EZ Texting Offers Accessible Pricing With No Hidden Fees or Add-Ons
EZ Texting makes it easier for businesses to get started and scale without navigating complex pricing structures or juggling multiple add-ons. While Textellent layers on activation fees, usage-based costs, and gates essential functionality, EZ Texting keeps pricing clear with core features included and predictable monthly costs. The result is a more transparent, flexible approach that helps teams budget confidently and grow without friction.

|---|---|---|
Monthly Entry Plan Price |  $25/mo paid monthly |  $59/mo paid monthly |

EZ Texting Helps Businesses Grow Their Audience Without Limitations
Textellent’s platform puts limits on how businesses can grow their audience, making it harder to run multiple campaigns, segment audiences, and scale outreach. On top of that, relying on a shared short code introduces businesses to added risk around deliverability, brand control, and compliance. EZ Texting removes these barriers, giving businesses the tools and autonomy they need to confidently grow their audiences.
FEATURES | | |
|---|---|---|
Unlimited Keywords | | 1 keyword in entry plan, additional $10/mo per keyword |
Ability to Have Multiple Campaign Entry Points | | Limited by keyword caps |
Dedicated Short Codes | | 1 shared short code for all customers (“87000”) |
Brand Control & Deliverability | Dedicated short codes reduce risk and improve trust | Shared short code increases risk of deliverability issues and carrier disruption |
Compliance & Risk Exposure | Users have full control over their send reputations | Shared environment exposes all users to risk from bad actors |
EZ Texting Unlocks More Ways to Engage and Convert Customers
Textellent lacks the breadth of tools businesses need to fully engage audiences and drive meaningful results. Without capabilities like payments, donations, advanced AI, or enhanced messaging experiences, teams are limited in how they can interact with and convert customers. EZ Texting gives businesses all the features they need to quickly create campaigns, respond efficiently, and turn SMS into a powerful engagement and revenue channel.
FEATURES | | |
|---|---|---|
Text-to-Pay | Secured by Stripe | |
Text-to-Donate | Secured by Stripe | |
AI Compose Message Generator | Generates messages from scratch | Only rewrites existing messages |
AI Reply Response Generator | Automatically suggests replies for inbound messages | |
Branded Contact Cards | Builds trust and improves recognition | |
RCS Business messaging | Supports rich, interactive messaging experiences | |
EZ Texting Offers More Advanced Automation for Personalized Messaging at Scale
Textellent’s automation is designed for simple message delivery, not for managing sophisticated customer journeys. While it supports scheduled and recurring sends, it lacks the functionality to automatically adapt messaging based on contacts’ responses and preferences. EZ Texting is built for multi-step communication and advanced use cases, so teams can design and control end-to-end messaging flows that evolve with customer behavior.
FEATURES | | |
|---|---|---|
Drip Campaigns | | |
One-Step Auto-Replies | | ”Busy” and “Always On” auto-replies an additional $10/mo each |
Workflows (Multi-Step Messaging Automation) | | |
Conditional Logic / Message Branching | | |

Frequently Asked Questions
EZ Texting's entry plan starts at $25/month — less than half of Textellent's $59/month. EZ Texting also waives activation fees (Textellent charges $49), includes integrations in all plans (Textellent starts at $19/month extra), and provides API access without add-ons, making monthly costs more predictable as your team and contact list grow.
Yes. EZ Texting provides dedicated short codes that give your brand full control over deliverability and send reputation. Textellent routes all customers through a single shared short code ("87000"), meaning one bad actor on that shared line can affect your deliverability, trigger carrier disruptions, and expose your business to compliance risk you didn't create.
EZ Texting supports multi-step Workflows, conditional logic and message branching, pre-built templates, a visual drag-and-drop builder, and custom webhook and API functionality. Textellent offers only drip campaigns and one-step auto-replies — and those auto-replies require $10/month add-ons each, making sophisticated customer journey automation effectively unavailable on Textellent's platform.
Yes. EZ Texting offers Text-to-Pay and Text-to-Donate, both secured by Stripe, letting businesses collect payments and donations directly through SMS. Textellent has no equivalent capability. This makes EZ Texting the stronger choice for e-commerce stores, service businesses, and nonprofits that want to convert SMS conversations into direct revenue or contributions.
