About ClickSend+
ClickSend is an Australian-founded messaging service for sending bulk SMS by web, schedule or integration, with no monthly subscription. You top up credit and pay only for what you send, and replies are free. Registered nonprofits get 10% extra credit on their first top-up. It publishes local pages for Australia, the UK and the US.
Pricing: No subscription. You top up credit: Boost from $20, Growth from $500 (save 7%), Scale from $3,000 (save 14%) and Enterprise from $10,000 (save 21%). Replies are free. Carrier fees apply for some number types such as 10DLC, toll-free and short codes. The pages I read did not display per-message prices or currency symbols clearly, and UK new customers saw 25% off a first top-up for a limited time, so check the pricing page for your country.
