Problem
Many people need to stay in touch with family and friends abroad, but traditional international calling services often require the recipient to have internet access, a smartphone, or expensive carrier plans, making affordable voice communication inaccessible for a large portion of the global population.
Solution
Talk360 offers a mobile app that lets users place high‑quality voice calls to any mobile or landline number worldwide over the public telephone network. Because the call is routed through the carrier’s voice infrastructure, the person being called does not need internet, a smartphone, or a special app. Users purchase call credits in their local currency using more than 60 online payment options or over 1.25 million offline points of sale, ensuring payment accessibility across diverse markets. The app provides real‑time rate lookup, low per‑minute pricing, and a free one‑minute trial call to help users start quickly. All calls are encrypted and managed through Talk360’s cloud platform, which tracks usage and balances credit automatically.
Target Audience
