# Notify spend limits
<a name="notify-spend-limits"></a>

Notify has its own dedicated monthly spend limit, separate from your SMS, MMS, and voice spend limits. Sending messages via Notify does not count against your SMS or voice spend limits.

The *account limit* is the maximum amount, in US dollars, that you can spend each month sending Notify messages. You can request an increase through the Service Quotas console.

The *enforced limit* is an optional spending cap between \$11 and your account limit. When you reach the enforced limit, `SendNotifyTextMessage` and `SendNotifyVoiceMessage` return a `ServiceQuotaExceededException`.

Your Notify spend limit reflects the combined cost of the messaging channel fee and the Notify service fee for each message sent.
