Our Verdict

Quietly reliable European SMS gateway — boring, cheap, and does exactly what it promises.

Pros

  • Simple, well-documented REST and SMPP APIs
  • Transparent per-message pricing without minimums
  • Strong two-way SMS and delivery reporting

Cons

  • No WhatsApp, RCS or voice channels
  • UI functional but far from modern
  • Outside Europe, rates less competitive
  • Smaller ecosystem, few third-party integrations
