Summary of Costs

The details on this page pertain ONLY to messages sent using agencies' own sender IDs, to an internal/non-MOP audience. For details on MOP-facing SMSes, refer to the billing overview page.

Using the Postman platform itself to send the SMSes are free.

However, there are 2 other costs that will need to be borne by agencies:

1. Sender ID registration costs (IMDA)

   • This is charged by IMDA for the registration and maintenance of your sender ID, which is a nation-wide regulation.

   • Total costs - one-time set-up fee of $500 per organisation + $200 annually per sender ID.

   • This is charged regardless of which aggregator you use.
