What is BYOT?
Complete cost transparency with Bring Your Own Twilio. You control your calling costs, we handle the fraud prevention.
The Problem with Traditional Pricing
Most verification services mark up calling costs 2-5x
Traditional Model
- Hidden markups on calling costs
- No visibility into actual costs
- Vendor lock-in with proprietary systems
- Unpredictable monthly bills
- Can't optimize or control costs
Example Cost:
Rs 150-250/call
With hidden markups
Shippley BYOT
- Pay Twilio directly (no markup)
- Full cost visibility in Twilio dashboard
- No vendor lock-in, own your data
- Predictable, transparent costs
- Optimize usage, reduce waste
Actual Cost:
Rs 70/call
Direct from Twilio (Rs 51-61/min × 1.25 min avg), no markup

BYOT vs Jazz Business API
Why Pakistani stores choose Twilio over local options
Jazz Business API
- Limited to Jazz numbers only
- Complex approval process (2-4 weeks)
- Requires business documents & CNIC
- No international support
- Limited API features
- Rs 3-5/SMS (cheaper for SMS only)
Best for:
SMS-only campaigns to Jazz users
Twilio BYOT
- Works with all Pakistani networks (Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone)
- Setup in 5 minutes, no approval needed
- Just email & credit card
- Works globally (if you expand)
- Advanced features (voice, recording, AI)
- Rs 70/call verification (all networks)
Best for:
COD order verification across all networks
Why we recommend Twilio: With BYOT, you reach 100% of Pakistani mobile users, not just Jazz customers. Fraudsters often use Zong/Telenor numbers, so Jazz-only verification leaves gaps.
