Cost calculator
Estimate what your messages will cost before you send: pick a country and a volume, and compare the price across plans.
Before you launch a send, the cost calculator lets you get a sense of what it will cost. For now it works with SMS: you enter a country and a number of messages, and it gives you back the price per message and the total. It also sets that price next to each plan's, so you can see at a glance how much a higher plan would save you.
Where to find it
Open Settings > Organization and go to the SMS Calculator. You can also open it from the ⋮ menu of the Balance card in Billing.
What you can set
- Country — the destination country. It defaults to your organization's country. The price per message depends on the destination.
- Number of messages — how many messages you plan to send. You can add several rows to compare different volumes.
Reading the result
For each country and message count, the calculator shows:
- The price per message for that destination.
- The total for the volume you entered.
- The price under each plan (Free, Premium, Business), highlighting your current plan as your price. Higher plans get a better per-message price, so the comparison shows what you would pay on each one.
It also tells you how many messages your included monthly credit gets you in that country.
