Updated: August 8, 2022
Commio text messaging supports A2P (Application to Person) delivery, and are subject to messaging surcharges and other fees as listed below. For new commercial A2P long and short code plus toll-free and international SMS/MMS services, the surcharges are based on the recipient carrier network. This surcharge fee is on a per message basis, and differs between recipient carrier networks. This fee is equal to the fee that customers pay for the termination of messages to the destination network today. Commio passes this fee through to our customers at no markup. To ensure transparency, this fee will appear as a separate line item on your invoice. We will not implement and subsequently pass this fee on unless the fee is passed to us on a carrier-by-carrier network basis. This implementation will ensure the highest rates of completion percentage of our messaging platform. Surcharges, both the fee and the effective dates, are being communicated on a carrier-by-carrier network basis.
Any update or change to the fees will be proactively announced to all Commio partners via our Technical Updates email list and all who have an active SMS/MMS account with us. For questions, open a support ticket via support@commio.com and our experts will respond as soon as possible.
Campaign Registry Manual Review (Effective June 13, 2022)
Effective immediately, Commio’s primary upstream DCA (Direct Connect Aggregator) requires a manual review of all campaigns submitted through The Campaign Registry (TCR) for approval. This may cause new campaign starts to be delayed. You should build as much advance time as possible into your campaigns while we determine the length of any delays going forward.
Our DCA is charging a fee of $15 to vet each campaign, including each resubmission of a previously rejected campaign. If the carrier is required to do additional campaign vetting, a services engagement and associated fees may be required. You will be notified if this applies to your campaign(s).
Campaign Service Activation Fees: Sole Proprietor (Effective June 13, 2022)
Commio’s primary upstream DCA (Direct Connect Aggregator) is no longer approving 10DLC Sole Proprietor campaigns. They reserve the right to reevaluate Sole Proprietor campaigns in the future, which could result in the suspension of previously submitted Sole Proprietor campaigns.
T-Mobile Number Pool Configuration Fee (Started June 1, 2022)

Up to 10 Campaign ID's can be submitted at a time for a total T-Mobile charge of $20,000. The fee is charged per T-Mobile Campaign ID or Sub-ID.
