16ixty pays you all revenue generated by your SMS service. Revenue share from the operator/carrier is dependent on the operator's model. We only charge you a small switching fee for each inbound message you receive. This is passed on to the gateway supplier and no mark-up is added to the cost.

In addition, a once-off setup fee and a fixed monthly rental fee are also charged.

Setup Cost – R 10 200 Once-Off

This includes:

• All costs needed to setup your SMS service.
• Ordering and ensuring that your number is obtained from and registered with networks.
• Setup of your own web-based interface where you can view all your incoming messages, view reports on received messages, and manage all aspects of your messaging system.
• Two hundred SMS credits.
• Full technical support from us to ensure that the system is functioning faultlessly.
• Testing and ensuring that it is setup to your requirements and ready to use.

Rental - R 2 467 Per Month

Both incoming and outgoing message costs are payable via SMS credits which can be bought online or via normal bank deposit.
