## Respect every opt-out, automatically

Australian law requires a working way to unsubscribe from marketing messages, and a registered sender ID if you send as your brand name. realay gives you the tools for both.

- A STOP reply can add the number to your opt-out list straight away
- Opted-out numbers are filtered out when you send from the dashboard
- Branded opt-out pages you can link to from any message
- A guided form to register your Australian sender ID

## Common questions

### What is realay?

realay.io is an Australian business SMS platform. Send campaigns, reminders and alerts from a simple dashboard, or connect your own systems through the REST API.

### How much does it cost?

You pay as you go, from 5c per SMS part to Australian mobiles. There is no monthly fee, no setup fee and no contract. See [pricing](https://realay.io/pricing) for every rate.

### Do I need a credit card to sign up?

No. Create your account without a card, then top up your balance when you are ready to send.

### What is an alphanumeric sender ID?

It is a short brand name, such as your business name, that appears as the sender instead of a phone number. In Australia these must be registered before you use them. realay has a guided registration form in the dashboard.

### Can people reply to my messages?

Yes, when you send from a dedicated number. Replies arrive in your inbox, and keyword rules can auto-reply, forward the message to email or a mobile, add the sender to a contact group, opt them out, or post the reply to your own system.

### How do opt-outs work?

Keep opt-out lists in realay and opted-out numbers are filtered out when you send from the dashboard. Add a STOP keyword rule so replies opt people out automatically, or share an opt-out landing page link in your messages. See [SMS compliance](https://realay.io/compliance).

### Which countries can I send to?

Australia, the United States and the United Kingdom are listed on the pricing page, and other destinations are available on request. The [coverage page](https://realay.io/coverage) shows the sending rules for every country.

### Can I connect realay to my own software?

Yes. Create an API key in the dashboard and send messages with a simple JSON request. Delivery receipts and replies can be pushed to your system with webhooks. See the [developer page](https://realay.io/developers).
