Does Vercel send push notifications to your phone?

No, because a push notification requires an app and Vercel has never shipped one. SMS at 100% on Pro is as close as it gets.

The short answer

No. A push notification needs an app to deliver it, and Vercel has never shipped one.

The closest available is SMS at 100% of a spend amount, on Pro and above.

What Vercel can reach you through:

Channel Covers Wakes you?
Email Everything No
Web / in-app banner Everything Only if you are already there
Slack Deployment events Depends on your notification settings
Webhook Deployment events Whatever you build on top
SMS Spend amount at 100%, Pro+ Yes — but only at 100%

Netlify is the same picture minus the SMS: email, in-app and Slack.

The webhook route is the flexible one. Vercel will POST deployment events anywhere, so you can wire them into whatever paging setup you already run — Pushover, ntfy, PagerDuty. Worth doing if you have one. Note that webhooks cover deployment events; usage and spend notifications are a separate, narrower set.

Otherwise the honest answer is that neither platform can reach you on your phone in a way that would wake you, except Vercel's SMS at the point where the money is already spent. That gap is the reason MONII is an app rather than a dashboard.

Questions people actually ask

Can Vercel notify my phone at all?

Via SMS at 100% of your spend amount, on Pro and above. There is no native push notification because there is no Vercel mobile app.

Can I get Vercel alerts in Slack?

Yes, for deployment events. Slack is well supported for deploy notifications on both Vercel and Netlify.
