How Telephony billing works starting July 1

Last updated: June 11, 2026

Starting July 1, 2026, Telephony charges will be billed against your company’s monthly budget in Coperniq.

This means Telephony costs are deducted from the same balance used for usage-based billing, rather than being handled separately.

What’s included in Telephony billing

Telephony billing includes both recurring and usage-based charges:

  • Phone numbers: $2 per number / month

  • US calling: $0.02 / minute

  • US SMS: $0.01 / segment

  • MMS: $0.03 / message

These charges are applied to your monthly budget as they accrue.

Where to view Telephony charges

To review Telephony billing:

  1. Go to Settings

  2. Open Billing

  3. Select Usage

On the Usage page, you can see:

  • Your current balance

  • Your current spend

  • Your monthly budget

  • Any reserved balance for recurring Telephony charges

  • Recharge settings, if enabled

How budget and recharge work

Telephony charges reduce your available balance throughout the month.

If automatic recharge is enabled, your balance will automatically top up when it drops below your configured threshold. This helps prevent interruptions to calling and texting.

For example, your account may be set to:

  • Recharge when balance drops below $95

  • Recharge back up to $115

If automatic recharge is disabled and your balance gets too low, Telephony usage may be interrupted until funds are added.
