What are the average costs of outsourcing a call center to the Asia Pacific?

Average pricing depends on the type of call services and experience level needed, such as inbound vs outbound. With a US-based team of call agents, you pay for agents’ salaries, training, and full benefits. However, when working with an offshore company, you’re responsible for much less, but see a much greater return.

In general, you can expect to pay somewhere between $2.50 to $9/hour on the high end for essential outsourcing services, not including any add-ons.


Where are most call centers in Asia Pacific located?

Business leaders are beginning to engage in call center outsourcing all over the region. The city of Manila is home to 80% of all call centers in the Philippines, but many can also be found throughout the rest of the Asia Pacific region, including India and Malaysia.


What is the average call center agent's salary in Asia Pacific?

Though there are varying levels of expertise to consider, call center agents generally make roughly $2.50/hr USD, but could make up to around $3.75 USD. That works out to about $7,200 USD a year, compared to US agents earning $8-14 per hour and $33,000 to $51,000 each year. 


What are the advantages of outsourcing call center services to Asia Pacific?

Outsourcing your call center services to Asia Pacific undoubtedly results in lower operating costs by nearly 60% on average compared to the U.S. The region is widely considered to be an industry expert. 

Despite the significantly lower costs involved, the region’s multilingual service providers are well equipped to offer excellent customer service.
