What About Using My Cell Phone When I Travel?
Cell phones are not always a viable solution for long distance calls. Some cell phone plans do not include nationwide long distance or international long distance. Further, your cell phone may not be a World Phone (doesn’t support GSM), and cannot be used outside of the USA. Even if you have a World Phone, chances are you’ll pay roaming fees and/or a very large per minute rate. This is why you should bring a prepaid calling card with you whenever you travel; it's a cheap alternative you can use with your cell phone or landline.

Tips for Using calling cards When You Travel
- Calling cards purchased over the Internet typically offer more competitive rates and higher quality connections; compared to calling cards that are purchased over the counter (OTC).
- Purchase lower denomination calling cards and try to use them up during a single phone call. This tip may help you avoid additional fees to receive the minutes you have paid for.
- Some calling cards will provide very different rates if used from a payphone or cellular phone. Likewise, calls originating from a country outside of the US and terminating in the US will have higher rates due to international surcharges.
- Make your purchase based upon the type of phone call you will be making:
- US domestic
- International
- Cellular
- Know how long your average phone call usually lasts so that you can select the appropriate calling card denomination (e.g. $5, $10, $20).
- Know the per minute rounding for any card you purchase. For example, three minute rounding means minutes are deducted from your card in blocks of three, even if you make a one minute phone call.
- If you are traveling outside of the US, make sure you know if your calling card will work internationally.
