Why choose WIGGWIGG over Fongo?

Built-in password manager

Fongo is just a phone service. WIGGWIGG combines phone numbers with a secure password manager, organized by identity. With Fongo, you'd need a separate password manager.

Identity compartmentalization

WIGGWIGG organizes everything by identity. Your work identity has its own phone number, passwords, and contacts. Same for personal, side business, dating, and more.

Privacy-first architecture

WIGGWIGG is built around zero-knowledge encryption for identity data. Even WIGGWIGG cannot see your passwords or identity details.

Web app for calls and texts

WIGGWIGG has a full web app, so you can make calls and access everything from any device with a browser.

Advanced routing, not just sequential ring

Fongo's call handling is sequential or simultaneous ring with always-on or when-unavailable forwarding. WIGGWIGG ships per-day-of-week business hours, multiple prioritized rules, date-based holiday overrides, and four action types (forward, voicemail, auto-reply, reject).

Spam detection beyond the block list

Fongo's filtering is a manual block list plus default anonymous-caller blocking. WIGGWIGG runs five inbound layers per call (STIR/SHAKEN, neighbor-spoof, carrier reputation, community signals, your block and allow lists) and surfaces a per-call filter log.

Why invest in WIGGWIGG?

A free Canadian number is a good start. But if you want your phone numbers, passwords, and contacts organized by identity with zero-knowledge encryption, and you want to support an independent Canadian company building that future, WIGGWIGG is where that's happening.

Free calling is great. Identity infrastructure is bigger.

Fongo made free Canadian calling accessible. WIGGWIGG is building something broader: phone numbers as one part of a privacy-first identity system with encrypted passwords and contacts.

No ads, no compromises

Fongo's free tier is ad-supported. WIGGWIGG has no ads, ever. Revenue comes only from subscriptions, no need to sell your data to fund the service.

Your data stays yours, mathematically

Fongo is a traditional VoIP provider. WIGGWIGG uses zero-knowledge encryption for your identity data: passwords, contacts, and personal details are encrypted on your device before they leave. Communications are server-side encrypted and stored on Canadian servers.

Two Canadian companies, one bilingual

Both Fongo (Ontario) and WIGGWIGG (Quebec) are Canadian, both subject to PIPEDA. WIGGWIGG is natively bilingual, with French and English built in from day one.

Every inbound call goes through the gate

Fongo lets you block numbers; WIGGWIGG runs every inbound call and text through five layers (STIR/SHAKEN, neighbor-spoof, carrier reputation, community signals, your personal lists) and combines that with scheduled routing. Spam protection and call routing are one decision, not two.
