Otherwise, the late-night commercials for horoscopes, love advice, yadda yadda wouldn't be on.

2. The price point per premium message is usually around $.99. I have no idea what the program gets of that cut after carrier and aggregator, but the affiliate would get even less.

3. Or, is it a pay-per-phone-number program?

Am I missing something? Because it'd be sweet to hear about how a company monetizes on SMS as they must exist.
