How competitors handle SMS
TechMan uses a pay-as-you-go credit system where SMS, DVLA lookups and mailshots all consume credits purchased on top of the monthly fee. Motasoft includes SMS credits that vary by tier (their Starter tier offers a limited bundle, while higher tiers include more). Information checked 19 August 2026.
Garegi takes a different approach: 300 SMS per month are included in the £200/month subscription. No credit system, no per-SMS charges, no surprises on the bill.
