Connectbase has introduced Linkbase, a new feature within its Connected World platform, designed to automate and digitize the connection approval process between buyers and sellers in the global connectivity ecosystem. The launch would represent a major shift in how service providers initiate, manage, and scale commercial relationships, replacing outdated, manual email-based workflows with real-time, programmatic approval mechanisms.
As the self-described ‘industry cloud for connectivity,’ Connectbase continues to evolve its platform to address inefficiencies in the telecom and data services marketplace. Linkbase streamlines the partner engagement process by enabling providers to define policies, target specific partners, and approve transactions digitally – eliminating ambiguity and minimizing transactional risk. The goal is to make quoting, pricing, and ordering faster, more reliable, and more scalable for all stakeholders.
Trey Willis, Chief Technology Officer at Connectbase, emphasized the importance of trust in the connectivity marketplace. “Linkbase reinforces that trust by digitizing approvals – eliminating ambiguity, reducing risk, and enabling both parties to transact confidently and quickly,” he said.

With Linkbase, Connectbase enhances the serviceability and quoting process through smart matching capabilities that account for region, product types, and access methods. Key features include simplified outreach using customizable profiles, consent-based connections requiring mutual approval, and robust analytics for monitoring quotation volume and partner interactions.
Currently, the Connectbase platform profiles 2.7 billion locations across more than 150 countries and supports over 400 providers. By adding Linkbase, the company aims to empower its users to accelerate partnerships, optimize operational efficiency, and drive revenue – while maintaining the transparency and governance required to build a scalable, trustworthy ecosystem.
