Both services call real phone numbers straight from your browser with nothing to install. The difference is the deal: PopTox rations free minutes with daily caps and ads, then sells monthly subscriptions — BoraPhone charges transparent per-minute rates you see before dialing, with the first call free.
The per-minute rate is only part of the price. How a service bills — minimums, renewals, expiry, fees — usually matters more.
