The reliable way to send in Nepal.
Most teams stitch providers together and hope for the best. EK SMS replaces that with one dependable platform.
The old way
Juggle separate NTC and Ncell integrations, each with its own quirks.
With EK SMS
One API key reaches both networks. We route and reconcile for you.
The old way
A route goes down and your OTPs silently fail.
With EK SMS
Automatic failover between routes keeps verification codes landing.
The old way
Opaque pricing, monthly minimums, and a sales call to get a quote.
With EK SMS
Published tiers from NPR 0.90 to 0.60 / SMS, no contracts.
The old way
Poll an endpoint and guess whether a message was delivered.
With EK SMS
HMAC-signed delivery webhooks pushed to you the instant status changes.
Every operator. One delivered receipt.
EK SMS rides directly on NTC and Ncell with automatic failover, so a message that can be delivered, is, and you see proof of it over a signed webhook, not a guess.
Pay as you go, from NPR 0.60 / SMS.
No monthly fees. No sales calls. Published volume pricing that drops as you grow, exclusive of 13% VAT.

Compliant and secure by default.
The 2025 Nepal A2P regulatory shift raised the bar. EK SMS bakes the controls in so you stay compliant without extra work.
Opt-out handling
Inbound STOP keywords suppress a number automatically and are logged for audit.
Suppression lists
Per-account suppression so opted-out and invalid numbers never get re-messaged.
Scoped API keys
Generate, scope, and rotate keys anytime. Least-privilege by default.
HMAC-signed webhooks
Every delivery callback is signed so you can verify it really came from EK SMS.
Audit logs
A complete, queryable trail of sends, status changes, and key activity.
A2P-ready
Built for Nepal's 2025 A2P regulatory shift, registered sender IDs and consent records.
Questions, answered.
How do I get a sender ID?
Request a branded alphanumeric sender ID from your dashboard. We handle the registration with the networks; once approved you can route any campaign through it.
Which networks do you support?
Both major Nepali networks, Nepal Telecom (NTC) and Ncell. A single API call reaches subscribers on either network, with automatic failover between routes.
How is delivery reported?
Every message has a real-time status you can fetch via the API, plus optional HMAC-signed webhooks pushed to your endpoint the instant a message is delivered or fails, no polling needed.
How does billing work?
Pay as you go on published volume tiers: NPR 0.90 per SMS credit up to 10,000/month, dropping to 0.60 above 200,000. All rates are exclusive of 13% VAT. Tiers apply automatically, with no monthly fees and no minimum commitment. One message segment is one credit per recipient (160 GSM-7 characters, or 70 for Unicode); longer messages split into segments.
Can I use my own API key?
Yes, that is the whole point. You generate scoped API keys, rotate them anytime, and integrate directly. EK SMS is whitelabel, so the platform stays behind your brand.
