Q: API Pricing and expansion capabilities?
Agency perspective here - I understand you're working on expanding the dashboard(s) but I have some questions to measure how usable your platform would be for my use case.
1. Would tier 5 pricing secure the discounted pricing for API use?
2. Tier 5 shows 5 toll free numbers - does that mean that it's capped at 5 numbers or I could buy more, if so, what is the pricing on that?
3. What if I want local USA/Canada numbers from a particular area code? Is that available?
4. Does your CDP offer some kind of export facility for stats? (PDF, Excel)? (Suppose I don't want to let the client into the CDP but want to create a report)

Thanks for your thoughtful questions! Let’s break this down for you:
1. Tier 5 Pricing and API Use
Yes, with Tier 5, you’ll enjoy the discounted Business Plan rates for API usage. 🚀
2. Toll-Free Numbers (TFNs) and Limits
Tier 5 includes five TFNs, but you're not limited to that number. A single TFN can handle a large volume of SMS traffic for a brand. If you have more than five different clients, please contact our commercial team to explore the best options tailored to your needs. 😊
3. Local USA/Canada Numbers with Specific Area Codes
Local numbers with specific area codes are not yet available on our platform. However, this feature is in the works and will be available soon—stay tuned for updates! 🚀
Toll-Free Numbers (TFNs) are available and always start with prefixes like 1800, 1888, etc., providing robust delivery capabilities for A2P messaging. 📞
4. Exporting Stats from the CDP
Yes, you can export CSV files containing SMS delivery reports for each campaign📊
Let us know if you have more questions or need help setting up your workflows—we’re here to help! 😊
Cheers,
The Instasent Team 🚀
