# Salesmsg Pricing Plans 2026: The Complete Cost Breakdown 

_Published: June 4, 2026_  
_Author: Rakesh Patel_  

![Salesmsg pricing](https://wp.textbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Salesmsg-pricing-convert.io_.webp)

Salesmsg pricing looks straightforward at first glance: $25 per month for 500 credits, $49 for 1,000 credits, and $99 for 2,500 credits.

The catch is in what gets charged outside those credits. Before your first message goes out, 10DLC registration adds a $4.50 brand fee plus a campaign fee of $1.50 to $10 that renews every single month. Carrier surcharges of $0.0025 to $0.005 per text are passed through on top of every message you send. Extra team members cost $10 per month each, additional phone numbers run $5 per month, and unused plan credits do not roll over.

Meanwhile, every SMS segment burns a credit, so a single message that runs past 155 characters quietly costs two or three credits instead of one. A plan that covers 500 credits rarely covers 500 conversations.

In this guide, we’ll break down every Salesmsg complete pricing plan, explains how credits and overage charges work, calculates true monthly costs for different business scenarios, and compares Salesmsg’s approach against alternatives like [TextBolt’s email-to-SMS gateway](https://textbolt.com/), so you can determine which platform delivers the best value at your messaging volume.

## How Much Does Salesmsg Cost per Month?

Salesmsg uses a credit-based pricing model with six tiers, ranging from 500 monthly credits to custom enterprise plans for businesses that need more than 10,000 messages per month.

| **Plan** | **Monthly Price** | **Credits Included** | **Additional Credit Cost** |
|---|---|---|---|
| 500 Credits | $25 | 500 | 4.0¢ per additional credit |
| 1,000 Credits | $49 | 1,000 | 3.5¢ per additional credit |
| 2,500 Credits | $99 | 2,500 | 3.25¢ per additional credit |
| 5,000 Credits | $179 | 5,000 | 3.15¢ per additional credit |
| 7,500 Credits | $249 | 7,500 | 3.10¢ per additional credit |
| 10,000+ Messages | Custom | Custom | Custom |

The table above covers only the subscription. Several one-time and recurring charges bill on top of every plan, and they apply no matter which tier you choose:

- **Additional user seats:** $10/month per user, recurring
- **10DLC brand registration:** $4.50, one-time
- **10DLC campaign verification:** $15, one-time
- **10DLC monthly campaign fee:** $1.50 to $10/month depending on use case, recurring
- **Standard brand vetting:** $41.50, one-time (Standard-tier brands only)
- **T-Mobile campaign activation:** $50, one-time (all campaigns except Starter)
- **Carrier surcharges:** $0.0025 to $0.005 per SMS, passed through on every message
- **Failed message processing fee:** $0.001 per message that returns a Failed status

The one-time fees drop off after month one, but the campaign fee and carrier surcharges repeat every month, even in a month where you send zero messages.

Every tier includes one phone number (local or toll-free) and one user seat, so the seat and number fees only apply from the second one onward. The per-credit rate steps down as volume goes up.

To Salesmsg’s credit, the structure is simple. Every plan gets the same feature bundle (unlimited contacts, two-way SMS and MMS, mass texting, calling, premium support) and a 14-days trial. Unlike many [email to SMS platforms](https://textbolt.com/blog/best-email-to-sms-service/) that gate features by plan, the only real differences are the credits included, the overage rate, and the fees that ride on top.

### What Salesmsg’s SMS Service Includes

Out of the box, every Salesmsg subscription gives you the same kit:

- One phone number, local or toll-free, at the same line-item price
- Two-way SMS and MMS from a web dashboard and a mobile app (Apple and Google Play)
- Mass texting with unlimited contacts
- Dedicated account manager and priority phone support are available **only on custom enterprise plans** designed for businesses sending 10,000+ messages per month.
- CRM integrations (HubSpot is named in Salesmsg’s own customer quotes; the full integrations list lives on salesmessage.com/integrations)
- A 14-day free trial, which auto-converts to the $49 Premium plan at trial end unless you cancel
- US 10DLC compliance covered, with applicable taxes and carrier fees billed separately at checkout
- Pay-As-You-Go credits available outside the subscription model for irregular or seasonal volume

The dashboard side of Salesmsg is its strength. Conversations sit in a shared inbox, agent assignment is native, voice calls live alongside text threads, and reporting covers the usual sales-coaching metrics. The product is built for the kind of[ two-way messaging workflow](https://textbolt.com/blog/two-way-messaging/) where a customer’s reply needs to land on a specific rep’s screen, not in a shared notifications folder. The math gets uncomfortable on the per-seat, per-number scaling that every growing team running this product eventually meets.

## Salesmsg Pricing Breakdown by Business Size and Message Volume

The [Salesmsg pricing tiers ](https://www.salesmessage.com/pricing)are easy to understand: choose a monthly credit allowance, pay a fixed subscription fee, and purchase additional credits if you exceed your plan limit. The more important question is how those costs compare in real-world business scenarios.

To make that easier, let’s look at three common usage levels and compare how Salesmsg pricing stacks up against TextBolt at each stage of growth.

### 1. Small Businesses (Up to 500 Messages Per Month)

A solo rep, a one-person clinic front desk, or a two-person sales pair sending close to 500 SMS a month maps to Salesmsg’s $25 plan. Here is what the first month actually looks like on that plan, sending 500 standard SMS from one seat:

- 500 Credits plan: $25.00
- 10DLC brand registration (one-time): $4.50
- 10DLC campaign verification (one-time): $15.00
- Monthly campaign fee (low-volume mixed): $1.50
- Carrier surcharges (500 SMS at roughly $0.003): ~$1.50
- **First month total: ~$47.50**

That is nearly double the advertised $25 in month one. The one-time 10DLC fees fall away after that, but add a second teammate ($10/month seat) and the recurring bill still lands around $38 a month.

**For comparison**: TextBolt’s $29 Basic plan carries the same 500 messages, with 10DLC carrier fees bundled into the $45/year toll-free number plan instead of arriving as separate monthly line items. The moment a second teammate joins, the $49 Standard plan covers up to 10 team members on the same flat fee, while Salesmsg keeps adding $10 per user per month.

### 2. Mid-Sized Businesses (1,000 to 2,500 Messages Monthly)

A three-to-five-person sales or recruiting team sending between 1,000 and 2,500 messages a month maps to Salesmsg’s $49 Premium plan or its $99 plan. Textbolt’s $49 Standard or $99 Professional plan covers the same monthly volume on a flat fee with 10 seats included.

Per-credit math is close in this volume band. The cost difference sits in the add-ons, not in the headline plan. Take a practical example: a four-person recruiting team sending 1,000 SMS a month on Salesmsg’s $49 Premium plan.

- 1,000 Credits plan: $49.00
- Three extra seats at $10 each: $30.00
- Monthly 10DLC campaign fee: $1.50 to $10.00
- Carrier surcharges (1,000 SMS at roughly $0.003): ~$3.00
- **Real monthly total: ~$83.50 to $92.00**, against a $49 sticker price

**For comparison,** the same team on TextBolt’s $49 Standard plan pays $49 flat, with 10 seats already included. The only add-ons are a $45/year toll-free number fee and never-expire top-up credits that absorb spike months instead of resetting at cycle close.

### 3. High-Volume Businesses (5,000+ Messages Per Month)

Multi-rep outbound sales teams, large recruiting operations, and always-on support desks running 5,000 messages a month or more map to Salesmsg’s $179 or $249 plan. The effective per-credit price (around 3.15¢ at $179 and 3.10¢ at $249) is competitive with the rest of the subscription SMS category at this volume.

**For comparison,** TextBolt does not publish a single-plan equivalent at 5,000+ SMS a month. The standard path is the $99 Professional plan plus a sized top-up credit pack that never expires, with 10 seats included so headcount never adds a line item. That works in this band because the top-up reserve covers overflow months without forcing a permanent plan upgrade.

### Which Platform Offers Better Value?

Both platforms serve different communication needs.

Salesmsg is designed for businesses that want a dedicated SMS, MMS and calling platform with conversation management, and texting campaigns.

TextBolt is designed for organizations that want to [send and receive SMS messages through email](https://textbolt.com/blog/how-to-send-email-to-text/). Whether the sender is a person using Gmail or Outlook, or a system generating automated email alerts, TextBolt converts those emails into business-grade SMS without requiring APIs, SDKs, or custom development.

In the enterprise pricing plans, TextBolt includes [custom integrations](https://textbolt.com/integration/) and volume-based discounts.

If your goal is to build a dedicated mass texting operation, Salesmsg is likely the stronger fit.

If your goal is to [email to SMS software](https://textbolt.com/blog/email-to-sms-software/) that fits to your existing email workflow, replace carrier email-to-SMS gateways, route system alerts to phones, or add SMS capabilities to tools that already send email, TextBolt may provide a simpler workflow with fewer moving parts.

Looking Beyond the Monthly Plan Price?

User fees, phone numbers, credit expiration policies, and top-up credit rules can all affect your total SMS costs. See how TextBolt’s pricing model compares before choosing a platform.

## Hidden Costs and Fees Beyond Salesmsg’s Advertised Pricing

Salesmsg’s pricing page presents a straightforward progression of plans based on monthly messaging credits. However, the actual monthly cost can include several additional charges and usage policies that aren’t immediately visible from the pricing table itself.

None of these costs are hidden. They’re documented throughout Salesmsg’s pricing and support resources. But businesses evaluating total ownership costs should understand how they affect the final bill.

### 1. Per-Seat Pricing That Scales With Team Size

Every Salesmsg plan ships with one seat. Each additional user costs $10/month at the standard rate. For a typical small or mid-sized business, the per-seat add is a straight $10 per user per month, every month, for as long as the user stays on the platform.

This is the single biggest gap between the advertised plan price and the real monthly spend. What this means in practice: a six-person team on the $49 plan is actually paying $49 + $50 in seat fees, or $99/month, which is the headline price of the next tier up. The credit allotment did not change. Textbolt handles the same scenario by multiple staff text customers from a single account where Standard and Professional include 10 seats out of the box.

### 2. $5 per Extra Phone Number, Every Month

Each plan includes one phone number. Every additional number is typically $5/month, with Salesmsg noting that rates vary by volume. Teams running multiple departments (sales, support, recruiting), multiple regions, or a dedicated toll-free alongside a local line tend to land on three to five numbers without trying, which is another $15 to $25 a month over and above the plan.

### 3. Subscription Credits Don’t Roll Over

Salesmsg subscription credits reset at the end of every billing cycle. If you bought 2,500 credits this month and sent 1,800, the remaining 700 credits do not carry into next month. The clock resets and the new 2,500 credits land in your balance.

Auto-Recharge credits (the top-ups that fire when your plan pool empties) behave differently. Those one-off purchases do carry over, with a separate expiration timer covered below. For teams with seasonal or campaign-driven volume, this creates a lose-lose sizing decision: oversize the plan and forfeit unused credits every quiet month, or size it tight and pay the higher per-credit overage rate every busy one.

### 4. MMS and Long Messages Burn Through Credits Faster

Salesmsg counts credits by message segment, not by send. The published math on Salesmsg’s pricing page: an SMS up to 160 characters is one credit, and every MMS message (image, GIF, vCard, or text up to 1,600 characters) costs exactly two credits. Long-form SMS that runs past 160 characters splits into additional segments at the carrier and consumes one credit per segment.

What this means in practice. A 2,500-credit plan used exclusively for plain short SMS is a 2,500-message plan. The same plan used by a sales rep sending photo follow-ups, recruiter messages with PDFs, or marketing campaigns with rich media is a 1,250-message plan. Teams with mixed playbooks should budget against the segment math, not the headline credit count, before picking a tier. If you are not sure when a message should count as MMS versus a longer SMS in the first place, our [SMS vs MMS](https://textbolt.com/blog/sms-vs-mms/) breakdown covers the carrier-level distinction.

### 5. 10DLC Carrier Fees Billed Separately

US carrier fees for [10DLC compliance](https://textbolt.com/blog/10dlc-compliance/) (the mandatory A2P registration for any business sending text from a long-code number) flow through Salesmsg’s bill separately from the plan price.

The published Salesmsg fee schedule breaks down as:

- A one-time **$4.50 brand registration fee**
- A one-time **$15 campaign verification fee**, and
- A recurring **monthly campaign fee of $1.50 to $10** scaled by use case ($1.50 low-volume mixed, $10 standard, $3 charity/501(c)(3), $5 emergency services).

Standard-tier brands also pay a one-time **$41.50 secondary vetting fee**, and any new T-Mobile campaign registration except Starter carries a one-time **$50 activation fee**.

On top of registration, per-message carrier surcharges apply. U.S. long-code SMS runs **$0.0025 to $0.005 per message** depending on carrier (Verizon $0.0025; T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&T $0.003; U.S. Cellular $0.005), and U.S. long-code MMS runs up to **$0.01 per message** on T-Mobile and Sprint.

Toll-free SMS sits in the $0.0025 to $0.0035 range; toll-free MMS climbs to $0.01. Canadian carriers run higher, up to $0.0085 per SMS on Bell, Virgin, and Rogers, and up to $0.017 per MMS on Rogers.

Since September 30, 2024, Salesmsg also passes through a **$0.001 “Message Processing Fee”** on every message that returns a Failed status. Carrier fees are billed at the end of each monthly cycle, every 30 days for annual plans, or whenever accumulated fees exceed $100, whichever comes first. All of these pass-throughs are non-refundable.

In the next section, we will explore the Salesmsg comparison to other SMS products like Textbolt.

## Salesmsg vs Textbolt: A Side-by-Side Pricing Comparison

While both platforms enable businesses to send and receive text messages, they approach the problem very differently. Salesmsg is designed as a dedicated business texting platform with its own dashboard, calling features, and CRM integrations. TextBolt focuses on email-to-SMS messaging, allowing teams and systems to send and receive texts directly through email.

Let’s check the salesmsg pricing compared to other sms products like TextBolt below highlights the key pricing and workflow differences at a typical small-to-mid-sized business scale.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Does Salesmsg charge per user?**

Yes. Every Salesmsg subscription includes one user seat. Additional team members cost **$10/month per user** under standard pricing.

For businesses with multiple sales reps, recruiters, support agents, or office staff using the platform, user fees can increase the total cost beyond the advertised plan price.

**Is Textbolt cheaper than Salesmsg?**

It depends on your messaging volume and team size. For single-user accounts, pricing between the two platforms is relatively close. However, Salesmsg charges separately for additional users and phone numbers, while TextBolt bundles multi-user access into qualifying plans.

As teams grow, the difference in total ownership cost may become more noticeable.

**What happens if I exceed my monthly Salesmsg credits?**

If your account runs out of monthly credits, Salesmsg can automatically purchase additional credits through its Auto-Recharge system. These credits are billed separately from your subscription and remain available for up to 12 months based on Salesmsg’s recharge policy.

**Does Salesmsg support email-to-SMS?**

Salesmsg is primarily designed around its web dashboard and mobile application.

Businesses looking for a dedicated texting workspace will generally find Salesmsg’s approach suitable. Organizations that prefer sending and receiving SMS through their existing email workflow often choose an email-to-SMS platform such as TextBolt.

This approach allows teams to manage text conversations from the email platforms and business systems they already use, rather than adopting a separate SMS dashboard.

**What 10DLC fees does Salesmsg charge?**

Salesmsg passes through the standard A2P 10DLC fees: a $4.50 one-time brand registration, a $15 one-time campaign verification, and a recurring campaign fee of $1.50 to $10 per month depending on use case. Standard-tier brands also pay a $41.50 one-time vetting fee, and most new T-Mobile campaigns carry a $50 one-time activation fee. Per-message carrier surcharges of $0.0025 to $0.005 per SMS bill on top, and all of these pass-through fees are non-refundable.
