iBasis upgrades Pingo VoIP service

Global VoIP leader, iBasis, has upgraded its online calling service, Pingo, which provides VoIP calls via any fixed-line or mobile phone, without the need for additional equipment or software.

iBasis has added an interactive voice response system to Pingo, which lets users know when their account balance is low. The account can be topped up simply by pushing the star key.

Enhanced speed-dialing capabilities have also been introduced for both consumers and business users.

Pingo Business allows SMEs with up to 999 employees to make international calls on an on-demand basis.

The service allows account limits to be set for individual employees, with balances and usage managed through a centralised account.

Pingo users can save on calls to both landline and mobile phones in most countries across the world. Mobile phone users can save up to 90 percent on international calls.
