Using calling cards might have once been our go-to solution to cut down on expenses, but with a calling APP like JusCall, calling cards can be a thing of the past. Here's why choosing the JusCall APP is your safest bet.

Perhaps you're studying abroad and are planning to reach your close ones，or maybe you are planning to make International calls while traveling，or simply your country's phone rates are just off the charts, purchasing a calling card or calling plan is the best way to save money in the short and long run.

However, with dozens, if not hundreds, of calling solutions and calling cards out there, how do you know which is the best international calling card for you? Here are the reasons why you should opt for the JusCall APP instead of purchasing a calling card.

When choosing the best international calling card for your cell phone, you should be aware of the following:

#1: Trusting Your Calling Company

How trustworthy is the company from which you purchased your calling card? This is an important question you need to ask yourself. As the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has pointed out, when purchasing an international phone card you risk the chance of falling victim to false advertisement and added costs. You also risk doing business with a card issuer that might go out of business, leaving you with a useless calling card.

"Ads from certain prepaid card providers claim that buyers can make hundreds or thousands of minutes of calls to certain advertised destinations for just a few dollars," according to the FCC. "In reality, using these particular cards could make calls for only a fraction of those minutes due to multiple hidden fees and surcharges." In fact, in 2015, the FCC fined six companies with a whopping $30 million for deceptive marketing of calling cards.

#2: Not Knowing How Much you'll End up Paying

Calling card rates tend to contain undisclosed fees and inaccurate rate listings. Your card balance can be eaten away by long-call charges or poor connections as well as the rounding up of your call length. There can even be a connection fee regardless of the rate per minute, which means you might end up spending more money on more minutes in which the call was being connected than on the minutes in which you actually spoke to your call's recipient. Many companies even charge you when your call doesn't go through or whenever you hang up the phone after using the card, also known as "post-call" or "hang-up" fees.

#3: The Calling Process Is Complicated

Many people using international calling cards for cell phones complain about having trouble figuring out how to make a call. After all, when you use a calling card in order to make a call, you first need to dial a toll-free access number, followed by your PIN number, and only then the actual number you wish to dial. With dozens of extra numbers for you to dial and a chance that calling a local number may not work when you're abroad, there's no wonder using a calling card can get very complicated.

What JusCall Offers

With JusCall you can make calls to landlines and mobile numbers in the most simple and convenient way. Since JusCall is connected to your phone book, you need only choose the number you'd like to dial to reach your contacts instantly.

Enter the phone number in full international format – (+)(Country Code)(Area Code without the leading 0's)(Phone Number) and JusCall will automatically place the call.
