Eglobe, Inc.

United States

Eglobe, Inc., (formerly known as Executive Telecard, Ltd.) provides various worldwide telecommunication services including intra/intercountry calling card, toll-free (800), turnkey calling card systems and long distance (within the United States) services.

The company avoids the system of redialling through the United States for calls placed between two foreign countries by means of its proprietary Computer Assisted Variable International Automatic Redialler (CAVIAR) system. Customers dial a toll-free or local number to access CAVIAR which then routes calls through the local Postal, Telegraph and Telephone Authorities. During 1999 the company acquired Telekey Inc, Connectsoft Communications Corporation and Connectsoft Holdings Corp.
