Carrier fees are surcharges that wireless carriers apply to outbound traffic on their networks and are out of our control. For US and Canadian local and toll-free numbers, we process these fees for our customers and pass them through with no markup. This is an industry-wide change that impacts all text messaging providers.

However, SimpleTexting does not currently pass carrier fees through to dedicated short-code customers.
