Add Credits

Kaleyra.io provides a trial preloaded balance in your account to test out limited features. You can use all the available services without interruption by adding credits or balance (in currency) to your Kaleyra account.

Kaleyra also provides the auto-debit feature. With this feature, you can automatically add credits to your account when the balance goes below the set limit. You can simply link your debit/credit card to the auto-debit feature and enjoy hassle-free services.

Indian customers have the option to pay the tax using Tax Deduction at Source (TDS) while adding the credits. The TDS amount gets remitted to the Government fund. If you have updated all the required details (for example - TAN and KYC), you will get the option to select the TDS amount in percentage. The deduced TDS amount is displayed in the payment receipt.
