Vonage Extends Free Calling to U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico on the Vonage Mobile(R) App
HOLMDEL, New Jersey, May 17, 2012/PRNewswire/ --
App now also features new photo and location sharing
Vonage Holdings Corp. (NYSE: VG) announced the extension of their free calling
promotion on the Vonage Mobile(R) application. Calls made from the app from anywhere in
the world to any phone in the United States, Canada or Puerto Rico will continue to be
free for a limited time[1, 2].
Additionally, Vonage has continually improved the Vonage Mobile app to enhance ease of
use and performance. The most recent version of the app enables photo and location
sharing[1]. Vonage plans to provide additional features in the coming months, including
Bluetooth(TM) functionality and a low-cost international roaming capability.
Vonage Mobile, the company's global calling and texting app for iPhone(R) and
Android(TM), lets users make free high-definition calls and send free texts to other
Vonage Mobile users worldwide. The app works over Wi-Fi, 3G and 4G wireless data networks.
When calling those who do not yet have the app, Vonage Mobile provides ultra-low cost
international calling with rates that are on average 70% less than major mobile carriers
and 30% less than Skype(TM)[3]. Users can instantly add calling credit directly from the
app through iTunes(R) or Android Market(TM) in increments of $4.99 and $9.99.
"The response UK consumers have had to Vonage Mobile is a testament to the
improvements it makes upon current calling and texting solutions," said Nick Lazzaro, SVP,
Product Development, Information Technology and Managing Director of Mobile Services at
Vonage. "The enhancements we have already made to the app and the new capabilities we
expect to add only further help meet the mobile communication needs of this expanding
Vonage Mobile community."
