When the internet in Iran goes dark, phone lines stay up. Dial98 connects you to any landline or mobile in Iran — at a fair price, with billing that never rounds up.
A 65-second call costs 65 seconds — not 2 minutes. Most competitors round every call up to the next minute (some to two). Rounding is where this industry hides its margin. We refuse.
Your call arrives in Iran from a Canadian number we own — a normal +1 604 number, not a blocked or scrambled string of digits. Dial98 is outbound-only today: you can call out, but that number does not yet receive calls back.
We terminate to Iran's phone network — landline and mobile. App-to-app calls die with every blackout; phone lines are the connection that stays.
No connection fee. No setup fee per call. No expiring credit surprises. The rate the app shows you before you dial is the rate you pay.
No plan, no subscription, no minimum term, no connection fee and no per-call surcharge. You buy credit, you call, the credit goes down by the second.
Ring-outs, busy tones and failed routes are never charged. The rate for the number you are dialling — and how many minutes your balance covers — is shown in the app before the call connects.
Your balance stays yours for as long as your account is open. Top up on dial98.com whenever you need more.
