Transparency: Your remaining credits are always visible in your Gracely dashboard.
Why Use SMS Credits?
SMS credits provide an efficient way to manage your church's communication expenses. Instead of paying a flat monthly fee for unlimited messaging, credits allow you to only pay for what you use, giving you full control over your budget.\
