It’s important to note that in addition to the subscription fees, there may be extra charges for number purchases and calls/SMS charges. Detailed costs for numbers can be found in the number purchase section. The fees associated with KrispCall services are quoted in USD. Payments from cards and Paypal are accepted as of now.

In case an ongoing call or an SMS content costs more than existing credits, the corresponding charge will be deducted directly from the customer’s primary payment method associated with their KrispCall account.
    One-time charges may also include fees for number porting or other additional services.
  • Invoicing: Customers can get invoices and receipts from the app itself. Whenever a payment or refund is initiated, customers promptly receive a copy of their receipt in their registered email.
  • Revision: Prices may be subject to revision either annually or at other times with valid reasons. Customers are provided with prior notice before any changes take effect. It’s expected that customers will adapt to the new pricing in such cases, as there are valid reasons for fee adjustments.

  • Tier 1: $2,000: phishing (including simulated phishing sent for security testing or similar purposes), smishing, and social engineering
    • Social Engineering is a technique used to manipulate someone into sharing private information, like passwords or credit card numbers.
  • Tier 2: $1,000: illegal content (content must be legal federally and in all 50 states)
  • Tier 3: $500: all other violations in commercial messaging including but not limited to, SHAFT (sex, hate, alcohol, firearms, and tobacco) that do not follow federal and state law and regulations (e.g. age-gate).

These non-compliance fines apply to violations across any A2P messaging product (SMS/MMS short code, toll-free, and 10DLC).

The carrier provider holds the authority to permanently suspend access to the carrier network for brands, campaigns, and both personal and company accounts in the event of deemed excessive violations. KrispCall will issue a Sev-0 violation notice and proceed to impose the relevant fine amount in such cases.
