contacts while searching for contact information on the Data.com tab:

  1. Click Buy this contact.

    • A confirmation dialog opens.
      Buying a Data.com contact
  2. If you don’t have enough points to Buy the contact right away:

    1. Click Purchase points. The Data.com website opens.
    2. Log in using your Data.com credentials.
    3. Specify the amount of points you would like to purchase.
  3. When you have enough points to purchase the contact, click Buy to complete the process.

Once you own a contact in the Data.com business directory, the Business phone and E-mail attribute values become visible in the Data.com has column.
