How it works
How calling works
Add credit
Top up your balance with a card or wallet. Credit is prepaid, so there is no bill at the end of the month and no contract to leave.
Dial from the app
Enter an international number or pick a contact. The per-minute rate for that destination is shown before the call connects.
They just answer
The call arrives as a normal phone call. Nothing to install, no account, and no data connection needed on their side.
What you need
Your number stays your number
Bella calls go out over the internet from the app, but they land as ordinary phone calls. You keep your SIM, your number and your carrier exactly as they are — Bella sits alongside them rather than replacing anything.
- Works on Wi-Fi or mobile data
- Call mobiles and landlines internationally
- Credit is prepaid — you cannot overspend
- Calls carry a maximum duration set by your balance
Questions
Calling questions
How does international calling work?
You top up your balance, open the app and dial. Calls are charged by the minute against the credit you have already added, so there is no monthly bill and nothing to cancel.
Who can I call?
Mobile and landline numbers internationally. The person you are calling does not need the app, an account or an internet connection — their phone rings like any other call.
Do I need a new SIM to make calls?
No. Calls travel over your internet connection, on wifi or mobile data, so there is no SIM to swap and no new number to hand out.
Do I need an internet connection to make a call?
Yes, on your side. Calls go out from the app over wifi or mobile data, which is what makes the rate possible. The person you are calling needs nothing at all — their phone rings like it would for any other call.
What does a call cost?
Rates are per minute and depend on the destination. The published rate for every country Bella reaches is on the calling rates page, and the rate for the number you have dialled is shown in the app before the call connects.
What happens if my credit runs out during a call?
Your balance sets a maximum length for each call, worked out before it connects, so a call cannot run past the credit you hold. Top up and dial again to carry on.
Is the person I call charged anything?
Not by us. They receive an ordinary incoming call and their own carrier treats it as one, on whatever terms they already have. Everything Bella charges comes off your balance, at the rate shown before the call connects.
Can I call emergency services with Bella Mobile?
No. Bella Mobile is not a replacement for your phone's own emergency calling and must not be relied on to reach the emergency services.
Always keep another way to call them — your normal SIM and number will reach emergency services even with no credit and no data plan.
One account, both services
Calling credit and eSIM data sit on the same balance, in the same app. Create an account with an email address, or download the app and start there.
