Additionally pre-paid phone card rates remain constant no matter what time or day the call is placed.

The customer dials a local or toll-free access number shown on the card.
The VoIP gateway, which is connected to the access number, answers the call and with the assistance of the IVR server prompts the caller to enter his PIN number.

After validating the PIN through the VoIP billing server, the VoIP gateway announces to the caller his account balance and invites him to dial a destination number.

Upon entering such number, the VoIP gateway announces the amount of calling time available and connects the caller to the destination number.

During the conversation, the VoIP gateway converts voice signal to data packets and routes them to the terminating gateway (owned by the call termination VoIP carrier).

Upon call completion, the billing server records complete CDR information for the call that could be used for billing, reporting and analysis.
