SMS Banding

Due to the difference in costs to send an SMS to different countries, Planted Church charges each SMS according to the following four bands. You can buy additional SMS credit bundles as needed. These bands are subject to change, however it is expected that as Planted Church forms agreements with SMS providers, some of these countries may move to a cheaper band.

Countries Credit cost (per SMS, by recipient)
Band A South Africa, India 1
Band B United States, Zimbabwe, Namibia 2
Band C United Kingdom, Australia 3
Band D (all other countries *) 4
* If you have a specific country you want to send SMS to, you can contact us to request a band review.
