Credit Call is an app for cheap international calls for everyone. Enjoy calling abroad like never before!
• No internet required for calling – it is all regular phone calls!
• Cheap: international calls starting at 0.02$/minute.
• No cuts or breaks as with internet (VoIP) calls (e.g. Skype or Viber).
• Download and call: All you need is the app, no SIM card switching or operator calls (like with Lebara or Lyca).
• Top up as you need, no subscription or contracts required.
• Always available: call abroad from wherever, whenever you want!
• You always know how much you pay, and how much credit you still have.


HOW IT WORKS: CALLBACKS IN SHORT
It’s simple – rather than letting you call (and pay), we call instead of you:
1) Tell the app who you want to call.
2) We call you with a regular incoming phone call. Name of the person you are calling appears, so that you know whom have you dialed.
3) After answering the incoming call, Credit Call dials the called person (also a classic phone call), and connects you.
Since you are connected as with a regular phone call, the person you called does NOT need to have internet connection or have Credit Call installed. They don’t even know you are using Credit Call – your call appears as every other regular phone call, with your own number of course.


DATA USAGE
First of all, you need to download the app (free). We do our best to make it as small as possible – to save both your memory and data bundles. For calling, you only need a miniature amount of data to let the server know you want to call (1kb). The call is then made by server WITHOUT using any of your data. Fast internet or Wi-Fi connection is not required.
Interesting information: standard call via Skype, WhatsApp etc (“VoIP services”) require at least 20kb per second (!) – so for a 1 single minute of calling, it takes about 1MB of your bundle – 1000 times more than what we need to dial.
What’s more: we are working on completely data-free app. Soon, you will be able to do even the dial request via SMS!


TOPPING UP
Before you can start calling or when your balance is running low, simply add credit via the Apple Pay platform. Due to Apple Pay transaction costs, topped up amount is lower than the paid amount. To receive the full amount please top up via Credit Call website: http://www.creditcallapp.com/buy-international-call-credit.html

ALL IN ALL:
Call Nigeria, India, Mexico or United states from 0.02$/minute! What’s more: call landlines for even less! Unlike with VOIP calling (Skype, Viber, etc) which require a lot of internet, Credit Call enables no data calls. Some providers (e.g. Lebara, Lyca mobile and others) require you to change your SIM – Credit Call doesn’t! We also do not do empty promises about free calls, with us you always know how much you pay.
