How it works
Generate the code in your own system and send it with one POST to the SMSPoP API from your server. Each number comes back with a message_id, and our webhook reports whether it was delivered. Keep codes short, say how long they last, and remind users never to share them.
- Econet (077/078/079) and NetOne (071/072) in one send
- Your own sender ID, up to 11 characters
- Delivery report for every number
- Pay with EcoCash, credits valid for one year

Frequently asked questions
How do I send OTP SMS in Zimbabwe?
Create an SMSPoP account, get an approved sender ID and an API token, then POST the message with the code to https://smspop.co.zw/api/campaigns from your server. The code reaches Econet and NetOne numbers within seconds.
Does SMSPoP generate the OTP code for me?
No. Your application generates and checks the code, and SMSPoP delivers it. This keeps your verification logic, and the codes, under your control.
Is there protection against OTP abuse?
Yes. Codes to the same number are rate-limited per client within a short window, and codes are masked in your campaign history after an hour.
What does an OTP SMS cost?
The same as any SMS: from $0.02 per message, pay as you go. Credits are valid for one year.
