Cost of using our mobile development API's:

There is no charge to connect through our developer friendly SMS Gateway API products. There is no hidden set-up or monthly fee. You simply need to purchase message credits to send your SMS text messages. The more you buy, the lower the cost. By purchasing credits in bulk, Clickatell is able to offer you a cheaper cost per credit so you can send more messages at a lower rate. Text message prices vary according to country; a local South African SMS would cost less than an international text message. Use the calculators alongside each API description to work out your SMS messaging costs.
