International students save money with phone cards

September 6th, 2009

“I’ll be in the USA for the next year.  What is the best way for me to call my family at home?”

Phone cards have always been a great way to make affordable phone calls all over the world.  For students who are looking to stay within a budget, phone cards can be the best way to get the most minutes for your money.  Here are 3 good reasons why you should consider using a phone card instead of any other calling plan:

#1 - You’re not tied into a calling plan with a phone card.

With phone cards, you can talk as much or as little as you’d like without committing to a monthly usage amount.  If you no longer need a phone card, there’s no plan to cancel.  It’ one less thing you need to think about when you’re getting ready to go home.

#2 - You can use a phone card from any kind of phone.

ZapTel’s phone cards can be used from a home, mobile, dorm, or pay phone with the same dialing instructions.  The only thing to keep in mind is that there is an additional per call surcharge when you call from a pay phone (it is mandated by the FCC).  Plus, you can set up some ZapTel phone cards to make calls from your computer.  Click here to read more about ZapTel’s internet dialing options.

#3 - You can buy only as much time as you need to stay within your budget.

Prepaid phone cards are a great way to stay within a budget.  You can buy just the calling time you need.  If you need more, you can buy more.  If you don’t need calling time, you’re not committed to buying more time.
