SMS Limit

Google gives you 50 credits this means you can send 1 message per credit.But for single SMS received, say when someone replies to your Gmail text, you get 5 credits instantly. Ask your friends to reply your texts :). 

After lose all the credits you will receive one credit after 24 hours. A useful way to up your credits would be to send a text to your own cell phone, and then replying to it any number of times to refill your credits!

As mentioned above this service is free.So, Google does not charge anything.Due to new service to most countries, some companies might charge you for it. Usually, you won't be charged for sending SMS through Gmail. The receiver might be charged a small amount if he chooses to reply to that message.Read more about SMS Charges at the Google Chat Support page.
