What it costs

Plans start around $29/mo for ~500 credits, ~$49/mo for double that, $129-$169/mo tiers with onboarding for growing senders, up to ~$939/mo for 50,000 credits. Annual billing adds two free months and a year of rollover. Short codes and dedicated numbers cost extra.

Best for

Single sites and small groups that want straightforward, affordable text marketing without contracts.

Pros

  • Transparent, low-cost entry pricing
  • Simple keywords and automation that are easy to learn
  • Rollover credits so you don't lose what you pay for
  • No enterprise contract required

Cons

  • SMS-focused; email is light or absent
  • Per-credit model penalizes very high send volume
  • Fewer advanced segmentation/automation features than Klaviyo

Integrations

Connects to common business tools and offers an API; restaurant POS integration is more limited than restaurant-native platforms.

Alternatives

Klaviyo · Attentive · Marsello

Our take: An honest, affordable way to run text campaigns for an independent. If you also need email and deep automation, look at Klaviyo or a loyalty-bundled tool like Marsello.
