Precios de SIP trunking y PBX en la nube en 2026: por canal, por minuto, tarifas por región (Norteamérica, Europa, LATAM), descuentos por volumen y costes regulatorios.
How SIP trunk pricing works
SIP trunking pricing has three moving parts: channels (concurrent calls), numbers (DIDs and toll-free), and minutes(per-second billed usage). Enterprise buyers usually blend a committed monthly channel fee with metered international termination, while smaller shops prefer fully metered pay-as-you-go trunks.
- Per-channel: US$15–US$25 per concurrent call, unlimited domestic minutes.
- Metered: US$1–US$3 per DID plus US$0.005–US$0.015 per minute domestic.
- Setup / porting: typically free at Tier-1 carriers; some regions charge US$5–US$25 per number for local number portability.
Hosted PBX pricing
Hosted PBX is priced per user, per month, and normally bundles a DID, voicemail, auto-attendant, mobile softphone, and unlimited on-net calling.
- Entry seats: US$14–US$20 per user / month.
- Business seats (call recording, CRM integration): US$22–US$32.
- Contact-center seats (queues, wallboards, omnichannel): US$55–US$120.
Regional rates
North America
The cheapest region on the planet for both DIDs (US$0.50–US$1.50 / month) and outbound minutes (US$0.005–US$0.009). Toll-free inbound is billed per minute (US$0.012–US$0.018).
Europe
Landline DIDs typically US$1–US$4 / month. Mobile termination is materially more expensive than fixed because EU regulators mandate a mobile termination rate (MTR); expect US$0.02–US$0.08 per minute to a European mobile. Local presence rules (Germany, France, Italy, Spain) require a registered address in-country — a Tier-1 carrier bundles that free of charge.
LATAM
Highly variable. Mexico, Brazil and Argentina levy telecom taxes and address-of-use requirements; expect DIDs at US$5–US$15 / month with per-minute rates US$0.01–US$0.04 domestic and US$0.05–US$0.15 to mobiles. Colombia and Chile are cheaper. Toll-free is limited and often domestic-origination only.
Rest of world
APAC and MEA rates depend on whether the carrier holds direct interconnects or resells. Direct Tier-1 routes save 20–60% over grey-route resellers and eliminate the audio-quality and STIR/SHAKEN attestation problems that come with them.
Volume discounts
Committed monthly minute volumes unlock better rate decks. Common tiers:
- Under 100k minutes / month → published rate card.
- 100k–1M minutes → 10–20% discount.
- 1M–10M minutes → 25–40% discount, custom rates per destination.
- 10M+ minutes → wholesale pricing, dedicated NOC support.
Hidden costs to budget for
- Regulatory fees: USF (US), CRTC contribution (Canada), 911/E911 per DID.
- Taxes: state/provincial telecom taxes can add 8–25% in North America; VAT in the EU.
- SBC / session border controller: on-prem cost or a cloud SBC fee.
- Fraud protection: per-destination call caps and geo-blocking; free at reputable carriers.
How to reduce global telecom spend
- Consolidate to one global carrier — one contract eliminates FX spreads and per-country onboarding.
- Insist on direct Tier-1 routes, no grey termination.
- Negotiate committed-volume pricing once monthly minutes exceed 100k.
- Move mobile-heavy destinations onto SIP-to-mobile with local breakouts where legal.
- Audit unused DIDs every quarter — the average enterprise pays for 15–30% dormant numbers.
