Some providers also use a mix between SIM farms and real suppliers to make it difficult to discern where the traffic is being sent from. It not only goes against the rules of use of the networks, but is also in many ways an inferior solution in terms of speed and delivery rate.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\n",{"__typename":56,"text":77},"\u003Ch3>\u003Cstrong>SMS prices and subscriptions\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The \u003C/span>\u003Ca href=\"https://gatewayapi.com/pricing/\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">price per SMS\u003C/span>\u003C/a>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is of course also very important, and there can be a big difference between paying €0.030 or €0.040 per SMS message if you send 100,000+ messages every month.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is also worth looking at whether it requires a subscription to use the SMS platform. Some SMS gateways have SMS prices that are slightly below their closest competitors, but in return demand €15-25/month for a subscription. In some cases, it will require that you send 25,000+ SMS messages per month before the extra cost of the subscription is offset by the slightly lower SMS prices.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If an SMS gateway offers unrealistically low prices, it is also worth investigating it further. Often it is too good to be true. Some SMS gateways send via remote locations where cross-border interconnection is taken advantage of to send the SMS messages at unbearably low prices, for example an SMS to an European country that takes a detour via Thailand first, so that it arrives via a cheap route instead. This, of course, results in a delay, making it a slower product. In addition, the delivery rate can also drop drastically.
