Counting
How a text is counted.
| Message has | One text | Each part when longer |
|---|---|---|
| Plain letters and digits | 160 characters | 153 |
| Emoji or other characters | 70 characters | 67 |
Example: a 200-character message in plain letters is 2 texts, so ₦16.10. A message can be up to 1,600 characters.
Fair billing
What you pay for.
- Not sent? Money back. A text refused before it leaves Notix goes straight back to your wallet.
- Sent but not delivered stays charged. The network was paid to carry it, for example when a number is switched off or on DND.
- No monthly fee for SMS. Free and paid email plans both can send texts.
One-time codes
Send a code and check it, in two calls.
Notix makes the code, sends it, and checks what the user types. Wrong codes are counted and the code expires on its own.

Who the text comes from.
Texts go out from the shared Notix sender name. On a paid email plan you can register your own sender name, like your brand, for free. We submit it to the networks for approval, and your texts use it as soon as it is approved.
How sender names workFAQ
SMS questions, answered.
Do I need a paid plan to send SMS?
No. SMS is paid from your wallet, on any plan, including Free.
How do I pay?
Top up your wallet in naira by card, bank transfer or mobile money. Each text is taken from the balance when it is queued.
Why does a one-time code cost more than a text?
A code is a text plus ₦1 for making the code, checking it and expiring it, so you don't build that yourself.
What happens if my wallet runs out?
The text is not sent and the API says the balance is too low. Nothing is charged. Top up and send again.
When will Kenya be available?
Soon. Kenyan numbers are being connected now; this page will show the price when they are live.
