# How does SMS and Voice pricing work?
All of our pricing for SMS and Voice can be found [here](https://www.messagebird.com/en/pricing/) on our pricing page. You'll find an overview of our pricing for SMS, Voice Calling, Text to Speech, Numbers, and HLR.
To find the correct price and the currency it's in, select the correct destination country and currency **in the drop-down menu**s.
**Additional notes:**
Our pricing is based on the destination country of your Voice Calls or SMS messages. This means that if you want to send a message to UK numbers, you need to look up the pricing for the United Kingdom on our pricing page.
Because MessageBird is a cloud communications platform, only the **destination country** is relevant to the pricing. There is no originator country as such, as you are sending your messages "from the cloud," so to speak.
This means you always pay the same price per SMS when sending messages to a specific country. For example, whether you send messages from within the UK to other UK numbers, or from outside of the UK to UK numbers, the pricing always stays the same.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.bird.com/connectivity-platform/payment-billing/how-does-sms-and-voice-pricing-work.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
