A Telstra Phonecard (also called a calling card) is a pre-paid card that is used to make phone calls at payphones to international numbers and satellite phones. These cards are sold in denominations of $5, $10, and $20 at select Telstra outlets[2], and they are the only way to pay for such calls, as cash payments were discontinued at some point after domestic calls were made free in 2021. Phonecards can be programmed to autodial a number, which can be useful for agents as it allows making captures on payphones with damaged keypads.
