iBasis, Inc., the global VoIP company, announced that it carried an all-time record volume for U.S. Mother's Day. On May 14, 2006, the Company carried over 43 million minutes of traffic. This represents a 60% increase from Mother's Day 2005.

The Company also announced that it marketed its Pingo web-based offering (www.pingo.com) with FTD.com, so that mothers who received FTD flower arrangements also received a promotion to open a free trial Pingo account.

"We always look forward to Mother's Day," said Ofer Gneezy, President and CEO. "In any given year it is one of our highest volume days. Such enormous traffic gives us the chance to confirm the superiority of our sophisticated network signaling and routing capabilities.

"Aside from proving the endurance and sheer capacity of The iBasis Network, our ability to carry so much traffic in a reliable manner is an important signal to our major carrier customers, including retail VoIP providers whose use of our services continues to grow. As VoIP and traditional end-users alike keep calling over our thousands of routes around the world, we are thrilled to solidify iBasis' position as the enabling network for so many."
