Reducing Message Costs: A Practical Guide for Growing Businesses

As your messaging volume grows, small efficiencies compound into significant savings.

Segment your audience

Sending to everyone wastes money. Target the customers most likely to act and your cost per conversion drops.

Keep SMS messages under 160 characters

Every extra segment doubles the cost. Edit ruthlessly.

Use WhatsApp where it is cheaper

For customers who use WhatsApp, service and utility messages are often more economical than SMS. Use automatic fallback to SMS only when needed.

Schedule to avoid waste

Do not send time-sensitive promotions to people who cannot act on them. Targeted beats broad.

Track your spend

Review your delivery reports and credit usage regularly. Spotting one wasteful campaign a month pays for itself.

iSend gives you transparent per-message pricing and detailed reports so you always know where your budget goes. Compare pricing.
