Information provided by Tim Rice from True Call International
If you want to provide telecom services in USA, you must hold a 214 license and submit 499-A forms for USF for businesses generating less than $10,000 in revenues or 499-Q for customers generating more (which are submitted quarterly).
Without these, the FCC can impose fines greater than 100,000 USD.
So please check local and governmental regulations prior to entering the calling card business.
