Questions
Calling Canada: common questions
How much does it cost to call Canada?
From $0.0061 per minute on the marketplace right now: country-wide rate from $0.0061. The rate depends on the number you call, so price the exact number to see every route's rate for it. PacketExchange adds one fee: 2% of the rate via the API or Dialer, or 0.5% over your own SIP trunk, never more than $0.001 per call.
Which caller ID options are there for calls to Canada?
Full CLI on 7 routes (the caller's real number passes through intact) and Mixed CLI on 1 route (caller ID is not guaranteed: it may pass through, be shown as a local number, or be dropped). Caller-ID handling is the seller's declaration for the route; you can check it on a real handset with a caller-ID test, $0.50 per test and charged only if the route rang.
How are calls to Canada billed?
6 routes bill per second (1/1), the rest per minute (60/60) and in 6/6 steps (the first 6s, then every 6s). Billing is prepaid: you top up a balance from $5 by card or crypto, or $100 by bank wire, and each call draws on it. There is no monthly fee or minimum.
Who carries the calls?
Carriers who list routes on the PacketExchange marketplace. Sellers stay anonymous and the exchange settles every call itself, so you compare routes on price, caller ID, billing increment and the quality each seller states, and buy from the exchange.
How do I start sending calls to Canada?
Create an account, top up from $5, connect a route to Canada from the marketplace, then place calls with POST /api/v1/comms/calls or send them over your own SIP trunk. Connecting a route has no setup fee: you pay per minute from your balance.
