I make a living sending SMS in Europe (transactional, mostly for banks and insurance companies) and Twilio SMS pricing is extremely expensive for this geo. Even so, they keep losing money.
Just made a quick comparison with two competitors in terms in gross margin:
Twilio: 52%
Sinch: 21%
Link Mobility: 24%
- muttantt 4y agoTwilio also quietly increased their prices recently, ie. US numbers went from $1 to $1.15
- callalex 4y agoA 15% price increase in ~12 years on a finite, depleting resource seems pretty reasonable (if not excellent), especially when considering inflation in that time period is over 30%.
