Siteti

Twilio Alternative in Nigeria

Twilio is powerful for developers, but African businesses need something simpler. Siteti is built to remove dollar billing stress. complex APIs, and foreign payment limitations.

Official WhatsApp Business Platform. Built for Nigerian Businesses.

While Twilio is a "developer-first" communication engine, it often fails African SMBs due to USD billing, technical setup requirements, and lack of local payment logic. Siteti bridges that gap with a WhatsApp-native business platform.

WhatsApp-First for the African Reality

In Africa, WhatsApp IS the internet. Twilio treats it as one of many APIs. Siteti makes WhatsApp your core sales and support channel.

No coding. No wehooks. Your sales team logs into a shared inbox and starts replying immediately on an official verified number.

Why Twilio May Slow You Down

  • USD Billing only (requires dollar card).
  • Developer-heavy WhatsApp API configuration.
  • Stripe/PayPal focused payment logic.
  • Compliance and number warm-up fully self-managed

Siteti simplifies everything: Naira billing, no-code setup, and built-in local payments.
