VOIP.MS charges their calls based on a 6 seconds period increment. This applies for all countries except for Mexico where it applies a 60 seconds increment.

Here is a short explanation about how this works.

The Billing Increment is a call duration measurement unit expressed in seconds. 1 minute is devided on 10 periods of 6 seconds.


Lets say there is a rate of $0.50 USD per minute, then the user will be charged for 5 cents per each period of 6 seconds.

(0.05 USD )* (10 periods on a minute) = $0.50 USD per minute


10 periods of $0.05 in a minute

The system always registers the number of cycles of 6 seconds, except for Mexico, therefore if you make a call of 27 sec, you will be charged for 30 seconds as you are running in the 5th period of 6.
