How do I set an SMS limit?

Limits can be set per day and/or per month. Setting an SMS limit is a good way to:

Control your usage
Prevent user error whereby a user might upload a misconfigured file with many more recipients than intended
Prevent machine error whereby an integrated, automated system might send more messages than intended

You don't want to limit your account from sending important messages, so use common sense when setting the limit. You could look at past messaging trends when calculating - but beware of seasonal changes in sending patterns and organic increases due to business growth.

To set or edit the SMS limit:

Navigate to Account > Account Settings, and then click the edit icon next to “SMS Limit”:

Enter a positive integer value in either the Per day or Per month text area

Click Save

To reset the limit back to “Unlimited,” simply repeat this process but delete the values in each field and click “Save”
