FULL-SERVICE POLITICAL TEXTING

Their 1.5¢ is really 6¢. Ours is 5¢, and we send it for you.

Other vendors price per 160-character segment. A real campaign text runs about 600 characters — so their advertised rate multiplies by four before anyone builds your list or writes a word. We charge 5¢ per message, any length, picture included, and we run the whole thing.

PRICING REALITY

What a real campaign actually costs

A segment is 160 characters. Our average campaign message is 600 characters — four segments. Here's what that means for a 5,000-voter campaign where someone else builds the list, writes the message, and sends it.

Based on published pricing as of September 2026. MMS is priced per message at most vendors, so the segment multiplier applies to SMS rates. Check our math — that's the point.

COMPLIANCE

Texting voters legally is harder than it looks

Carriers now block 100% of unregistered political traffic. Campaign Verify became mandatory for every number type in February 2026. Quiet hours are 8am–9pm in the voter's time zone — stricter in some states. Getting any of it wrong costs you the send, or worse.

PRICING

5¢ per message. That's the price.

Any length. Picture included. No setup fees, no monthly platform fee, no per-segment math.

See how that compares

Standalone voter data without a send: $0.02 per matched record.

What's a segment, and why does it matter?

Carriers bill texts in 160-character blocks called segments. Most vendors price per segment, not per message. A real campaign text runs about 600 characters — four segments — so an advertised 1.5¢ is 6¢ by the time it sends. We charge 5¢ per message, whatever its length.
