Estimate only. The rate shown assumes this send is your whole month's volume.
Cheap is the price, not the rules.
Low rates attract spammers. So every account opens the same way, and nobody sends at volume on day one.

Common questions
All questionsHow much does bulk SMS cost in Nepal with this service?
Each SMS credit costs NPR 0.90 to NPR 0.60, excluding 13% VAT, depending on how many SMS you send a month. Six published tiers set the rate. There is no monthly fee, no setup fee and no contract, so you pay only for the credits you use.
Which mobile networks in Nepal can I send to?
You can send to numbers on NTC, Ncell and Smart Telecom from one account. You do not need a separate arrangement with each network.
Can I send SMS in Nepali?
Yes. Nepali in Devanagari script is supported. Unicode messages fit 70 characters in one segment, and longer ones split into segments of 67 characters, so a Nepali message uses more credits than the same length in English.
Do I pay for messages that fail?
No. Credits for a failed message are refunded to your balance. Each message carries a delivery status, so you can see which numbers did not receive it.
How do I open an account?
Send your details through the contact form. Every account completes KYC with personal or business documents, and sending is enabled after a reviewer approves it, usually within 2 to 3 business days.
Can I send under my own brand name?
Yes. You can request a branded alphanumeric sender ID of up to 11 characters. Until it is approved for your account, messages go out under a shared default sender ID.
