Reach Rwanda on the channels people read

SMS still reaches every handset in Rwanda, smartphone or not, which makes it the backbone for codes, alerts and time-critical updates. Around it, WhatsApp, RCS and email carry the conversations, rich content and documents that a text cannot hold.

Your team works in one dashboard and one API, whether a message is an SMS in Kinyarwanda, English and French or a WhatsApp template, and every outcome is reported.

Channels

Four channels, one platform

Use one channel or combine them in a single customer journey.

SMS

Works on any handset across Rwanda, so it remains the safest choice for codes, alerts and anything time-critical.

WhatsApp Business

Two-way conversations with a verified business profile, rich media and quick-reply buttons, with SMS as automatic fallback.

RCS Business Messaging

Rich cards and tap-to-act buttons in the native messaging app where RCS is supported, with SMS sent automatically elsewhere.

Email API

The channel for detail a text cannot hold: confirmations, documents and newsletters, all reported in one place.

System Integration & VAS

Platforms for mobile operators in Rwanda

Many subscribers in Rwanda rely on feature phones and mobile money. We deploy the platforms behind that experience for operators and MVNOs: USSD self-care, messaging cores, and the security that keeps them trustworthy.

Each platform is integrated with billing, provisioning and your network, and supported after launch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which mobile networks does Cyberscape reach in Rwanda?

We deliver to subscribers on the major mobile networks in Rwanda: MTN Rwanda and Airtel Rwanda. Each message is routed to the right operator and reported individually.

SMS reaches every phone in Rwanda. WhatsApp Business suits two-way conversations with customers who use WhatsApp, RCS adds rich, branded messages where operators and handsets support it, and email carries receipts and longer content. All four run from one account.

Sender ID rules vary by operator. We check the requirements for your use case, handle registration where it is needed, and tell you what will appear on the recipient's phone before you go live.

Pricing depends on the channels you use, your monthly volume and the type of messages you send. Tell us what you plan to send and our team will prepare a quote for Rwanda.
