Singtel ties up with Airtel to allow prepaid mobile customers to make high quality voice calls to India

Singtel has launched a partnership in Singapore with Airtel that enables Singtel prepaid mobile customers with smartphones to make high-quality calls to India via the Airtel Talk app.

Previously only accessible to credit card holders, Airtel Talk can now be utilised by Singtel prepaid mobile customers who purchase hi!India plans with their prepaid credits. Carried via normal IDD lines, Airtel Talk calls offer superior call quality.

Hi!India plans charge from S$5 for 100 minutes (S$0.05/min) to S$12 for 300 minutes (S$0.04/min). No extra costs are involved. All data charges are waived for customers connecting to Airtel Talk on a 3G or 4G connection.

Ajay Chitkara, Director & CEO, Global Voice & Data Business, Bharti Airtel said, “Our Airtel Talk app enables users to make convenient and affordable voice calls to landline or mobile numbers to India and across the world. With this partnership, we have eliminated the hassle associated with calling cards and credit card requirements for Singtel prepaid mobile customers.”
