Cricket International Calling: Prices by Country (2026)

Cricket Wireless has no pay-per-use international calling: a call to a country you haven't added doesn't connect. Each country is a monthly feature on the $40+ Unlimited plans — $15 for unlimited minutes to countries like India and the UK, $10 for 50–200 minutes to others. Canada and Mexico are included on those plans.

The feature is per country: to call two countries you add two features. Cricket lists the $15 features as unlimited minutes to landlines and mobiles, and the $10 features with a monthly allowance (Dominican Republic and Pakistan 200 minutes, the Philippines and Nigeria 100, Ecuador 50). The price of extra minutes beyond an allowance was not published on the pages read on 27 September 2026. Canada's Northern Territories are excluded from the plan's Canada calling.

When Cricket Wireless is the cheaper way to call abroad

  • Canada and Mexico. Cricket Wireless says: “Customers on the Supreme Unlimited ($60/mo.), Smart Unlimited ($50/mo.) and Select Unlimited ($40/mo.) Plans are automatically enrolled in Cricket's Mexico and Canada International Long Distance Calling and Texting.” If your plan includes them, nobody's per-minute rate — ours included — beats that.
  • Google Voice and Google Fi. Their per-minute rates to most of these countries are a few cents, lower than ours; Google Voice needs a US number and Fi is a phone plan.

When a browser call costs less

  • Countries your plan doesn't cover. Without the right plan or feature, Cricket Wireless doesn't connect the call at all; ten minutes to an Indian mobile cost $0.80 at TwinPhone's rate, with no monthly charge.
  • Calling from outside the US. Cricket Wireless's international calling plans cover calls placed from the US. From abroad, a browser call is billed at the same per-minute rate as at home.
  • Calling from a laptop. TwinPhone runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari with no SIM and no app — useful when your phone plan isn't the one you want to pay with.

How to call abroad without an add-on, from your browser

  1. Open the dial box, pick the country and type the number — the per-minute rate shows before anything else.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about international calling.

Can I call internationally on Cricket without a feature?

No. Cricket has no pay-per-use international long distance: a call to a country you haven't added is not connected, according to Cricket's FAQ. Calls to Canada and Mexico are included on the Supreme, Smart and Select Unlimited plans.

How much is Cricket's international calling feature?

From $10 a month per country. On the date checked, countries such as India, the UK, Colombia and Germany were $15 a month with unlimited minutes; the Dominican Republic and Pakistan $10 for 200 minutes, the Philippines and Nigeria $10 for 100, Ecuador $10 for 50.

Is Cricket's country feature cheaper than paying per minute?

For India at $15 a month, the feature is cheaper than TwinPhone's $0.08/min once you call more than about 187 minutes a month. For a few calls, or a country you call rarely, paying per minute avoids a monthly charge.

How do I call a country Cricket hasn't added?

From an app or a browser instead of the phone line. TwinPhone works in the browser with prepaid credit from $10 and calls 145+ countries per minute, with the rate shown before connecting.

Does Cricket include Canada and Mexico?

Yes, on the Supreme ($60), Smart ($50) and Select ($40) Unlimited plans, which are automatically enrolled in Cricket's Mexico and Canada calling and texting, according to Cricket.
