Surfers can call a premium number from their landline or cellphone, which then grants them access to any site for a limited amount of time.
Since the call-to-action is geo-targeted in 37 languages and has global billing reach, webmasters can offer them a "sneak peak" of their member’s area for a limited amount of time, which they can define.
“Surfers will be delighted to have the opportunity of paying for trials this way” Marc Jarrett of PasswordByPhone said. “For them it’s quick and anonymous — and a great way of paying for trials without leaving a digital one. They need not part with any personal information and in an era of increasing online fraud and identity theft, many credit card holders would prefer not to pay for trials this way — even if they only cost a dollar.”
