Premium Rate SMS Plans
There are no set up charges, simply pay a single monthly fee which covers all keyword and administration charges.
The Plans are a particularly useful for new premium rate services, where the market is untested as all the costs are included in a single fee. 25p, 50p, £1.00 and £1.50 shortcodes are available. These are Mobile Terminated billed short codes, which means the end-user is billed for receiving an SMS message from the short code.
