Cuba has a single state-owned telecom monopoly (ETECSA) that charges very high interconnection fees to all international carriers. This affects every provider — AT&T charges $1.19–$1.59/min, Verizon $1.49/min, and T-Mobile $3.00/min without a plan. BubblyPhone's $1.60/min rate requires no subscription, no monthly fees, and no contract.
With BubblyPhone at $1.60/min, a 10-minute call costs $16.00. With AT&T it's $11.90–$15.90, Verizon $14.90, and T-Mobile without a plan $30.00. Google Voice offers $0.60/min ($6.00 for 10 minutes) but requires a Google account and $10 minimum prepay.
The cheapest per-minute options are Google Voice ($0.60/min) and T-Mobile's Stateside International Talk add-on ($0.60/min with a $15/mo subscription). BubblyPhone at $1.60/min is competitive with AT&T and Verizon while offering pay-as-you-go flexibility — no monthly commitment, no contract, and features like AI transcription and web calling.
BubblyPhone connects to both mobile and landline numbers in Cuba. Mobile numbers start with 5 after the country code (+53 5XXX XXXX). The rate is the same for both — $1.60/min.
No — BubblyPhone works directly from your web browser at bubblyphone.com. Just sign up, add credit, and start calling. You can also download the iOS or Android app for mobile calling. No special software needed.
Cuba is on the same time zone as US Eastern Time year-round. The best time to call is between 9 AM and 5 PM Cuba time — ETECSA's network gets very congested in the evening hours (7–10 PM), which can cause dropped calls or failed connections.
No hidden fees with BubblyPhone. You pay $1.60/min with per-second billing — no rounding up to the next minute. The minimum top-up is $5 (about 3 minutes to Cuba). Larger top-ups earn bonus credit: $20 gets $21, $50 gets $55, $100 gets $110.
The minimum top-up is $5, which gives you about 3 minutes of calling to Cuba. A $10 top-up provides about 6 minutes. For longer conversations, a $20 top-up gets you $21 in credit (about 13 minutes) thanks to the bonus.
Yes — BubblyPhone offers AI-powered call transcription for just $0.01/min extra. You'll get a full written transcript and summary after your call. This is especially useful for Cuba calls where network congestion can sometimes affect audio clarity.
IMO and WhatsApp only work when your contact in Cuba has internet access — which is limited, expensive, and unreliable. ETECSA restricts data to about 6 GB per month, and many Cubans rely on public Wi-Fi hotspots. BubblyPhone connects directly to any Cuban phone number via the telephone network, so your contact doesn't need internet.
No — Skype was permanently shut down on May 5, 2025. Microsoft migrated all users to Microsoft Teams, which does not offer international PSTN calling to Cuba. BubblyPhone is a reliable alternative for calling Cuban phone numbers directly.
Yes — BubblyPhone works from any country with an internet connection. Whether you're in the US, Canada, Europe, or anywhere else, you can call Cuba at the same $1.60/min rate through the web app or mobile app.
