How it works

From compose to delivered in three steps

1

Pick your audience

Choose a recipient list or pull straight from your Olbongo contacts. Build the audience once and reuse it across campaigns.

2

Write your message

Compose one message, choose your branded sender ID or the free global pool, and preview exactly what customers will receive.

3

Send & track

Fire it out to every phone in one send, then watch real-time delivered and failed reports roll in — on web and mobile.

Delivery, tracked

Frequently asked questions

How many recipients can I message at once?+

Njiwa is built for bulk. You can send one identical message to thousands of recipients in a single send — pick or paste your list, write once, and it goes out to every phone.

Can I use my own sender ID?+

Yes. Send from your own branded alphanumeric sender ID so customers instantly recognise you. If you don't have one yet, every organization can use the free shared global sender-ID pool to start sending immediately.

How do I know if my messages were delivered?+

Njiwa gives you real-time delivery reports (DLR). As mobile networks send back status callbacks, you see delivered and failed status per message — so you always know exactly what reached its destination.

Is Njiwa a two-way chat?+

No. Njiwa is one-way broadcast SMS — perfect for marketing blasts, OTP codes, transactional alerts, reminders and payment notices. For back-and-forth conversations, use Olbongo chat; Njiwa is for reaching many phones at once with delivery tracking.

Will my messages actually get delivered in Tanzania?+

Njiwa routes through the Pamtech gateway for dependable delivery across Tanzanian mobile networks, and every message is tracked with delivery reports so nothing goes out into the dark.
