TextIt review
Textit is an Australian-headquartered SMS gateway, and it does take new customers through a live sign-up form with a registration agreement, though the homepage does not link to it. No per-message rate is published at any volume, so you would need to contact the operator to ask how it prices. ACMA's approved list for the SMS Sender ID Register carries a Textit entry as a partner of a certified telco, which can register your sender ID with or without an ABN.

How Textit prices
Textit publishes no per-message rate that maps onto a monthly sending volume, so this page prints none.
Textit publishes no Australian per-message rate keyed to monthly volume, so this review prints none (why we never estimate one).
Textit pricing
Textit publishes no rate of any kind. Its site is a single splash page carrying a tagline about sending and receiving business SMS communications, a phone number and a copyright line, and nothing on that page carries a price.
The pages where you would expect pricing information do not exist. The pricing, contact, about and features pages on textit.com.au all return an error, so there is no rate card, no dedicated number price and no sender options to compare against other providers.
Nothing on the site is dated after the year in that copyright line. That matters for pricing because a provider with a stale public presence gives you no evidence of what it charges today.
The real cost of using Textit is therefore unknown until you speak with the company. You can call the published TEXTIT number and ask for a quote, but you have no published figure to check that quote against.
That absence of published rates shapes the rest of this review, because the same single splash page governs what you can learn about its features as well.
Textit features for Australian senders
Textit publishes one sending method: a login console. Its site carries a login console titled "textit Console :: SMS & MMS for Business", which points to a web interface for business messaging.
Beyond that console, the site publishes nothing about how its sending works. There is no API documentation, no email to SMS information, no file upload feature and no description of MMS to Australian mobiles, despite the console title mentioning MMS.
The same silence covers sender types. Textit publishes nothing either way about dedicated numbers, shared numbers or alphanumeric sender IDs, so you cannot confirm from its site which of these your business could use.
Its console may well offer more than its site reveals, but a decision maker can only assess what a provider publishes. What Textit does publish is its standing with the telecommunications regulator, and that record is more solid than its feature documentation.
Textit sender ID and the ACMA register
Textit is listed on ACMA's approved list for the SMS Sender ID Register as an originating telco and a partner of a certified telco, under its own name, TEXTIT PTY LTD.
That listing has practical weight for your business. Registering a sender ID through a provider on ACMA's approved list means the registration path runs through an entity the regulator has already recognised, rather than through an intermediary with no listed status.
The listing names Textit as both an originating telco and a partner of a certified telco. Those two routes can matter for how a sender ID registration is processed and how the brand name your customers see is protected.
A business that wants a registered sender ID can use Textit with confidence on that specific point. The register listing is the strongest published fact this provider carries.
The picture around support and reputation is far thinner, and you should weigh that before committing.
Textit support and reputation
Textit publishes no support hours and no support channels beyond the contact number on its splash page. There is no stated response time, no email address and no live chat option on the site.
The company publishes no uptime figure. You cannot verify from its site what delivery reliability or platform availability it commits to.
Textit also has no public review profile. Our comparison page shows no public review data for this provider, so you have no independent signal from other Australian businesses.
The company behind the site is TEXTIT PTY LTD. The absence of a published address, founding year and certification rounds out a sparse public record.
Support can be tested directly by calling the published number, and that call is a sensible step before any commitment.
Who Textit suits
Textit may suit a business that values an ACMA-listed provider for sender ID registration and is happy to negotiate terms by phone. A company that already uses its console, or one that prefers a small Australian operator and validates service quality through a direct call, could find it workable.
Most businesses should look elsewhere for now. A provider with no published rates, no API documentation, no support hours, no uptime figure and no public reviews asks you to commit on trust alone. Australian businesses that want verifiable pricing and documented features can compare the providers on either side of Textit in our rate table above.
