Support from Mr. Hardik is really great! They helped us with basics. And now we're using their API for OTPs. The dashboard is easy to use. Love the simplicity.

Tech Support sucks. They will give you false deadlines to resolve the issue and All the time same excuse."We are working with our backend team regarding the issue". I don't understand how many years they will resolve the issue. Worst You can't contact them...

Be careful with this company! We had an account and used it for SMS otp. We activated the automatically payment by card. Then, someone used our api and twilio informed us immediately via email, after that we had a charging of 3600 euros from our credit...
