10 10 Yak - How It Works

Save big on long distance calls with 10-10-Yak

Just dial 10-10-Yak (925) + 1 + area code + number
for calls to North America and the Caribbean.

Just dial 10-10-Yak (925) + 011 + country code + number
for International calls.

Dial-around companies all own a piece of hardware called a switch, which works a lot like a switchboard, directing calls to where they’re supposed to go. All dial-around codes begin with 101 and end with a four digit number called a Carrier Identification Code.

When you dial 101-XXXX before your long distance call, your local phone company knows immediately to send the call to the carrier associated with 101-XXXX. For instance, when you dial 10-10-925 before your long distance call, your local phone company is required to connect your call through Yak, which means big savings for you.

The call then arrives at Yak’s switch. We send it over the lowest cost route available using one of our multiple long distance wholesale suppliers, and the call is directed to its final destination. The whole process takes only milliseconds.
