VoIP stands for Voice over Internet Protocol. It is using your internet connection to make and receive telephone calls.
Traditional phone calls use the infrastructure that was laid down first in Australia by the Post Master General, then Telecom Australia and on to Telstra and other relatively newer arrivals like Optus, AAPT and Primus. They use copper wires in the ground to deliver voice communications, an aging, expensive and labour intensive network.
With the arrival of the internet with its greater bandwidth and download speeds, voice communications became possible applications to run alongside email and web browsing.
-
Without the need for these separate copper lines, costs can be reduced signifficantly.
-
A typical Telstra copper line will cost nearly $40 per month in line rental alone.
-
A VOIP line costs $7.95 per month.
-
Call costs are also reflect the new paradigm. Gone are phone rates based on limited interstate phone capacity of the past. Hence gone too are charges like flag fall and per minute national and international calls.
Using our VOIP Partner, Engin - Australia's biggest VOIP provider, we can offer rates like:
-
10c for a local call untimed
-
10c for a National call untimed
-
20c for an International Call untimed to most destinations
-
18c per minute to Mobiles.
-
Engin to Engin calls are also free. So if you have intrastate / interstate offices, call to each other are free.
