This is how I understand it ... am no expert, and have no reliable source of info. on this to recommend.


FaceTime itself is always free to use with Apple.


Both parties need a strong internet connection ... can be within internet plan with a wi-fi provider.


For FaceTime to a phone number, you may use cellular for the initial connection, (secs) until wi-fi takes over


If you need to use cellular to use FaceTime :

eg: may be needed totally in some countries / and / or no internet available

Then charges would be up to your plan with your cellular provider


Hope this helps:
