is a pay-as-you-go option. Purchase some Skype Credit, and then call whoever you want at low

A Skype Number is a phone number you pay for monthly. People can call you from their mobile or landline, and you answer the call in Skype. A Skype Number is a great option if you or your friends and family live in different countries, or plan to travel abroad and want an affordable way to keep in touch.
Yes. You can purchase as many subscriptions as you like.
You can't add more minutes to your subscription by buying the same one again, but if you run out of minutes, you have a few options: you can buy a different subscription , upgrade to an unlimited subscription where available, or buy some Skype Credit to pay as you go until your existing subscription is automatically renewed.
If you have more than one subscription, Skype uses them in the following order:
-
By subscription type – unlimited subscriptions are used first, then limited ones.
-
By expiration date – subscriptions with the nearest expiration date are used first.
Note: When you upgrade to a new subscription, the previous one will be cancelled and replaced with the new one once you've used all the minutes or the expiration date has passed.
Subscriptions
are 1, 3, or 12-month calling plans that let you make unlimited, or fixed-minute calls to landlines (and mobiles where applicable). A subscription is great if you make a lot of calls.
