Wholesale termination cost depends on where the traffic actually goes. Two customers "sending UK" can have completely different cost profiles: one hits mobile 90% of the time, the other landline; one runs long customer conversations, the other high-volume outbound campaigns. A single published rate either overcharges the first customer or loses money on the second.
A serious quote is built from your destination mix (the top corridors by minutes), projected monthly volume, CLI requirements, peak concurrent-call needs, and the traffic profile: average call duration, answer-seizure ratio, and attempt patterns. That is why providers ask questions before sending numbers.
Expect per-destination rates for your top corridors and a default tier for the long tail. Watch the billing increment next to the rate: a lower rate on 60/60 billing can cost more than a higher rate on 1/1. Compare CLI delivery, route quality and billing increments as well as the quoted rate.
Send your top 10 to 20 destinations, projected monthly minutes, CLI requirements, and peak concurrent-call needs. Callivex responds within 24 hours, most quotes within 4 hours during EU business hours, with per-destination rates for your top corridors and a proposed set of account caps. A test trunk goes live within one business day of contract signature and initial top-up. Where we cannot compete on price without compromising the route, we say so.
We onboard new customers on a prepaid model. Send the destinations you care about; we'll come back with rates and a test trunk.
