<h3 class="heading-small" id="free-text-message-allowance">Free text message allowance</h3>
<p class="govuk-body">Every service you add has an annual allowance of free text messages.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">If your organisation has more than one service on Notify, they each have a separate allowance.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">The allowance is:</p>
<p class="govuk-body">You will only start paying for text messages when a service has used its free allowance for the year.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">The current allowance is:</p>
<ul class="list list-bullet">
<li>250,000 free text messages for central government services</li>
<li>25,000 free text messages for other public sector services</li>
</ul>
<p class="govuk-body">It costs 1.58 pence (plus VAT) for each text message you send after you've used your free allowance.</p>
<p class="govuk-body">From 1 April 2021, the new allowance will be:</p>
<ul class="list list-bullet">
<li>150,000 free text messages for national services</li>
<li>25,000 free text messages for regional services</li>
<li>10,000 free text messages for state-funded schools and GP practices</li>
</ul>
<p class="govuk-body">Were making this change so we can continue to support all the teams that use Notify. The new allowance means over 90% of teams can still send all the text messages they need to without paying.</p>
