If you find yourself traveling overseas a lot, then chances are you have a huge cell phone bill. Hotel phone charges and International roaming rates can break your travel budget in one phone call. Over the last couple of years, the savviest of travelers have been renting International Cell Phones with International SIM cards for their trips in order to get control of their overseas phone costs.

If you are concerned about how your family members will contact you when you are abroad and how much you’ll spend on these calls you should check out International calling cards. You can take your local cell phone with you and buy a France SIM Card, for example if you go to France, a China SIM Card if you go to China, or a UK SIM card if you go to UK .

The benefits of international calling cards are obvious:

Cost savings:

An international roaming SIM card will save you 60 to 80% compared to local SIM cards. By using an international SIM card, you can spend more money on your traveling instead of paying high phone bills.

Coverage:

GSM technology is available in over 160 countries, but whether or not your existing cell phone will work in your destination country depends on your cell phone model.  Check to see what frequencies your destination country offers and make sure they are compatible with your phone.  You don’t want to take your phone with you only to find out that it doesn’t work!

Hassle free:

International SIM cards are post paid, which means you will never have to worry about your airtime running out during a call or topping your card up during your trip.  Managing the airtime of prepaid cards is tough, especially when you’re incurring roaming rates. Many global SIM card providers also give you the option of purchasing airtime credits in advance where you can save on airtime rates, in most cases up to an additional 20%.

Secure:

A reliable Global SIM card provider should provide you with the ability to manage your account securely with a unique password and username.
