If you have an existing price that you'd like us to beat, don't hesitate to reach out for a personalized quote. For high-volume SMS users sending or receiving over 50,000 texts each month, we provide even more attractive rates. With our complimentary SMS API, you pay solely for the SMS credits you use, with no binding contracts or minimum purchase requirements. We ensure that you are only billed for messages that are delivered, and any failed texts are promptly credited back to your account. This policy allows you to potentially save up to 18% by avoiding charges for undelivered messages, as many SMS providers still bill for texts they have not actually sent. Additionally, our detailed delivery reports provide comprehensive insights into the status of all messages sent, including any SMS credits that have been refunded. By choosing our service, you not only benefit from lower costs but also gain transparency and control over your SMS expenditures.
