Introduction

SendByte sends your transactional email (OTPs, receipts, notifications, alerts) through infrastructure hosted on the continent, with fixed Naira pricing and deliverability engineered for African networks.

What you get

• A clean REST API: POST /v1/emails and you’re sending
• Official SDKs for Node.js, Python, and PHP
• A sandbox with full API parity, so you can build everything before going live
• Signed webhooks for every email lifecycle event
• Domain verification with generated SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records
• A dashboard built for debugging at 11pm: full logs, SMTP traces, webhook replay

All endpoints are versioned under /v1, accept and return JSON, and answer in under 100ms (delivery itself is always asynchronous).

First steps

1. Quickstart: from signup to your first email in under 5 minutes
2. Sandbox: how simulated sending works
3. Verify a domain: required before live sending
