Answers about custom-domain email, pricing, billing, compliance, and getting started with MailAfrica.

MailAfrica is custom-domain email infrastructure for businesses in Tanzania and East Africa. We handle inbound parsing, outbound sending, and hosted inboxes so you can run professional email on your own domain without managing mail servers yourself.

Startups, SMEs, and platforms operating in Tanzania that need reliable email — whether that's transactional notifications, customer support inboxes, or full custom-domain email hosting.

MailAfrica is built specifically for the Tanzanian market — mobile money billing instead of card-only payments, local compliance awareness (PDPC), and pricing that fits the local economy rather than international dollar rates.
