Can I use international calling with Lifeline?
Yes. Lifeline covers domestic service; international calling is added and paid for separately. Adding it does not affect your Lifeline eligibility.
Who uses international calling?
Families with relatives abroad, workers who call home, and students studying in the United States all use international add-ons to stay in touch for less than standard per-minute rates. Messaging and video apps over Wi-Fi are another free option when both people have internet access.
Can I call from a prepaid or Lifeline line?
Yes. International add-ons work on both Lifeline and prepaid lines. The add-on is a separate purchase, and it does not change your monthly plan or your Lifeline eligibility.
How do I check my international balance?
Your remaining international minutes or credit appear in My Account. You can also call us at (918) 931-0991 for your balance and to add more.
How much does international calling cost?
Cost depends on the country and whether you call a landline or a mobile phone. We confirm the exact rate or package price for your destination before you buy, so there are no surprises on your bill. Request your rate with the form above or by calling (918) 931-0991.
Can I text internationally?
International texting depends on the destination and your add-on. Ask us when you request rates, or use messaging apps over Wi-Fi at no extra cost.
Do I need a special phone?
No. Any phone active on our network can use an international add-on.
