## Frequently asked questions

**Is EZ Texting cheaper than ClickSend?**
It depends on volume. ClickSend uses pay-as-you-go pricing with a $28/month add-on for a dedicated phone number. EZ Texting offers flat-rate plans starting at $25/month with a registered number included — making it more predictable and often more affordable for regular senders.

**What features does EZ Texting have that ClickSend doesn't?**
EZ Texting includes AI Compose, an in-app AI assistant, drag-and-drop automation workflows, opt-in tools (keywords, QR codes, web forms), a campaign calendar, a Shutterstock media library, Text-to-Pay, Text-to-Give, and branded contact cards. ClickSend does not natively offer these features.

**Does EZ Texting have AI features?**
Yes. EZ Texting includes AI Compose to generate message drafts, AI Reply for automated responses, an in-app AI assistant, and Auto-Translate for multilingual messaging. ClickSend has no native AI messaging features.

**Does EZ Texting include a phone number in its plans?**
Yes. All EZ Texting flat-rate plans include a registered 10-digit local number. ClickSend charges an additional $28/month for a dedicated number on top of its per-message fees.

**Can I switch from ClickSend to EZ Texting?**
Yes. EZ Texting offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and its onboarding support makes it easy to migrate from ClickSend and get started quickly.

**How does EZ Texting help grow a contact list compared to ClickSend?**
EZ Texting provides native list-building tools including keywords, QR codes, embeddable signup forms, and click-to-text buttons. ClickSend lacks these built-in opt-in features, making EZ Texting a stronger platform for growing and managing a subscriber base.
