YepText cost at your volume
$59 a month on The Standard plan, 1,500 credits
- The Standard plan, 1,500 credits$59
The cheapest published way to send that many SMS in a month on YepText: the smallest plan whose credits cover it, or a smaller plan plus its overage rate, plus any fixed monthly fee, from the plans read 9 September 2026. The same function prices YepText on the SMS marketing page.

When YepText fits
You send low volume marketing campaigns from the web dashboard, up to roughly 24,000 outgoing SMS a month, since the largest monthly plan, The Monster at $819 a month with 24,000 credits (read September 9, 2026), covers that ceiling and higher volumes are available on request. You want keywords for opt-in, at $8 a month per extra Yepword (read September 22, 2026), plus scheduling and toll free numbers. A 14 day free trial with 50 credits lets you test before paying. YepText runs its keywords, called Yepwords, on its own shared short code, with each extra Yepword at $8 a month (read September 28, 2026), a data point in our table of SMS short code prices.
When to look elsewhere
You need a published per message rate, a dedicated short code, 10DLC fees or carrier fee figures: YepText does not publish any of these as of September 9, 2026, and it does not publish toll free number rental as of September 22, 2026. You require SOC 2, ISO 27001 or HIPAA evidence, which YepText does not publish as of September 9, 2026. Its terms state 99.99% uptime but the only remedy is a discretionary credit after 48 hours of negligent downtime in 30 days, with no status page.
