Bulk SMS prices in Southern Europe

Spain, Portugal, Italy, Malta, Greece and Cyprus, with Andorra, Gibraltar, San Marino and Vatican City. Per-message prices run from $0.00395 in Portugal to $0.01495 in Malta, all on one prepaid credit balance.

Tourism, retail, banking, local government and healthcare drive bulk texting in southern Europe, with strong seasonal peaks around summer travel and the sales periods. Many senders mix local residents and visitors, so lists often hold a local language and English versions of the same message.

Italian texts fit GSM-7 including à, è, é, ì, ò and ù. Spanish and Portuguese accents beyond the GSM-7 set, and Greek letters outside it, switch to Unicode. Vatican City numbers belong to the Italian plan and are priced as their own destination by their range.
