The festive season is upon us; however, there is more to it than purchasing Christmas gifts. Often, loved ones are not based in our hometowns and are often scattered across the continent. While a simple call or SMS may be worth more than any gift… calls to various different countries across the continent can be costly – especially during the festive season.
According to the team at AfriCallShop: “When looking at the telecoms market the cost of call rates as well as the rate of a standard SMS is predominantly higher than any other form of communication, despite the low quality of services offered by telecoms operators and service providers.”
When looking at the market, research by AfriCallShop has found the following:
– 70 percent of consumers have faced an issue with the service they are using to call worldwide.
– 80 percent of consumers complain about the rates of the service the service.
“Based on the study, we conceptualised and developed AfriCallShop. AfriCallShop is a mobile VoIP start up, located in France, which provides international call and SMS services. Our goal is to allow anyone to communicate with their family, friends as well as the entire world. We offer our customers a premium voice service and an efficient system for sending SMSes at low prices,” said co founders Abdoul O and Abdel N.
