Sending SMS in Australia
For messages sent within Australia, we have a standard retail rate of 12 cents, down to as low as 5 cents per message (inclusive of GST!). This is cheaper than a standard mobile phone plan, which may charge in excess of 20c per text message sent. Each SMS message can contain up to 160 basic characters (GSM encoding) and up to 70 characters if it has special characters (Unicode encoding).
We understand the importance of getting a longer message across. As such, if you send an Email to SMS message that exceeds the 160-character limit (GSM encoding), this will be split into multiple SMS messages (up to 9) for a maximum of 1440 characters.
If you have high volume requirements, contact us to apply for volume discounts.
