Changing current Subscription
The MFT Gateway allows you to change an existing subscription at any time. You may upgrade or downgrade your package, or change the billing frequency.
Upgrading to save cost
As your messaging volumes grow over time, it would be more cost-effective for you to upgrade your existing plan.
Example
Consider a user subscribing to the ‘Small’ plan paying Annually. Initially the account sent and received around 4,000 messages per month. After a few months, the number of messages exchanged starts to increase suddenly to around 8,000 messages per month. With the current subscription the total cost is computed as follows:
- Monthly subscription cost: $ 249
- Cost for the messages included (i.e. 5,000) in the subscription: $ 0
- Cost for the balance 3,000 messages charged at $ 0.10 per messages (i.e. 3000 * 0.10) = $ 300
- Total cost per month: $ 549
Consider this total cost with the upgrade to the next plan ‘Business’. It allows 15,000 messages per month and its monthly subscription fee is just $ 399. So there is a saving of $ 150 in upgrading the subscription at the right time.
Changing the Subscription
You can change - upgrade or downgrade - your subscription at anytime, and without penalties or additional charges. However, downgrades are limited to 4 per year. To change your subscription, login to the MFT Gateway and navigate to
Click ‘Organization Profile’ from the menu, and in the resulting window, navigate to the ‘Subscription’ area.

Then click the ‘Buy Now’ button and then ‘Yes’ on the confirmation screen.
