How to find what you need

What you are looking at

Every listed rate is a starting price per minute. The number type matters: calling a landline in Mexico and calling a mobile in Mexico can be two different prices. A carrier or number prefix can also route differently, so the signed-in dialer checks the full number before calling.

Why prepaid pricing changes everything

Carrier international charges can be hard to predict before the bill arrives. Talkala works the other way around: check the starting rate, fund your account intentionally, and review the final full-number rate in the signed-in dialer before calling. On our carrier price benchmark, some checked routes came in up to 75x lower than carrier rates. See benchmark

When to start here vs. a country guide

Start here when your question is just about price. Go to a country guide when you also need the dialing code, want to know the best times to call, or need to understand whether the number you have is a landline or mobile.

Common questions

Questions about rates

Is the rate here the rate I will actually be charged?

The public rates page shows starting country rates. A carrier or number prefix can route differently, so the signed-in dialer shows the final rate for the full number before the call connects.

Are mobile and landline rates always the same?

Almost never. That is exactly why Talkala shows them separately. Lumping them together just hides the real cost.

Is there a monthly subscription for calling?

No. Calling is pay-as-you-go from the balance you loaded with calling credit. Dedicated phone numbers carry a small monthly fee, but that is a separate, optional feature.

Can I compare rates across countries?

Yes. Browse the country index or use the rates page to compare routes side by side, all before you even create an account.
