Ideal when both people are online in the same app. Breaks down for landlines, banks, insurers, customer service, and anyone without reliable data.

  • Great quality when both sides have the app + internet
  • Receiver must have the same app and be online
  • Cannot reliably reach landlines / service desks

Free feels free — until the person you need isn’t on that network.

Telecom Telecom

Traditional mobile / carrier calling. Works to any number, but international rates often price people out. Not durable for frequent cross-border calls.

Traditional mobile / carrierRoaming & international add-ons
  • Reaches any mobile or landline on the phone network
  • International / roaming can be very expensive
