We enjoy Skype’s low-cost to free services so much that we’ve replaced our phones with it, but we can’t be online all the time. The solution: Skype To Go.
What is Skype To Go?
Skype To Go lets you make international calls from your mobile or landline phones. What makes it better is that it charges the same rates as your regular Skype calls, unlike standard international calls that usually cost higher than local ones. You can easily make Skype your temporary phone network for your calls.
What do I need?
- A Skype-verified phone number, mobile or landline. See if the service is available in your country.
- Your contacts’ Skype To Go numbers
- A small Skype Credit or subscription for up to 30 Skype To Go numbers. It’s free if you register only one number.
- A mobile or landline number
How do I use it?
It’s easy! Just sign in to Skype.com and set up your Skype To Go numbers by entering your contact’s name, phone number, and country. No need to download anything.
Next step is to register your own phone numbers. This is important because registering prevents anyone from using your numbers without your knowledge. You can register up to 20 different numbers. Select the number you’re using and the country you’re calling from.
How much do calls cost?
Skype To Go makes all your calls local, so international call rates are just the same as when using Skype on your computer or as an app. Take note that local charges may apply when you make calls to your Skype To Go numbers.
Skype always connects people wherever they are, and it continues to bring people closer with its Skype To Go service. If you’re always on the go but still want to stay connected even when offline, use Skype To Go for international phone calls.
