The service will provide consumers and enterprises with simple and immediate access to conference calling services, and enables users to host up to 1,000 callers on an unlimited number of six-hour conference calls.
“We are proud to be supporting the growth of the economies in Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa and helping people to meet, connect, and do business,” said David Erickson, founder and CEO at FreeConferenceCall.com.
“We have selected these markets because we believe our services can have the greatest impact on local people and result in more opportunities to expand our presence in Africa.”
FreeConferenceCall.com claims to be the fifth largest audio conferencing provider worldwide by volume of minutes and Josh Lowenthal, COO at FreeConferenceCall.com, said that partnering with the carrier community is the foundation of its business.
“We are looking to expand our relationships with African carriers, as our revenue sharing model creates new opportunities to monetise local infrastructure and drive profitability,” he said.
“A partnership with FreeConferenceCall.com requires no capex, no opex, and no receivables risk. As the OTT on the PSTN, we offer a no-lose mechanism for regional fixed and mobile operators to bolster voice traffic using existing infrastructure.”
