# How much do SMS/Text notifications cost?

SMS/Text appointment notifications cost $5 (USD) per staff member per month, or $5 (USD) per month for a 100-message bundle where premium SMS isn't supported.

Premium SMS/Text Notifications cost $5 (USD) per staff member per month. For example, if you have 2 staff members, it costs $10 per month.

We think our software and pricing should always be simple, so we offer two simple billing options for SMS/Text Notifications for your scheduled appointments:

| Option           | Price                               | Details                                                                                                                                                  |
