New Canadians, Staying In Touch
Affordable communication options
Are you a new Canadian looking for an affordable way to stay in touch with friends and family abroad?
Moving abroad is an exciting experience that provides you with an opportunity to immerse yourself in a new culture and explore a new landscape. As a new Canadian, you may find the transition difficult, especially when it comes to learning the language and communicating.
During this period of transition, communicating with your friends and family abroad should be easy, accessible, and affordable.
Communication Options for a New Canadian
International call and text plans can be expensive, but Fongo provides free and affordable options with the Fongo Mobile and Fongo World Edition apps. These two apps offer new Canadians and their loved ones abroad with Canadian phone numbers for FREE calls and texts between one another.
Read on to learn how to use Fongo Mobile and World Edition apps together and discover their features.
Two Apps, Global Communication

You can use the app to call any Canadian number, including Fongo World Edition numbers, and message any Fongo user. The Fongo Mobile app also works outside of Canada, so you can use your Canadian number while visiting friends and family abroad.
Fongo World Edition App

How Do They Work Together?
If you are living in Canada and have signed up with Fongo Mobile, you can call and message any Canadian phone number for FREE. If your family abroad signs up with Fongo World Edition, they also get a Canadian phone number and can call your Fongo Mobile number for FREE.
When combined, these apps provide unlimited calls and messages between Canada and anywhere in the world. This allows you to communicate for FREE with new contacts across Canada as well.
Note: Fongo Mobile and World Edition are separate apps with separate phone numbers and accounts. You cannot sign in on the Fongo Mobile app with a Fongo World Edition account, or vice versa.
