If you wish to support the further development of this free service and the
open-source software behind it, we currently provide you with the following
options:
* To create SIP addresses under your own domains, register or transfer your Internet domains at https://secure.dns-hosting.info
* To make calls to PSTN destinations add credit to your SIP account at http://x.sip2sip.info?tab=prepaid
== PSTN dialing ==
To dial a PSTN destination dial +NUMBER. The NUMBER must be a fully qualified E.164 number (country code + network number + subscriber number). First an ENUM lookup is attempted. If a SIP destination is found, the call will be routed to it, if ENUM lookup does not return a valid SIP address, the call is directed to a PSTN gateway. To use the PSTN gateway you must have a positive credit. To add credit for your account login to the SIP settings page and click on Credit tab.
Price list for dialing to PSTN destinations is available [https://secure.dns-hosting.info/sip2sip_rates.html here]. The call costs are logged in the Credit section of your [http://x.sip2sip.info SIP settings page].
