💰 Pricing

Cost Per SMS

Fire SMS uses dynamic pricing based on routing cost. Sending to different carriers or networks may cost differently, so the price per message is not fixed.

The cost of each message is returned in the API response every time you send an SMS, so you always know exactly what was charged.

Field	Description
`cost`	The amount deducted from your balance for this message
`balance`	Your remaining balance after the deduction

Credits

You purchase Credits (in Rands) upfront and each SMS deducts the routing cost from your balance. You can top up at any time from your dashboard.

There are no monthly fees or subscriptions — you only pay for what you send.

Checking Your Balance

Your remaining balance is returned with every send response. You can also view your full credit history and usage in the Dashboard.

Messages will fail with an Insufficient balance error if your account has no remaining credits. Top up before sending to avoid interruptions.
