Voice rates
| Component | Rate | When it applies |

| Voice base (STT + LLM + TTS + Knowledge Base) | $0.10/min | Every call |
| Telephony (phone line) | +$0.01/min | Phone calls only |

How a phone minute adds up
Telephony and the outbound surcharge are charged once per minute, on the single phone leg of the call. (The only exception is a phone-to-phone interpreter room, which runs two real phone lines and bills the telephony legs twice.)
Inbound phone call, per minute:
base 0.10
telephony 0.01
------------------------------------------
0.11/min
Outbound phone call, per minute:
base 0.10
telephony 0.01 + outbound 0.03 0.04
------------------------------------------
0.14/min (+0.005 with recording)
Browser test (no phone line involved):
base 0.10/min
Worked examples:
| Scenario | Duration | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Browser test | 2 min | ~$0.20 |

| Outbound call, recording on | 3 min | ~$0.44 |
Unanswered (ring, busy, no-answer): $0.

The amount is charged in Turkish lira at the rate shown before you pay, and your wallet is credited in USD. Card details are entered on iyzico's own page; Call2Me never stores them.

Live pricing endpoint
The current pricing is also served as a public API:
GET https://api.call2me.app/v1/pricing
Useful if you're integrating cost estimates into your own dashboard or quoting tool.
What changes pricing
The headline rates are stable. What moves your per-minute cost:
- Inbound vs. outbound — an outbound minute costs $0.03 more than an inbound one.
- Realtime engine — speech-to-speech is noticeably faster and adds $0.25/min. The default cascade engine does not.
- Browser vs. phone — no phone line means no telephony charge at all.
For a standard inbound phone agent, expect $0.11/min all-in.
Rates are read from the platform's live pricing config, so
GET /v1/pricing is always authoritative over any number written here.
Volume discounts
For consistent volumes above ~50,000 minutes/month, contact us — we have negotiated rates with the underlying providers (Deepgram, ElevenLabs, Telnyx) that we can pass on.
Refunds
Top-ups are refundable within 14 days for unused credit. See Refund Policy for details.
