Messaging infrastructure for Africa
One API. Every channel. Built for businesses that need to move fast.


The team
We built SlingAfrica to give businesses one powerful, reliable API for SMS, RCS, WhatsApp, and Truecaller, without legacy systems, fragmented vendors, or unnecessary complexity. Every integration is engineered for speed, stability, and scale so you can build faster and communicate smarter.
We’re a lean, founder-led team obsessed with delivery. We prioritize reliability, performance, and developer experience over hype and feature bloat. Our focus is simple: help African businesses move faster and connect better.
If you’re building something meaningful and need messaging infrastructure that won’t slow you down, let’s talk.
Our mission is simple: make it easy for businesses to reach their customers through the channels that matter — SMS, RCS, WhatsApp, Truecaller — with one API and one dashboard. We handle the complexity of carriers, compliance, and delivery so you can focus on building your product.
We're customer-obsessed. We invest in understanding how you use messaging so we can keep improving reliability, latency, and support. When your messages deliver and your customers engage, we grow together.
