"We switched from two separate SMS and email vendors to Sendexa in a weekend. One API key, one dashboard, half the cost. Our OTP delivery rate jumped from 91% to 99.4% overnight."
Kwame Asante
CTO · PaySwift Africa
"Sendexa's WhatsApp API is the only one that actually handles Nigerian network quirks. Template approvals are fast, the docs are clear, and their support team replies in minutes — not days."
Adaeze Okonkwo
Head of Product · Chekkit Technologies
"As a solo founder, I needed something I could integrate in an afternoon and trust to just work. Sendexa's SDK docs are the best I've seen from any African API company. Shipped in 3 hours."
Brian Mutua
Founder · Lipa Sasa
"We send 400,000 transactional SMS a month. Sendexa has never missed a beat. Uptime is real — not just a number on a marketing page. Our customers notice when things work, and they do."
Fatima Al-Hassan
VP Engineering · Takaful Digital
"The automation workflows saved us 40 hours a month. We set up a drip sequence for new signups — welcome SMS, then WhatsApp after day 3, then email if they haven't converted. Done in an hour."
Segun Adeleke
Growth Lead · Vendease
"Pricing that actually makes sense for African startups. We're not paying US rates to send messages to users in Accra. Sendexa gets local markets and it shows in every part of the product."
