iPhone is now adorned with another easy-to-use app, this time from Vonage. the Vonage Time to Call allows iPhone users to make international calls to more than 190 countries using its pay-per-call facility.
The app allows users to make 15 minutes of international calls at a comparatively lower cost, with the facility of direct payments through iTunes. as a trial, it is also offering a free 15 minute international call to any of the 100 pre-listed countries, which can be activated by merely downloading the app.
“with the launch of Time to Call, Vonage has simplified the process of making affordable international calls for iPhone users around the globe,” said Marc Lefar, CEO of Vonage. “Not only does this service offer tremendous value for international callers dialing from their home countries, it also provides a great solution for international travelers who want to avoid the bill shock associated with international calls and roaming charges when they call back home. Time to Call requires far less effort than calling card services and other international calling plan options, and is substantially less expensive than dialing direct through a mobile carrier. It’s simple, fast and fair.”
Vonage Time to Call app, the company asserts, keeps international calling quick and easy. Users can download the app, select the country for the call, purchase it by using their iTunes credentials and thus make an international call at cheaper rates. Call rates for the 100 prescribed countries vary from $0.99 to $1.99, irrespective of it being made to landline or mobile phone. Calls to 90 more countries can be added by paying up to $9.99 more. also, callers using this app need not be subscribers of the Vonage home phone service.
The Vonage Time to Call app is now available for download on 87 iTunes stores worldwide. the service works on Wi-Fi and is also accessible on 3G wireless networks in the U.S. and Canada, in which case carrier rates for a limited data plan may be applicable. Vonage is also said to be shortly launching this app for Android devices.
