Questions
Before you choose a plan
Can we have a plan for our organisation instead of a self-serve tier?
Yes. Organisation plans are scoped to your channels, volume and languages, and can include deployment and integration, localisation, training and handover, and ongoing support. Contact sales to start.
Which channels can we use?
WhatsApp, web chat, Telegram, Messenger, Instagram and Slack for conversations; USSD and voice for people without a smartphone; and SMS for confirmations and reminders.
Do we need our own USSD code or phone number?
Yes. USSD runs through your aggregator or carrier (Africa’s Talking, Arkesel, or a direct MTN or AirtelTigo connection), and voice through your Twilio, Infobip or Africa’s Talking account. We can set these up with you as part of a deployment.
Where is our data processed?
On Amazon Web Services in the United States (us-east-1). In-country hosting is not offered as standard; if your mandate requires it, tell us before you plan around it.
Can we try it before we buy?
Yes. Every new workspace starts on a 7-day Pro trial with no card needed. You build and test in the simulators, which every project includes, so you can try a service end to end before you choose a plan and go live.
What happens when our credits run out?
On Pro and Business you choose. With usage billing on, everything keeps running and what’s past your credits is billed monthly at your package’s own rate, $0.02 a minute for voice. Without it, chatbots, USSD and automations stop until your credits renew; your team can still reply to open conversations from the inbox. On the free plan they stop.
Can a conversation be handed to a person?
Yes. On the chat channels a conversation moves to your team’s inbox with its full history, assigned by round-robin, availability or skill. Voice calls can be transferred to a person.
Not sure which plan fits?
Tell us what you need to run, and we’ll recommend one, self-serve or scoped.
