SMS spending dashboard – Ometria Help Centre

Use the SMS volumes dashboard to track your text message sending volumes and monitor your budget.

The data in this dashboard is refreshed over night on a daily basis, so you will always have the data from yesterday available.

If you have a SMS contract for multiple Ometria accounts, you'll only see spending data for the current account.

Costs display in the currency you are being charged in.

Data in this report is in UTC (coordinated universal time).

Go to Campaigns > Campaign performance > SMS spending:

You can see your Total SMS spending so far vs. your Agreed SMS commitment.

Note: This is your SMS commitment as per your contract - it isn't a limit, and it's possible to exceed your commitment (i.e. overspend).
