SMS Pricing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n
\"UK<\/figure>\n\n

Remember that with The SMS Works,\u00a0you only pay delivered texts<\/strong>. All non-delivered messages are refunded back to your account, so there’s no wastage. It’s a fairer and more open way of working.<\/p>\n\n

With the average non-delivered rate at 8.9%<\/strong>, most companies stand to make some significant savings.<\/p>\n\n

SMS costs start from just 2.25 pence + VAT per text, with our free credit offer. More details can be found on our SMS pricing page<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Use our\u00a0SMS API price comparison tool<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0to directly assess the costs of up to 10 SMS providers.<\/p>\n\n
