- Can I buy "buckets" of text credits to accommodate marketing campaign spurts?
Yes... you can purchase a month's worth of text credit, in advance, from any level higher than your current subscription level, at 50% of the per-text overage rate (see table above). For example, if you subscribe at the Basic level (1000 texts per month) you can purchase a 5,000 text credit, valid for one month, for $325 (5,000 x .13 x 1/2). You can do this up to four times per year. This option is only available to subscribers at or above the Basic plan. The minimum price per text is $0.02 (two cents).
