Billing Mode
Overview
Number segments of China Broadnet are supported, in addition to those of China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom. The billing mode is the same as that of the Chinese mainland SMS service.
- You are billed based on the number of SMSs sent. If the number of characters in an SMS exceeds the length limit, the platform splits the SMS into multiple short messages. For details about how to calculate the number of SMSs, see SMS Content Length Calculation.
- For details about the prices, see Pricing Details.

Account Usage
- Message & SMS is a prepaid service. Top up your Huawei Cloud account to use it.
- An SMS package is bound to one account and cannot be used by different accounts.
Expiration and Overdue Payment
If your Huawei Cloud account is in arrears, the cloud service platform provides a retention period. For details about the retention duration and processing rules, see Service Suspension and Resource Release. If you do not renew your subscription when the retention period ends, your Huawei Cloud account will be frozen and you cannot use Message & SMS or the remaining quota of SMS package. If your account is in arrears, top up your account. To send Chinese mainland SMSs, activate your signature on the Signature Management page of the console.
