Brink · Jan 22, 2018

With Skype to Skype calling, you can place internet calls to friends and family who use Skype. But did you know that you can make calls to contacts who aren’t on Skype? Calling with Skype lets you make calls to landlines or mobiles—to anywhere, from any device or browser. Low cost calling plans—available for most countries—means you can talk more for less. Skype Number and the new Skype To Go lets you receive calls from landlines to your Skype. And with Skype Translator, language barriers are a thing of the past, as you can have calls translated into your preferred language.

Choosing a plan—subscription or Skype Credit?

To start making calls to a landline or mobile from Skype, you will need either a Skype subscription or Skype Credit. Choosing between a subscription or Skype Credit depends on your calling needs.
