With Rogers One Number, saving your wireless minutes is a breeze. How, you ask? Simple: Rogers One Number lets you call or text any Canadian number – for no additional charge – from your computer, tablet or smartphone using internet or Wi-Fi instead of a cellular connection1. Rogers One Number lets you talk and text Canadian phone numbers when you’re outside of Canada, too, and even synchs your contact list across all your devices (smartphone, tablet and computer).

You can forward your calls and set Call Control rules for when you’re available to talk or text, and to whom. Best of all, you can make all your Rogers One Number calls and texts from your computer, smartphone or tablet virtually anytime (and anywhere!) by downloading the handy Rogers One Number app from iTunes or the Google Play store (for Android devices). Oh, and one more thing: registration is completely free for Rogers wireless postpaid customers2. Here’s how it can work for you.

You’re a Student

Let’s face it: you’re on an extremely tight budget. You can’t afford to exceed your wireless minutes. Heck, you can barely even afford to think about exceeding your wireless minutes. Rogers One Number lets you avoid that potential hassle by using what you’re most likely already carrying with you at all times – your smartphone, tablet or laptop – to make the calls you need to make, whether it’s taking a break from research and calling your parents back home from the chem lab, or checking in with them while you’re travelling abroad. Rogers One Number lets you make free unlimited Canada-wide long distance phone calls and texts from anywhere in the world via a Wi-Fi connection. So, go ahead: feel free to turn off that egg timer during your dish-y phone calls with your far-away BFF. You know you have lots to say.

You’re a Connected Family

You and your spouse and your teenaged kids all have smartphones and tablets, and you like the fact that Wi-Fi lets you save on making and taking calls via Rogers One Number. Call grandma from the kitchen, or your best pal from high school while you loaf on the coach. With Rogers One Number, you enjoy free Canadian long-distance calling, so staying in touch with the rest of your family is easy and saves you money. Even better, though, Rogers One Number saves you running up and down the stairs when your smartphone is on one floor and you’re on another – simply use your tablet to dial out or say, “Hello?”, even if you’re in the basement. With Rogers One Number, your contacts are synched across your devices, so you have everything you need already at your fingertips, no matter where you are in the house.

You Travel for Business

Staying in touch with your colleagues back at the office, or your loved ones back at home, can become expensive when you’re on the road for business, what with the often-pricy (and often-slow) internet connections at your hotel. With Rogers One Number on your laptop, smartphone or tablet, all you need is a Wi-Fi connection (often free at hotels, conference centres, coffee shops and the like!) to make clear – and totally free – long-distance calls to anywhere in Canada. Avoid those pesky hotel surcharges and chat as much as you’d like, thanks to Rogers One Number.

Tip: To help conserve your smartphone’s battery, ensure the Rogers One Number “battery saver” default setting is left on. Under this setting, the app is automatically “closed” whenever it’s minimized and won’t drain power from your device.
