CallMyWay, a Costa Rican company, lanched an Internet Telephony Service (IP).
Local calls to landlines or cell phones will keep the same rate as the Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad, but international calls will have lower rates and calls between the company's customers are free.
The company is awaiting authorities to assign the numbers in order to begin marketing.
Raul Ibanez, manager of Amnet Costa Rica, said that for international calls the company promises improved rates and for calls between Amnet residential users the price will be minimal.
Costa Rica’s state-owned electricity and telecommunications provider has interfaced its network with Ticom and CallMyWay, two telecom companies offering VOIP services.
The two companies are the first to be interfaced after presenting their requests to the Costa Rica's Telecommunications Regulator (SUTEL).
Telecommunications company Yota will invest $500 million to expand to Latin America from 2010 onwards.
Yegor Ivanov, Yota's vice president, commented they have been approached by over 30 companies interested in their telephony and Internet services, even though they have not yet started operating in the country.
Market Overview. Internet access and applications. Benchmarking ICT developments in the Americas.
Information Society Statistical Profiles 2009: Americas, by International Telecommunication Union.
When it comes to information society developments in the Americas region, a promising development is mobile cellular uptake, and several of the region’s developing countries have a higher level of mobile penetration than its developed countries. During the past few years, mobile telephony has grown rapidly and is likely to exceed 100 per cent penetration in most countries in the near future. It is notable that no other region has such a strong presence of strategic investors, which account for three out of every four mobile subscriptions in Latin America and the Caribbean. The Americas region also stands out in terms of VoIP traffic, which has been growing steeply in Central and South America.
