Coverage

Available coverage across 35 African markets. That includes the ones everyone covers, South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Egypt, Morocco, and the ones most carriers skip: Burkina Faso, Guinea, Liberia, Lesotho, Madagascar, Seychelles, Réunion. Africa is mobile-first by default, and DID inventory outside the largest markets is thinner than anywhere else we operate, so stock moves. Select a country to see what's available now.

Common use cases

Reaching markets other carriers skip
If your requirement includes countries outside the three or four obvious ones, this is the difference between a single provider and a patchwork of local vendors on separate invoices. We hold stock past the major markets and source the rest on request.
Fintech and mobile money notification calling
Transaction alerts, verification, and payment confirmation into mobile-first markets, where voice reaches customers that other channels don't. Mobile-format origination where regulators permit it.
Diaspora and cross-border inbound
Customers, families, and partners calling in from Europe, the Gulf, and North America. An African local number that rings wherever the business actually sits, or the reverse: a European number answered by a team on the continent.

Requirements and lead times

Documentation varies by market and by number type. The portal shows what each number requires before you buy.


Mobile ranges are available where regulators permit them. Where they aren't, a national number gives you one dial-in identity across the country without a city attachment. Numbers with no documentation requirement are typically live within hours. Where verification applies, the number activates once details clear.

Questions we get asked

Which African markets do you cover?

35, including South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Egypt, Morocco, Tanzania, Uganda, Ghana, Rwanda, and Zambia. Stock changes, so the module above is the current picture.

My market isn't listed. Can you still help?

Often, yes. Your account manager can source from the full 140+ country footprint on request, and this is the region where that happens most.

Can I get mobile-format numbers?

Where regulators permit mobile numbering, yes. The portal shows which number types are in stock per country.

Can I port existing African numbers?

Manual porting only. Paperless LNP covers 8 countries and none are in Africa.

How fast do numbers go live?

Numbers with no documentation requirement are typically live within hours. Where verification applies, once details clear.
