C2Call, a Dortmund, Germany-based Internet telephony company whose CEO, Martin Feuerhahn, operates from the startup’s Mountain View, CA, office, said today that it has raised $2 million in Series A venture funding. Taking part in the round were Draper Investment Company, High-Tech Gründerfonds, and angel investor Klaus Wecken. Using C2Call’s software, Internet users can embed click-to-call links in websites, e-mails, instant messages, blog posts, Tweets, or Facebook status updates. The links open voice connections over C2Call’s FriendCaller network; Internet calls are free and land-line and mobile calls cost 2 cents per minute. The company said it will use the funds to expand into international markets.
