Frequently Asked Questions
- Q?What payment methods do you accept?
-
A.
We accept PayPal, Payoneer, Zelle, direct deposit, ACH and credit or debit card.
- Q?What languages do you support?
-
A.
We support English, Spanish and French. Other languages may be available upon request.
- Q?How much does it cost?
-
A.
It is difficult for us to provide a cost without knowing your exact needs because we try to customize your package so that you don’t end up paying for services you don’t need. Our small business users typically use less than $20 per week.
Since the discounts are built into our package structure, the minutes don’t expire and there are no monthly fees, clients generally purchase a package large enough to last two to three months. We also offer hybrid plans that combine the use of dedicated and non-dedicated agents. Contact us so that we can build a solution to best suit your needs.
Purchasing bundles is simple using PayPal or your credit or debit card. We never retain your card information.

No way! It would be virtually impossible for you to guess exactly how many minutes you would need every month and we never want you to feel cheated out of unused minutes or nervous about going over your minutes.
