The benefits of connecting your own carrier to Drop Cowboy
Wholesale carrier rates are dramatically lower than retail platform pricing. High-volume senders save thousands monthly. For example: Twilio charges ~$0.0079/SMS vs typical platform pricing of $0.012-0.015. At 100,000 messages/month, that's $400-700 in monthly savings.

Understanding the cost comparison and when BYOC makes sense
With BYOC, you pay wholesale carrier rates directly instead of platform markup. For example, Twilio SMS rates are ~$0.0079/message vs typical platform rates of $0.012-0.015. For ringless voicemail, wholesale rates start as low as $0.004/message with BYOC. Your exact savings depend on volume and carrier—contact us for a personalized savings estimate.
BYOC is ideal for: high-volume senders (>25,000 messages/month), businesses with existing carrier contracts, companies requiring cost transparency, enterprises with procurement requirements, businesses sending internationally. Lower volumes may not justify setup effort—standard pricing is simpler.
BYOC includes full Drop Cowboy platform: campaign management, automation, workflows, CRM integrations, compliance tools (DNC, quiet hours, opt-outs), analytics, reporting, multi-channel support, API access, dedicated account manager, and live support. Only message delivery runs through your carrier—everything else is Drop Cowboy.
Every Drop Cowboy customer gets a dedicated account manager who helps with BYOC setup, carrier configuration, TCR registration, and ongoing technical support. We make integration easy.
