Hi! I'm new to this SMS ecosystem and your tool seems to be great. I'm from Mexico and my userbase is based in Mexico too. I'd like to know if I can connect/use a mexican number with your platform, also, what would be the process for it?
Thanks for your question and for checking out Instasent! We’re thrilled to see your interest from Mexico.
Currently in Mexico, SMS delivery through our platform uses shortcode Sender IDs instead of local numbers. This ensures efficient and reliable delivery of your messages. However, if you're looking to use a local Mexican number for receiving messages (2-way SMS), let us...
Q: Options for UK users / Zapier usage / Lead form
Hi Oscar,
A few quesions if you could help:
1)UK Number I'm based in the UK and I notice your plans have toll free users for US/Canada only. a)Can I get a UK mobile number and use it for this deal? If so could you explain how this would be possible and the onetime/reoccuring costs involved? b)Alternatively I presume I can use a US toll free number and send messages to any country (including the UK)?
2)Zapier a)Is your Zapier intergration currenlty invite only? b)What functions are available? The critical one for me is 'send a message to all numbers in a lInstasent list'
3)Lead form a)Do you have a simple form we can use and embed on a website to users can 'sign up' for sms alerts? b)Ideally I'd like to produce a seperate form for each list I create.
Thanks for your detailed questions—let me break everything down for you! 😊
1. UK Number In the UK, there’s no requirement for a Toll-Free Number (TFN) like in the US/Canada. Instead, you can fully customize your Sender ID! 🎉 This means you can use a name like “My Company” or even a phone number as the Sender ID for your messages. If this works for you, we can guide you through...
Are SMS management and sending costs, up to X messages monthly, included in the SMS credits package? Within that quota, you can send that many SMS without needing extra services (e.g., Twilio).
Yes, our AppSumo deals include monthly free SMS credits that can be used globally! 🌍
Once you’ve used up your allocated credits, you can top up your account and any additional messages are charged based on the country-specific SMS rates. You can check those rates using our SMS calculator. 📊
Thanks for your question about SMS costs for specific countries. Here you can easily find the detailed pricing on our pricing page: https://www.instasent.com/pricing#sms-calculator
Tiers 1 to 4: These operate with Premium Plan rates for SMS. Tier 5: This has Business Plan rates for SMS.
Once you check the pricing page, you can select any country (e.g., Australia, Czech...
That calculator doesn't make sense as it's giving standard rates based on money (i.e. dollars and cents) and not as credits. Please explain the credit system with this in mind.
Q: Few Features clarification please before I purchase Instant SMS?
Hello, Oscar and I hope all is great with you. Question? If I need to purchase another extra Toll-Free Numbers (TFNs), how much it will cost? If I need an extra TFN, do I need to use Twilio to connect with Instant SMS? Can I connect Instant SMS to my Go High Level account via API ?
Also, can you explain how the credit works ? For example, how many characters or sentences I can send via Text message to ONE customers if their is a limitation? How the Credit works or counts in terms of limitation if I decide to send a URL via SMS ? I read from Questions that the the Two-way text messaging is coming and it seems that we can only send MSM but not receiving answers from customers right ? Can I upload CVS with contact list? Question? Do you have workflow for automation inside Instant SMS? Thanks
Thanks for your detailed questions! Let me explain everything clearly before you purchase Instasent:
1. Toll-Free Numbers (TFNs) Cost If you need additional TFNs, the cost will depend on the current rates. You don’t need Twilio—Instasent manages TFN setup directly on the platform, making the process seamless.
2. API Integration with Go High Level Yes! You can connect Instasent...
