SMS Carrier Fees (United States)

Notifyre’s flat rate SMS pricing bundles all carrier fees and sending costs into a single flat rate.

How Notifyre Handles SMS Carrier Fees

Mobile carriers (like Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile) each charge different fees for delivering SMS messages. Instead of billing you separately for each carrier’s fee, Notifyre calculates an average of all these fees. This average is called the blended carrier fee and is then added to the SMS send cost, creating a single flat rate per message. This means your cost stays the same no matter which mobile carrier delivers your message.

SMS Carrier Fees FAQs

What will I see in my Notifyre account and billing? 

In your Notifyre account, you’ll only see the flat rate per SMS part. Behind the scenes, this includes both the SMS cost and the carrier fee, but it’s all bundled together for clean, clear billing.  

Why do other SMS providers look cheaper? 

Some SMS providers will tempt you with a low base rate… but then sneak in carrier fees after you send. These extra charges can quickly add up and blow out your budget. Notifyre’s flat rate includes everything upfront, giving you full visibility into what you’ll pay, helping you budget for your communication costs.
