Make STD and local calls using Ringo
Ringo, a popular voice calling app that arrived in India earlier this year, on Thursday announced that it is introducing new tariff charges for voice calls in the country. The company says that using its services, people will be able to make calls across the country - local as well as STD -- at Rs. 0.19 per minute. Ringo claims that users can reduce their talk time cost by up to 90 percent using its service.
Ringo, a popular voice calling app that arrived in India earlier this year, on Thursday announced that it is introducing new tariff charges for voice calls in the country.
The company says that using its services, people will be able to make calls across the country - local as well as STD -- at Rs. 0.19 per minute. Ringo claims that users can reduce their talk time cost by up to 90 percent using its service.
A user first needs to download Ringo app, and tap on the person he or she wishes to call. Instead of the user talking to that person directly, as the company mentions on its website, Ringo calls that person and connects the user to that contact.
For this reason, recipients don't need to have the app installed on their handset, and voice calls work without a reliable data connection.
"Our vision has been to make calling across the globe simple, seamless and low-cost for the masses. Our local calling service is not only the cheapest in India right now, but it is also free of typical telecom-related hassles such as STD charges and differential pricing," said Bhavin Turakhia, CEO and Founder of Ringo.
"In a country where 3G penetration is not fairly high throughout, we also have a strong edge over Internet telephony apps, as Ringo calls do not use data, and are comparable in price.
