Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change my plan?

Yes, you can change your plan at any time. You will also retain any remaining message credits from your previous plan, and have those credits carry over to your new plan.

Are there any contracts or extra fees?

Nope, there are no contracts or extra fees.

We provide a 14-day trial, which is completely obligation free and does not require a credit card to sign-up.

What are SMS keywords?

SMS Keywords act as a prompt for replies, which drives engagement. Once a reply is made to your dedicated virtual number, the keyword acts as a trigger which can activate a variety of functions. Popular triggers include confirming an appointment, entering a competition, forwarding to an email, group chat, and setting an auto response.

Do keywords expire?

No keywords do not expire unless you stop paying for your monthly dedicated virtual number.

Do text messages carry over?

Yes, they will carry over from month to month, and you will have the option to access them for as long as you’re paying your monthly access fee.

Can I send SMS outside of the US?

These specific pricing plan rates are limited to the United States. However, if you would like to send to another country - please contact us. Each country has a different SMS rate depending on your message volume. Please state your message volume and when you would like to send for a quote.
