Why All-Telecoms

100 SMS companies. One built for South Africa.

Anyone can route an SMS. Few do it the way we do — and after 22 years, we know exactly what that means in practice.

01 / OUR EDGE

Every account gets one of our team members. Not a ticket queue.

Pick up the phone and someone who knows your business answers. Most providers route 3am support requests to a queue in Manila. We route them to a person whose name you know.

22 years of survival

Most SMS providers are 2–5 years old. We've outlasted MMS, USSD, premium SMS and the rise of WhatsApp — and we're still here.

100% South African owned

Not a global with a local sales rep. Local owners, local team, local time zone, billing in Rand. No 3am tickets routed offshore.

Direct carrier relationships

We connect directly to Vodacom, MTN, Cell C and Telkom. Not via international aggregators. Better delivery, fewer hops, faster routing.

One platform, one invoice

SMS, WhatsApp, Short Codes, API — under a single contract with a single procurement headache: ours. Stop juggling four vendors.

48-hour integration

Most providers hand you docs and disappear. Our integration team gets your sandbox live in two business days — or we keep working until it is.

No monthly minimums

Pay per message. No 12-month contracts, no "platform fees". Send one SMS or 50 million — your pricing scales naturally.

POPIA done-for-you

Opt-in confirmations, opt-out keywords, audit trails, consent registers — built into every send. You stay compliant without thinking about it.

Built to scale, priced to start

The same platform that powers 50-million-SMS campaigns will deliver your first transactional message. Grow into us — never out of us.

NEW · GAZETTED 15 APRIL 2026

The compliance landscape just changed. We've been here for 22 years.

The amended Consumer Protection Act regulations give consumers a pre-emptive block on the National Consumer Commission registry — they no longer have to unsubscribe company-by-company. The POPIA loophole that allowed initial cold-calls? Closed. Fines are real and the burden is now on you.

POPIA + CPA + ECTA + WASPA — handled at platform level

Pre-emptive block list synced automatically

Audit logs for every consent, opt-in, opt-out — kept for years, exportable on demand

WhatsApp × SMS

Two channels. One messaging budget.

Most providers will sell you SMS or WhatsApp. We sell you delivery — and our platform picks the right channel for every message, automatically.

WhatsApp-first with smart SMS fallback

WhatsApp is the channel your customers are already on. If a number isn't on WhatsApp — or hasn't accepted the template — we automatically retry via SMS. Highest engagement on the channel that works, universal reach on the one that always does.

Low-cost service window replies

When a customer messages you first, a 24-hour service window opens. Replies within that window are billed at R 0.02/msg — a fraction of standard utility rates. Your busiest support channel becomes one of your cheapest.

One combined credit pool

Top up once, spend across SMS and WhatsApp. One invoice. One reconciliation. One number to call when you have a question.

Proof, not promises

A few of the campaigns we're proud of.

Real engagements, real numbers. The kind that sit in board packs.

eTV · BE LOCKED IN

A 5-digit short code on prime-time TV.

Live audience competition mechanic during eTV's prime-time programming. One short code, one keyword, one team operating the moderation queue while the show was on air. Concurrent inbound traffic peaks the IT team had nightmares about — handled.
