Google Calendar is a free product and Google doesn't charge you to receive notifications. Please keep in mind that if you're in the US or Canada, your mobile service provider's standard rate for receiving text messages may apply.


If you have any questions about the rate, please contact your service provider for more information.


Once you have registered your mobile phone for SMS, SMS will appear as an option in the drop down menu for event reminders. You can add SMS notification by going to the event details page, adding an event reminder and selecting SMS from the drop down menu.
