NOTE: When initiating the international conference call, the leader will enter his/her own unique leader passcode whereas all other conference call participants enter the very same participant passcode.

How to host your International Conference Call
Upon account activation, you will be issued a numerical leader passcode and PIN number (for you, as the account holder and leader/moderator of the conference) as well as a participant passcode. Additional sets of leader passodes and participant passcodes can be issued if you have other groups in your organization that would benefit from this service for other projects.
1. All participants dial the toll free access number associated
with the country from which they will place their call.
2. All participants are prompted to enter their passcode.
NOTE: When initiating the international conference call, the leader
will enter his/her own unique leader passcode and PIN number
whereas all other conference call participants enter the very same
participant passcode.
3. Everyone is connected and your conference call can begin.
As the leader/operator, you have the option of recording the conference call. This is a free service which simply requires that you press [ * 2 ]. Our system begins recording immediately. After the call is complete, you will receive a Recorded Playback E-mail with instructions on how to listen to the recording.
Who Pays for the Call?
The account owner pays for the call; that is, whoever sets up the account. Callers who dial the U.S. toll free number are billed at 6.9 cents per minute while callers who dial the Canada toll free access number are billed at 10.9 cents per minute. International toll free access rates vary from country to country.
Participants who dial the U.S. toll free access number or the international toll free access numbers from outside the U.S. are not charged. Some account owners choose to provide conference participants with the U.S. toll access number. When this occurs, the flat rate will always be 4.5¢ per minute / per participant. This strategy is useful for participants who have lost cost and reliable means for calling the U.S. The distinct advantage, however, of offering toll free access (or dialing out is that it enables you to expand your audience to conference participants who might not otherwise choose to join the call.
