Most business today use the virtual calling card. When you are out of calling minutes you can automatically recharge the card online using the account you set with the provider. It does not even require long PIN's and can even be used to contact international numbers.

One of the major disadvantage of pre-paid calling card services is that the charges of the used services are not in the appropriate manner. And these company basically target on the post-paid customer and set the top priority for them from the service point of view.

There are number of advantages of prepaid card services, but some disadvantages are there which makes pre-paid customer suffer. The disadvantages like:
• The coverage area will not be same for both (per-paid and post-paid) customer.
• The services to the post-paid customers are much faster then pre-paid customers.

There is a service of Virtual Calling Card. The best part of this server is no need to carry a card. This Service does not require a physical card. Person is needed only to know 'access phone number' and PIN code to make a call.

Another good thing about virtual calling card is you will only pay for the actual minutes you used.

You are right and you can reload the card anywhere you may be as long as you are connected to the internet.

Okay, I understand what you mean.
Well, here are two simple things that could help you decide.

Prepaid - Limited; when your load balance all used up, you can not use the services offered by the provider but you can always reload anytime anywhere.

Postpaid - Limited but services are continued because there's always an excess. Payments are organized because it is only done once a month.

Business people will always prefer post-paid. Pre-paid has good offer than post-paid. I will prefer post-paid as it is comfortable to pay bills than recharge your SIM

Service and coverage area may not be the same as a post-paid plan, plus when the load of your pre-paid card is up you can't talk or send sms anymore, so you'll have to load again.
