If you want to send email, SMS, and push notifications from one API, the best choice depends on whether you want a single vendor with all three channels or a developer-first orchestration layer.

Good options

1. Twilio

  • Email: via Twilio SendGrid
  • SMS: Twilio Messaging
  • Push: possible through integrations, but not its strongest native area
  • Best for: reliable messaging infrastructure, especially SMS
  • Pros: very mature, scalable, great docs
  • Cons: can get expensive; push is not its main strength

2. AWS Pinpoint

  • Email, SMS, Push: all supported
  • Best for: teams already on AWS
  • Pros: unified multi-channel platform, campaign features
  • Cons: more complex to set up and use than simpler providers

3. Infobip

  • Email, SMS, Push: all supported
  • Best for: global multi-channel messaging
  • Pros: broad channel coverage, strong international reach
  • Cons: interface and setup can feel enterprise-heavy

4. OneSignal

  • Push: best-in-class
  • Email and SMS: supported too
  • Best for: customer engagement, especially apps
  • Pros: easy to use, strong push features
  • Cons: less “all-purpose messaging infra” than Twilio/AWS

5. Courier

  • Email, SMS, Push: designed to unify notification channels
  • Best for: product teams wanting one notification API
  • Pros: channel abstraction, routing, templates, preferences
  • Cons: not as much of a telecom giant as Twilio/Infobip

My quick recommendation

  • Need one API and want developer-friendly notification routing? → Courier
  • Need the most established SMS provider with email too? → Twilio
  • Already using AWS and want everything in one cloud stack? → AWS Pinpoint
  • Need strong push notifications primarily? → OneSignal

If you want the simplest answer

For a single API across email + SMS + push, I’d usually start with:

Courier if your focus is application notifications
Twilio if your focus is messaging reliability and scale

If you want, I can also give you:

  1. a comparison table, or
  2. a recommendation based on your stack (Node, Python, AWS, mobile app, etc.).
