  SMSAPI uses a prepaid, pay-as-you-go credit ("points") model. Customers top up
  a balance and each SMS, MMS, VMS, HLR lookup, or 2FA message consumes credit at
  a per-message rate that depends on destination country, operator, and message
  length (segments). Prices decline with volume, and business/enterprise
  customers can negotiate committed-volume rates and dedicated routes. There is no
  monthly platform fee for standard API access; you pay only for what you send.
notes: >-
  SMSAPI is part of LINK Mobility. Per-message rates are destination- and
  volume-dependent and are not reconciled here; verify current local and
  international pricing on the SMSAPI pricing page and in the customer panel.
