Which Network is good for making international calls?

Which Network is good for making international calls?

I'm not sure what it costs to call US & Canada with your cellphone from Nigeria, so whether these are beneficial to you depends on that.

Here are some options I call Nigeria with, but they offer good features to call the US & Canada too.
They're VOIP (voice over IP - like skype, but calls & SMS only), so they require decent internet speeds.
These offer many payment options, but I guess Paypal, VISA & Mastercard should work for you.

1. Nairacalls.com - Their rates for US calling is $0.005/min (cell & landlines). Which is about 1 Naira/min. Canada is slightly more. Minimum reload is $10 (NGN 2,000 or so). Calls to Nigeria are $0.04/min (NGN 8 ).

2. Rynga.com - You get free US & Canada calling for 4 months with each reload. Minimum of about $11 (NGN 2200 +). They also have a mobile app that works decently. Calls to Nigeria are $0.053/min (NGN 11)

3. Also, you can try globfone.com. It is completely free for US calling. However, I've only tried it once, to see if it worked. It did, but I don't need it, as I have unlimited local calling on my cellphone, like most do around here.

Hope one works for you.
