How to add credits for SMS Service?

Kalp Studio provides robust tools for developers and businesses to build, manage, and scale their applications, including essential communication services like SMS and Email. To ensure your SMS services run uninterrupted, maintaining an adequate credit balance is crucial. This guide will walk you through the simple process of adding SMS credits to your Kalp Studio account.

In Kalp Studio, services like sending SMS messages operate on a credit-based system. Each SMS sent consumes a certain number of credits from your account.
