Authentication
Authentication
Centralized authentication across all eSMS products.
All eSMS products use a single authentication service at auth.esmsafrica.io. One account gives you access to eSMS Mail, SMS Platform, and SMPP Portal.
SSO (Single Sign-On)
When you log in to any eSMS product, a secure HTTP-only cookie is set on .esmsafrica.io. This cookie authenticates you across all eSMS products automatically.
- Log in once → access all products
- Log out once → signed out everywhere
Account management
Manage your account at auth.esmsafrica.io:
- Update your name and company
- Change your password
- View linked products
- Manage subscriptions
