Why eSMS Africa

OTP SMS in Eritrea, done properly

Sub-second OTP delivery

One-time passwords to Eritrea route on priority paths to EriTel so users get their code in seconds, not minutes - the difference between a signup completed and abandoned.

Managed Verify API

Let eSMS Verify generate the code, send it, handle resends and check it for you - or send OTPs yourself over the SMS API. Both work across Eritrea.

2FA & fraud controls

Add SMS two-factor authentication to logins and payments in Eritrea, with rate limits and anti-fraud checks to block artificially inflated traffic.

Branded OTP sender IDs

Send OTPs from a recognizable sender ID in Eritrea so users trust the code and phishing is harder.
