The real price of an OTP isn't the rate-card number. It's the rate divided by delivery rate, plus retries, plus paid statuses, plus a separate vendor for every region. Calculate your own effective price per delivered message — and find out how much of your messaging budget goes nowhere every month.

A lower rate often means cheap grey routes with low delivery. You save a cent on the rate — and lose payments, because the codes never arrive.
What's the effective price per delivered message on each of my geos — rate ÷ delivery rate?
An all-routes average hides the failures: 99% in Germany and 70% in Nigeria net a 'respectable' 95% — while your losses sit right there in Nigeria.

A retry on the same SMS channel over the same route is a second paid message with the same odds of not arriving. You pay twice for one non-delivery.
Is there failover to another channel (Viber, Voice) — and what does it cost?
Three vendors = three minimum commitments, three integrations, three dashboards, and zero negotiating leverage with any one of them.
How much does an engineer-hour cost to maintain each extra integration per year?
At 8% non-delivery you're paying for ~1 in 12 messages that are guaranteed to fail.
A typical flow makes 1–2 resends — all of them paid.
An undelivered OTP is a lost transaction. The direct SMS cost is only the tip of the iceberg.
800+ operator routes across 200+ countries. High first-attempt delivery means you pay for messages that work — and pay for retries far less often.
Compare rates
Checking the current operator before sending: ported and non-existent numbers stop eating budget. A fraction-of-a-cent lookup instead of a paid, undelivered SMS.
Compare rates
Instead of a second paid SMS — Viber (materially cheaper in a number of geos) or Voice. A smart retry costs less and delivers better.
Compare rates
All your multi-region traffic under one contract: one volume for lower rates, one integration instead of three, one SLA and one point of accountability.
Compare ratesBy operator DLR (delivery receipt), broken down per-carrier and per-country, available to you in real time in the dashboard and via API. In the rate comparison we show the calculation methodology — you can verify every number on your own test traffic before any commitment.
Yes — right now. A rate comparison pays off 3–6 months before renewal: it's either leverage in talks with your current vendor (also money) or a ready-made business case for switching. And you can run a parallel test on a single geo without breaching your contract — most deals aren't exclusive.
Pricing is billed on actual traffic per route. Volume terms are agreed individually and locked into the contract alongside the SLA; there are no hidden 'platform' or 'support' fees. Every component of the price is right there in the comparison — the same table as the rates.
REST API with docs and a sandbox; if you're integrated with any major CPaaS, migration is swapping endpoints and mapping statuses — typically up to two weeks for a single engineer. The standard path is a parallel launch: one geo first, then expand on the results.
It happens — on Tier-1 routes, for instance, where your pricing is already strong. In that case you get an honest table that shows it, plus proof your current vendor is competitive (a valuable result in itself). Savings most often hide in Tier-2/3 geos, MNP filtering, and cascading retries — which is exactly why we cost every route out separately.
Undelivered OTP costs more than the message: abandoned sign-ups, failed payments, retries through a second vendor. The model counts all of it.
