Viber Activity Checker Use Cases for List Hygiene and Risk Review

For a re-engagement or review team, those same rows are the entire job. Viber Activity Checker is the ZelNum page that supports this job: Viber Activity Checker.
Quick answer
The export splits rows into active, inactive, and not on Viber. Hot use cases (campaign, marketing, support) want the active rows. Cold use cases (re-engagement, risk review, account hygiene) focus on the inactive rows. Both sides read the same file, and the activity check is one of the few tools where the quiet half has consumers too.
The hot read: reachable is the goal
For campaign and marketing teams, the active tier is the list. The inactive tier is separated out so the send budget goes to accounts that will actually be seen.
- Campaign prep. Active rows get the Viber campaign; inactive rows wait for re-engagement.
- List hygiene. Invalid and unknown rows get repaired or retired, with the reason logged.
- Support routing. An active account is a better bet for a time-sensitive message than a quiet one.
The cold read: inactive is not dead
For re-engagement, risk, and review teams, the inactive tier is the work.
- Re-engagement. Inactive rows are a win-back list. An account that has not opened the app in ninety days is a number with a profile, not a person waiting for your message, but it is also a person who used to be reachable.
- Account review. A row that moved from active to inactive between runs is a flag. The timestamp is what makes the flag visible.
- Suppression decisions. Rows that stay inactive across multiple runs are candidates for suppression, with evidence.
Decision rules
| Tier | Hot use case | Cold use case |
|---|---|---|
| Active | Send. | Monitor; a drop to inactive is a flag. |
| Inactive | Separate out. | Re-engage, review, or suppress. |
| Not on Viber | Route elsewhere. | Route elsewhere. |
| Unknown | Retry. | Retry. |
Mistakes to avoid
- Suppressing the cold rows instead of re-engaging them. Inactive is not dead. It is a list waiting for a different message.
- Sending the inactive tier to the campaign. They are not reachable in any useful sense, and the budget is better spent elsewhere.
- Reading one snapshot without history. The drift between runs is the signal; a single run is just a state.
FAQ
Who benefits from the inactive rows?
Re-engagement, risk, and review teams. The inactive tier is their work list, and the activity check is one of the few tools where the quiet half has real consumers.
What is the difference between inactive and not on Viber?
Inactive means the account exists but has gone quiet. Not on Viber means there is no account behind the number. They are different lists with different actions.
How do I spot account drift?
Compare runs over time. A row that moves from active to inactive between checks is a flag, and the checked timestamp is what makes the movement visible.
How often should I re-check?
Quarterly as a baseline, and re-check before any big campaign. Activity decays on its own schedule.
Can I use activity for risk review?
Carefully. Activity says the account is in use at check time. It does not establish ownership or standing, which live in the platform’s own data.
