LINE voice and video calls between LINE users are free over Wi-Fi or mobile data. Calls to regular phone numbers are a separate paid service where offered.
When both people use LINE, calls go over the internet. LINE does not charge per minute, even between countries. Your only cost is data, which is nothing extra on Wi-Fi.
Group calls work from group chats, with several people at once.
| Call type | Data use |
|---|---|
| Voice | Low; fine on most mobile plans |
| Video | Much higher; use Wi-Fi when possible |
| Group video | Highest |
In some countries LINE has offered a paid service for calling landlines and mobiles that are not on LINE. Availability has changed over the years, so check the call menu in your app. Without it, you cannot reach a non-LINE phone through LINE.
Only friends, or people you allow, can call you. In Settings › Calls, you can block calls from people who are not friends. LINE calls show your LINE profile, not your phone number.
LINE for PC and Mac also make free calls once linked to your phone account.

LINE calls work anywhere you have internet. When travelling, use hotel or cafe Wi-Fi, or a local data SIM, to avoid roaming charges. Your LINE account stays the same even with a foreign SIM in the phone.
If calls do not ring, allow LINE notifications and turn off battery limits for the app in your phone settings.
LINE supports group voice and video calls in group chats, with options to share your screen or watch videos together. Group calls use more data than one-to-one calls, so use Wi-Fi for longer sessions.
Yes between LINE users, apart from data.
Only through a paid service where available.
No, it shows your LINE profile.
