[Yandex Cloud documentation](../index.md) > [Yandex Cloud Notification Service](index.md) > Pricing policy # Yandex Cloud Notification Service pricing policy ## What goes into the cost of using Cloud Notification Service {#rules} When using Cloud Notification Service, you are charged for the following: * Processing push notification sending events (for both [mobile](concepts/push.md) and [browser](concepts/browser.md) notifications). * Processing registration requests and supporting the registration of [individual sender names](concepts/sms.md#individual-sender) for SMS text messaging with Beeline, MegaFon, MTS, and T2. * Processing [text message notification](concepts/sms.md) sending events within Russia. {% note info %} By default, Cloud Notification Service has limits on sending notifications. For more information, see [Yandex Cloud Notification Service quotas and limits](concepts/limits.md). If you want to send more notifications, contact [our support](https://center.yandex.cloud/support). {% endnote %} All prices in RUB and KZT are inclusive of VAT; in USD, net of VAT. ### Push notification sending events {#push} Push notifications are sent to both mobile platforms, such as Google Android and Apple iOS, and to browsers through WebPush. Mobile and browser push notifications are added up when billing. #### Cost calculation example {#push-example} Let’s assume 1,500 push notifications were processed as sent to mobile and 700 more, to browser, over a month. This means the total billable events are 1,500 + 700 = 2,200. The first 1,000 events are free of charge. For the rest 1,200, you will pay: > (1,500 + 700 - 1,000) / 1,000 × $0.824999868 = 1,200 / 1,000 × $0.824999868 = $0.9899998416 > > Total: $0.9899998416, i.e., cost of sending 2,200 push notifications per month. Where: * 1,500: Mobile push notifications. * 700: In-browser push notifications. * 1,000: Non-billable events. * $0.824999868: Cost of processing 1,000 CNS push notification events, from 1,000 to 500,000 notifications per month. ### Registering individual sender names {#registration} {% note info %} Businesses and individual entrepreneurs can register an individual sender name. {% endnote %} With an [individual sender name](concepts/sms.md#individual-sender), one can process text message notification sending events on behalf of a user other than Yandex Cloud ([shared sender](concepts/sms.md#common-sender)). The name is registered with Russian mobile operators: Beeline, MegaFon, MTS, and T2. Registering an individual sender name is billed monthly, until such a name is unregistered upon the customer’s request. The monthly cost is fixed and does not depend on the number of days of use, processed notifications, or sent text messages. This amount will be charged to you even if no notifications were sent. #### Cost calculation example {#registration-example} Let’s assume you registered an individual sender name for processing text message sending events on January 20, and then unregistered it on March 5. This means three months are billable: January, February, and March. Cost calculation of using a registered name: > $83.3332653552 × 3 = $249.9997960656 > > Total: $249.9997960656 Where: * $83.3332653552: Cost of registering a CNS sender name for 1 month. * 3: Number of months. ### Text message notification sending events {#sms} You can only send text messages across Russia. You pay for each processed message sending event. A message over 140 B (160 Latin characters or 70 Cyrillic characters) is broken down into a few parts, each of which is billable. The cost of processing an event depends on the text message type: commercial, authentication, service, or transaction message. All text messages are considered commercial by default. If you want your messages billed as another event type, you need to create a [template](concepts/sms.md#templates) of the appropriate type first. For some operators, billing can be based on packages. Packages are calculated individually for each subscriber for whom you get text message notification sending events. See the [cost calculation example](#sms-example) below for more information. Sandbox messages (those sent when the text message notification channel is in the `Sandbox` status) are charged as per the relevant pricing. #### Cost calculation example {#sms-example} Let’s assume that, under a shared sender name, there are 100 messages sent to MTS subscribers, and 100 more, to Beeline subscribers (out of those, 30 were sent to the same subscriber, and 70 more, to different subscribers), for processing. Since you do not have any registered templates, all events are deemed commercial. Cost of processing 100 events (for MTS subscribers): > $0.0445081896 × 100 = $4.45081896 Where: * $0.0445081896: Cost of processing one advertising event for MTS subscribers, up to 400,000 events. * 100: Number of notifications. Cost of processing 70 events (for different Beeline subscribers): > $0.0645901536 × 70 = $4.521310752 Where: * $0.0645901536: Cost of processing one advertising event for Beeline subscribers, under the _up to two events per subscriber_ plan. * 70: Number of notifications. Cost of processing 30 events (for a one Beeline subscriber): > * First event processing: $0.0645901536. > * Second event processing: $0.0645901536. > * When processing the third event, the package is activated. The _3 to 4 events per subscriber_ package will cost $0.1604098104. Events 3 and 4 are included in this package. > * Starting event 5, each event will cost $0.0654098256. > > Total cost of processing 30 events for a single subscriber: > $0.0645901536 × 2 + $0.1604098104 + $0.0654098256 × 25 = $1.9248357576 Total cost of processing all 200 SMS send events: > $4.45081896 + $4.521310752 + $1.9248357576 = $10.8969654696 > > Total: $10.8969654696 Where: * $4.45081896: Cost of 100 messages for MTS subscribers. * $4.521310752: Cost of 70 messages for different Beeline subscribers. * $1.9248357576: Charge per 30 SMS messages for one Beeline subscriber. ## Prices for the Russia region {#prices} {% note info %} Yandex Cloud resources are priced differently in different regions. Learn more about available regions in [Regions](../overview/concepts/region.md). Your payment currency is determined by your contracting legal entity. For more information on creating an account, see [Registering an account in Yandex Cloud](../billing/quickstart/index.md). {% endnote %} You are charged for push notifications sent to mobile devices and through browsers. The cost for sending text messages depends on the mobile network provider and message type. | Услуга | Цена | Ед. тарификации | Действует с | Действует до | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------- | --------------- | -------------- | ------------ | | CNS.
