“We promise to continue delivering a focused, simple international calling solution that combines both the lowest rates on the market and the highest call quality, no matter where our users are, or to where they might be calling,” said Nymgo CMO Suzie Khattab. “We certainly believe that new app features such as country rate finders and loyalty initiatives like our ‘Hello Points’ will not only make the Nymgo calling experience a frustration-free one compared to other VoIP services, but a more fun and rewarding one altogether.”
Nymgo’s loyalty points system, or ‘Hello Points’, means that callers can get some free credits for their account. Users must have $60 in credit and they get points when they make a purchase or enrol friends. As a reward, when enough points are gathered, they can be turned into extra credits or free SMS.
Current iPhone, Android and PC users can download the app from the App Store, Google Play or Nymgo site. Can Nymgo take on the likes of Skype with quality calling?
