Call Via SMS

Raketu, has created an SMS-Text Driven VoIP Service called RakSMS calling. The service enables mobile device users to make phone-to-phone voice over IP (VoIP) Internet calls with no computer or Internet connection required. It does not even need a GPRS connection to initiate a call.

A mobile phone user in the UK sends a text message from their mobile phone to Raketu's UK local number with the appropriate calling information in the message and Raketu connects the two phones. The Raketu rate for the call will be the regular RakWeb calling rate, or $0.115 per minute. Raketu claims mobile users can save more than 35% compared to Jajah's rate for the same call.
