Keep calling and keep saving with PennyTalk

You’ll see huge savings on international calls versus AT&T Wireless. With PennyTalk Mobile, a 20-minute call to a landline in the U.K. is just 40¢ (2¢ a minute). The same call with AT&T Wireless would cost $29.80 ($1.49 a minute on the standard non-plan rate). That’s nearly 98% savings with PennyTalk Mobile!

How can I be sure I’m using PennyTalk Mobile for international calls -- and not my AT&T calling plan?

There are several ways to tell whether you are calling with the PennyTalk Mobile app:

  • Once you launch the app you should see “PennyTalk Mobile” at the top of the keypad screen. The keypad itself has yellow number keys to distinguish it from the iPhone's standard keypad.
  • When you place a call by tapping a phone number from your Contacts (or by dialing an international phone number directly in the app keypad and tapping Call), you should see “PennyTalk Mobile” displayed on your iPhone screen as your call goes through.
  • As your call is being connected, you should hear the message "Thank you for using PennyTalk Mobile." This lets you know that the call is going over the IDT Global Network at PennyTalk’s low rates.

Please note that if you have ended your international call and would like to make another, you must launch the Pennytalk Mobile app again.
