MessageNet review
MessageNet suits an existing account holder checking whether the brand still operates. The key limitation is that our data represents a brand absorbed under Sinch, not a ranked or tested new provider. No independent rates, scores or hands-on checks apply.
Reader-supported. We earn a commission when you sign up with a provider through this site. Commission never affects a score or a position. How we make money.
No overall score
One of 56 brands reviewed. Not in the priced comparison: Legacy Sinch brand, not an independently priced provider.
- The public homepage still links an existing account login at app.messagenet.com.au
- The brand now sits under Sinch Pty Ltd, which holds active ABN 16095453062
- A support route exists through the general Sinch help centre
- MessageNet appears under Legacy Brands on the Sinch status page, so it is not presented as a current flagship
- No new standalone MessageNet price plan was verified publicly
- Support is a general Sinch help centre, and plan or support level may vary by contract

How MessageNet prices
MessageNet publishes no per-message rate that maps onto a monthly sending volume, so this page prints none.
No independent public rate for MessageNet by Sinch was verified on 23 October 2026. Historic MessageNet prices and Sinch Engage plans cannot be used to infer current fees. If you hold a contract, your existing agreement governs what you pay.
What we verified
MessageNet is now MessageNet by Sinch. The Australian Business Register shows Sinch Pty Ltd with active ABN 16095453062, carrying the registered business name MessageNet by Sinch from 30 March 2026. The earlier Messagenet Pty Ltd ABN 97082712589 was cancelled on 3 February 2026. That cancellation alone does not prove the SMS service closed.
The public site today
The MessageNet homepage lists an account login and Sinch support. The Sinch status page groups MessageNet among legacy brands, and we did not authenticate the login. We did not authenticate that login or test support, so we make no claim about response times or phone guarantees for any MessageNet contract. Sales enquiries route to sales@sinch.com.
Where MessageNet sits within Sinch
The Sinch status page groups MessageNet under Legacy Brands. Treat this as a classification, not an uptime history and not a claim of outages. For the broader current offering, see our Sinch Engage review.
Comparing MessageNet against other providers
Because MessageNet is unranked and untested here, compare it directly rather than by assumption. Our reviews directory lists assessed providers, and our SMS gateway comparison sets out capability differences. For pricing structures across the market, see business bulk SMS.
What this means for your decision
If you already hold a MessageNet contract, your agreement and the Sinch help centre are the authoritative routes for billing and support questions. If you are a new buyer, MessageNet offers no verified public plan to compare, so weigh current Sinch offerings and other Australian providers on published terms. Choose on evidence you can check today.

MessageNet questions
Can I still log in to my MessageNet account?
The public homepage still links the existing account login. We did not authenticate or test the login, so we cannot confirm it works for every account. Contact Sinch support if your credentials fail.
Has MessageNet been shut down?
Whether MessageNet has shut down is not established. The homepage still carries an account link, and Sinch lists MessageNet as a legacy brand, yet this does not guarantee that account access remains available.
Who is behind MessageNet now?
Sinch Pty Ltd holds active ABN 16095453062, with the registered business name MessageNet by Sinch current from 30 March 2026. The former Messagenet Pty Ltd ABN 97082712589 was cancelled on 3 February 2026.
