What to Know Before You Buy
Prepaid calling cards give you a PIN and access number to make international calls at fixed rates. When you buy a card, your balance is stored in the provider's system. To call, dial the access number, enter your PIN, then dial the international number.
Watch out for hidden fees. The FCC warns that many cards include connection fees per call, weekly maintenance fees, and billing increments that round up your time. A "cheap" $0.02/min card with a $0.99 connection fee costs $1.01 for a 1-minute call.
Compare before you buy. See our 7 best international calling cards comparison for real rates, fee breakdowns, and which providers to avoid.
Phone Cards vs VoIP Apps
Traditional calling cards route your voice over telephone networks after you dial an access number. VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) apps convert your voice into data packets that travel over the internet, connecting to traditional phone networks only at the destination. The VoIP approach typically results in lower costs because internet transmission is less expensive than traditional telephony infrastructure.
| Traditional Cards | VoIP Apps | |
|---|---|---|
| Internet required | No | Yes |
| Typical cost | Higher (carrier rates + fees) | Lower (internet routing) |
| Hidden fees | Common | Less common |
| Setup process | Access number + PIN | App download or browser |
| Call quality | Consistent | Depends on connection |
| Purchase options | Retail stores, online | Online only |
