Benefits of Skype:

Skype is a free desktop software program that allows users to communicate with one another, free of charge, via chat, voice calls or video calls. This service has various benefits beyond this capability, including the ability for users to phone calls and send SMS text messages with pre-paid Skype credit.

Free Computer-to-Computer Calls:

The main benefit of Skype is that it allows members to make free phone calls between one another when logging into services using a computer or through a mobile application, such as the Skype application for the iPhone. If you sign in to your Skype account and notice that one of the people in your contact list is also signed in, you can communicate with him, for free, in one of three ways: chat, voice or video call.

Calling and Telephone Texting:

Skype also allows users to call and send text messages to mobile phones - albeit for a small fee, one that varies depending on the country you are calling from and the location from where you are making the call. After you buy a pre-paid Skype credit, you can use it to make calls and send text messages literally all over the world, using either a computer program or a mobile application. This comes especially useful if you are traveling without a working cellphone: just find a Wi-Fi connection, connect your phone to it, launch the Skype application and make calls.
