    BESTNET COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION LAUNCHES NEW WEBSITE CLICKTOPHONE.COM
                      AND NEW VOICE ENABLING APPLICATIONS.

     GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.--(PR Newswire)--April 30, 2003--BestNet  Communications
Corporation  (OTCBB:  BESC  -  News),  a  provider  of  patented  Internet-based
communication  solutions,   today  announces  the  launch  of  a  new  web  site
www.ClicktoPhone.com.  ClicktoPhone  features  new voice  enabling  applications
using BestNet's proprietary  technology and network.  ClicktoPhone  applications
enable  BestNet  clients  to  add  secure  and  anonymous  voice   communication
connectivity  anywhere  in  the  world  to web  sites,  web  banners,  pictures,
electronic documents,  and customized e-mail calling buttons.  Specific examples
of  applications  for this new technology can be found on the new web site. This
new site  launched  today in English  and will be  followed  shortly by sites in
other languages.

     Key attributes of  ClicktoPhone  include the ability to add telephone voice
communication to web sites, on-line ads and any electronic communication without
extra  hardware or software or their  associated  expense.  Clients pay only for
usage generated by persons they want to connect with. Calls can be made from any
telephone  around the globe and connected to any other telephone  including cell
phones,  business  extensions and call center systems making it easy for current
or  potential  customers  to  connect.   This  makes  ClicktoPhone  the  perfect
application for sales contact and follow-up,  interactive marketing and customer
service communications.

     Robert A. Blanchard, President and CEO of BestNet commented;  "ClicktoPhone
was  created  with  companies  in mind who have an online  presence  and wish to
bridge the gap between the virtual  world of  Internet  marketing  and  customer
contact  and the  physical  world of offices and call  centers.  It is ideal for
online   interactive   marketing,   sales  contacts  and  customer   service  as
ClicktoPhone  applications can be sent by e-mail or simply placed on a web site.
We can phone enable any logo,  ad,  picture or banner to initiate phone calls to
any location in the world.  Adding voice that is secure and anonymous  delivered
with the quality and  reliability  of the global public  telephone  network,  we
believe will have a measurable impact and enhance  companies' ability to connect
with both existing customers and prospective ones. We built this new application
to be easy to use with the same cost effective attributes of our bestnetcall.com
international  long  distance  and  conference   calling  services.   Using  our
proprietary  network  combined with the ability to elevate web  interaction  and
communication   to   voice   makes   it   exciting   for   us   to   now   offer
www.ClicktoPhone.com.  We believe  interest will come from vertical  business to
business markets, such as corporate customer service and CRM operations,  online
travel sites,  real estate web sites,  retail  e-commerce  store fronts,  online
dating  services,  and many  other  industries,  along  with  select  individual
consumer  use.  Clearly  ClicktoPhone  will provide a cost  effective and global
alternative  to 1-800  service.  This  launch is one in a series of new  service
offerings we will bring to market over the coming months."
