WHY BULK SMS OUTPERFORMS EVERY OTHER CHANNEL IN KENYA
The Most Reliable Way to Reach Kenyan Customers — Every Time
Email gets ignored. Social media buries your post in an algorithm. WhatsApp requires saving your number first. SMS bypasses all of that — it lands directly in the message inbox of every phone, whether it’s a KES 3,000 feature phone in Kisumu or the latest iPhone in Westlands.
✅ 98% open rate — vs 20% for email and 5% organic social reach
✅ 90-second average read time — faster than any other channel
✅ No internet required — reaches every phone on every network
✅ Branded Sender ID — customers see your business name, not a number
✅ Credits never expire — buy once, use whenever you need
✅ Safaricom + Airtel — one send reaches both networks simultaneously
