"Appointment reminders are phenomenal. Before I turned them on, I had almost 20% of appointments canceled. After turning them on, that went down to less than 1%."

FAQs
How much does SMS cost via YouCanBookMe?
It depends on the SMS package you choose!
Basic SMS:
You pay per message—7¢ (US), €0.07 (EUR), or £0.05 (GBP) per SMS. There are no setup fees and no monthly fees. You only pay for the texts you send.
Enhanced SMS:
There’s a one-time setup fee of $59. You can choose between two monthly plans:
- $17/month: Includes 1 dedicated line and up to 500 SMS per month.
- $27/month: Includes 1 dedicated line and up to 1,000 SMS per month.
- Additional dedicated lines cost $5/month each.
What’s the difference between Basic SMS and Enhanced SMS?
Basic SMS is the fastest way to get started. It works worldwide, requires no setup, and is included in every YouCanBookMe plan (even free). You simply buy credits and your texts go out from one of YCBM’s shared numbers. It’s pay-as-you-go at $0.07 per message, making it ideal if you only send a small number of texts or just want to try SMS out.
Enhanced SMS, on the other hand, gives you your own dedicated business number—local, toll-free, or even your existing line—so customers always know it’s you. It’s available to Teams and Professional plan users in the US and Canada, and it comes with compliance handled for you. Enhanced SMS is also far more cost-effective at scale: as low as $0.027 per message with larger bundles. It’s the better choice if you’re sending a high volume of automated sms reminders, confirmations, and follow-ups and want brand recognition with every text.
Can I use SMS on the free YouCanBookMe plan?
Yep! While you can use SMS on YouCanBookMe’s free plan, you’ll have to pay for the SMS credits themselves. With the free version, you will be using YouCanBookMe’s Basic SMS plan, where each message costs $0.07 (USD), €0.07 (EUR), or £0.05 (GBP).
