Mass texting in the US has three costs: our price for each message, a carrier fee on each message, and the 10DLC registration that US carriers require from every business that sends texts.
1. Message price
Each 160-character message costs $0.015. Incoming texts are free, and there’s no contract or minimum spend.
2. Carrier fee
US carriers charge a fee on every business text. With Notifyre, it’s a flat $0.005 per message, so your total is $0.02 per message. You pay the same on every US network. Some providers advertise a lower price, then add carrier fees that change depending on the network. With Notifyre, the carrier fee is fixed and shown upfront.
3. 10DLC registration
In your first month, you pay $60.90 upfront. This covers your brand registration ($4.80) and campaign registration ($16.90), which you only pay once. It also covers your first three months of campaign maintenance ($11.40 a month, so $34.20 in total) and your first month of your 10DLC number ($5.00).
In months two and three, you only pay $5.00 a month for your number, because campaign maintenance is already paid.
From month four, you pay $16.40 a month: $11.40 for campaign maintenance and $5.00 for your number.
Mass Messaging Business Cost Example
A business sending 10,000 texts a month pays about $216 a month once registration is set up. That’s about $2,619 for the full first year, including every fee. Notifyre is pay as you go, so you only pay for the texts you send. If you send 10,000 texts one month and 30,000 the next, your message costs simply follow your usage, with no plan to change and no penalty. The only fixed cost is the $16.40 monthly 10DLC registration fee.
