Yolla is a straightforward prepaid calling app for iOS and Android that reaches mobiles and landlines in 190+ countries. Its rates page says calls start at $0.04 per minute, Yolla-to-Yolla calls are always free, and international texts cost $0.15 per message. Yolla says buying credit on yollacalls.com with PayPal or a bank card saves up to 20%, and inviting friends can earn up to $50 in free credits. You can also place web calls from a computer, which helps when your phone is busy or low on battery. The site highlights Nigeria, Eritrea, Kenya, Ghana, Tanzania and Jamaica as top destinations, which points to its main audience. The weak spot is price: $0.04 per minute is the lowest rate it advertises, while Google Voice, BOSS Revolution and TextNow list cheaper rates to several popular countries, and Yolla's exact rate depends on the country you call from.
