Direct Connect
Direct Connect
Mike is Canada's leading Push To Talk solution with the most rugged phones available in the country. Only TELUS brings you the power of Direct Connect in Canada.
Direct Connect's push to talk functionality is built into every Mike handset. Unlike push to talk functionality on mobile phones, Direct Connect works on a different network, iDEN, which makes it more powerful.
Instant communication
With Direct Connect, you can reach your Mike contacts and over 22 million subscribers across North America - at the simple push of a button. It works like a two-way radio, so it eliminates the delays and frustration of voice mail and phone tag.
Use Group Call to reach every member of your team simultaneously, with no need to call each team member separately. Group Call lets you communicate and coordinate with multiple team members all at once - nationwide, quickly and easily.
Cost savings
It's also all-digital which means crystal clear conversations and secure calls, at a fraction of the cost of traditional cellular.
With shorter conversations, free alerts, billing by the second, industry-leading roaming rates and our unique Direct Connect Expanded Local Calling Areas, Mike is sure to save you valuable time and money.
Communicate with one other person or a whole team when all team members are set up on the same Talkgroup. Account pooling is included in all Mike plans so you can share minutes with other people on the same account.
