Question
Will I be charged for an SMS rejected by Fraud Defender Traffic Rules?
Applies To
- SMS API
- Verify API V1 (Legacy)
- Verify API V2
- Billing
- Fraud Defender
Answer
By default, Vonage will accept requests to send SMS to all possible networks and charge you for the request at your usual rate for the country. However, if the prefix/specific numbers were added to a BLOCK rule in Fraud Defender, there would be no charges to the specific outbound SMS request.
