How to call a Japanese landline from Hawaii on your cell phone

Question

I use a prepaid account with a company called MYSTAR GOLD to call Japan.
I have been using this company for a long time and have no problems, but from the time I first started using them until now
the company name has changed about twice. I think the first one was called MYSTAR123.
I decided to recharge my account because my balance was getting low and when I looked for the website
I found that the website was gone.
Periodically I get text messages from this company saying 50% off or sale if I recharge today
so it seems I can recharge if I call them.
However, I am concerned because the website that used to be there is gone.
I would like to know if anyone has used this company and recharged over the phone and had any problems.
Or what other methods （ or companies ） do you recommend for calling Japan?
Thanks in advance.

If you dial +81 first and then enter a Japanese phone number without the first 0, you will be connected to a Japanese phone.

Thanks for your reply.
My cell phone is on my employer's plan and the company pays for it, so I cannot make international calls.
So I use a MYSTAR GOLD prepaid card to make international calls.
I asked this question because I wanted to know if you have ever used the same prepaid card and recharged it by phone or
if you use other prepaid cards.
I know that you have to press 81 first and pull out the first 0.
Sorry the topic is not clear.

Thanks for the information. I will try it when the balance on my current prepaid card runs out.

I buy a PennyTalk prepaid card at Longs. Each time I buy a card for $ 25, it says 4 ¢ per minute for calls to Japan. I rarely have the opportunity to make international calls to Japanese phones, but I always have it on hand for calls to hospitals and other places where I can't reach someone without a phone call.

I am on Skype's Japan Unlimited Min Landlines plan. I pay about $ 11 every 3 months and I think the annual fee is even more discounted. That's what you get with Unlimited. Useful for calling my parents' house. When I call from Skype, I just run the Skype app on my phone and call directly from there to a landline in Japan （ 81- number. ）. It's easy and convenient.

Thanks for the training

information.
In my case, I would prefer to use
a prepaid card rather than paying ＄ 11 every 3 months since I only call Japanese landlines 3-4 times a year.
but I will refer you to it. Thank you very much.
