Warid SMS Packages — Daily, Weekly & Monthly Plans
Warid SMS packages are Jazz SMS packages — same network since the merger. Best pick: Monthly SMS Plus at Rs. 80 for 6,000 SMS to all networks. Dial *334# from your Warid SIM.
Warid SMS Bundles — The Jazz Merger Reality
Same story as calls and data: Warid merged into Jazz, and all SMS packages are now unified. Your Warid SIM subscribes to Jazz SMS bundles using the same codes, same prices, same message allocations. There are no Warid-exclusive SMS offers remaining in the system.
The upside is that Jazz offers a solid SMS lineup. At Rs. 80 for 6,000 messages monthly, the per-SMS cost is essentially negligible — Rs. 0.013 per text, cheaper than the electricity to type the message.
| Package | SMS Count | Network | Price | Validity | Code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| 3-Day SMS | 600 SMS | All networks | Rs. 14 | 3 Days | *332# |
| Weekly SMS | 1,500 SMS | All networks | Rs. 32 | 7 Days | *333# |
| Monthly SMS Plus | 6,000 SMS | All networks | Rs. 80 | 30 Days | *334# |
| Monthly Mega SMS | 15,000 SMS | All networks | Rs. 150 | 30 Days | *336# |

Activating SMS on Your Warid Number
Dial the code from the table, confirm the prompt, done. Check remaining SMS via *111# or the Jazz World app. Both work identically with Warid SIMs. If you had any legacy Warid SMS package before the merger, it expired long ago and was replaced by the Jazz equivalent.
Do Warid SIM Holders Actually Need a Standalone SMS Package?
Maybe not. Here's why: if you're already subscribed to a Jazz combo package — like the Weekly All Rounder (Rs. 170) or the Monthly All Rounder (Rs. 600) — those bundles include 300 to 1,500 SMS alongside calls and data. Check your active bundles via *111# before adding a separate SMS package. You might already have plenty of messages included.
Standalone SMS packages make sense in two scenarios: you use a call-only or data-only package without SMS inclusion, or you're a genuinely heavy texter who burns through the combo allocation. For most smartphone users who primarily message via WhatsApp, the combo bundle's SMS is more than enough for bank OTPs and service notifications.
Check your full Warid SIM package options: Warid call packages and Warid internet packages. Many combo bundles already include SMS, potentially saving you from needing a separate SMS subscription.
SMS on Warid vs Other Networks — Price Comparison
Since Warid SMS = Jazz SMS, the comparison is really Jazz vs Telenor vs Ufone:
- Jazz/Warid: Rs. 80 for 6,000 SMS monthly (Rs. 0.013/message) — best per-message rate
- Telenor: Rs. 70 for 5,000 SMS monthly (Rs. 0.014/message) — cheapest absolute price
- Ufone: Rs. 60 for 4,000 SMS monthly (Rs. 0.015/message) — lowest entry cost
Jazz/Warid gives the most messages per rupee. Ufone gives the cheapest entry point. The differences are so marginal that switching networks for SMS alone would be absurd — pick whichever network you're already using for calls and data.
Practical Notes for Warid SMS Users
- All-network coverage. Jazz SMS packages cover messages to every Pakistani carrier — Telenor, Ufone, Zong, and of course other Jazz/Warid numbers.
- MMS is not included. Multimedia messages (pictures, videos via MMS) cost extra. Use WhatsApp for media sharing instead.
- International texts excluded. Only domestic SMS is covered. Messages to international numbers are charged at standard rates of Rs. 10-15 per message.
- Premium short codes bypass packages. Subscription services, contest entries, and voting SMS from short codes deduct directly from your balance, not your SMS package. Be cautious with unsolicited short code messages.
- Unused messages expire. No rollover. When the package validity ends, remaining SMS vanish. There's no banking or carry-forward feature on any Jazz/Warid SMS bundle.
