Skype replacements we tested →FAQ
Straight answers.
Do I need an app or an account?
No. NomaPhone runs in your browser on phone or laptop. Your phone card code is your access: keep it like cash. It's also emailed to you, and if you lose it we can re-send it to the email you paid with.
Does NomaPhone give me a phone number?
No. NomaPhone is for outgoing voice calls only. You don't get a number, people can't call you back on NomaPhone, and you can't keep or port a number.
Can I receive SMS or 2FA / OTP codes?
No. NomaPhone doesn't receive SMS or calls, so it can't receive verification codes. What it can do is let you call your bank or carrier by voice when a code isn't arriving.
How much does a call cost?
The rate depends on the country and on whether you call a landline or a mobile. It's shown on screen as you dial, per minute, and billed per second. US and Canada cost $0.03/min, toll-free numbers included. Calls last up to 30 minutes each; you can dial again.
Which countries can I call?
60 countries today, listed on the rates page. Emergency numbers can't be called, and premium-rate numbers are blocked.
Does credit expire? Can I get a refund?
Credit never expires and you can top up the same card. Unused credit can be refunded any time, free, to the original payment method.
Pick up the handset.
