AirSMS

A short route, priced in the open

Air SMS moves prepaid credit across borders. Airtime, data and bundles reach phones in 80+ countries. The trick is not clever pricing. It is a short route and an honest bill.

Most cross-border top-ups pass through brokers. Each one takes a slice of the rate. We connect to networks direct, so there is no slice to take. You see what we see.

  1. You

    You pick the country, the number and the amount. We match the network from the country code.

  2. Air SMS

    We price the order, take payment on PCI-DSS Level 1 rails and hand the request straight on.

  3. The operator

    One of 230+ Tier-1 and Tier-2 networks credits the phone. Most top-ups land in five to seven seconds.

Where your money actually goes

Five lines make up a top-up. Two of them are zero, and they stay zero. Here is the whole bill.

Four regions, one checkout

Coverage is grouped into four regions. Each one lists the networks we reach and the bundles they sell. Pick a region and check a number before you send.

Three promises we hold ourselves to

  1. 01

    We publish the total first

    The rate and the full charge sit on the screen before you confirm. Nothing appears afterwards.

  2. 02

    We keep the route short

    Direct operator links mean fewer hops. Fewer hops means fewer failures and faster credit.

  3. 03

    We hand back the controls

    Auto Top-Up follows your schedule. Change it, pause it or end it in a couple of taps.
