Telnyx is excited to release Configurable Spend Limits — a new feature for your Messaging Profiles that provides enhanced control over daily messaging expenses. This feature will allow users to set daily spending limits within a specific Messaging Profile to prevent unexpected charges — whether due to unexpected usage, bugs, or human error. Once the limit is reached, outbound messages are blocked, and notifications are sent via email and webhook.
Once enabled, the running total of spend resets at Midnight UTC, and outbound messages can be sent until the limit is exceeded again. We currently only calculate the spend limit in USD.
This feature is available both through the API and the Mission Control Portal. In the Portal, you can toggle Enable Daily Spend Limit Per Connection by editing your Messaging Profile and enabling the feature under Outbound Settings.
For more details on how to use this feature via API, visit our Telnyx Developer Documentation.
