Checklist
Ten questions to ask any provider.
Use them with every platform you’re considering. Here are our answers.
| Question | SavaraFlow |
|---|---|
| Can I see the exact price before a message is charged? | Yes. Every send and batch is quoted, then reserved, before it is queued. |
| How do I pay? | Prepaid wallet in USD, topped up with mobile money in Ugandan shillings. |
| Is there a monthly minimum or contract? | No. Pay as you go, with an optional platform plan. |
| Can I send as my business name? | In Uganda, yes, after network approval. Elsewhere, ask about the route. |
| What happens if a retry hits the API twice? | The Idempotency-Key returns the original message. Nothing is sent twice. |
| What if a batch can’t be fully paid for? | Nothing is sent. Batches reserve their whole cost first. |
| Am I charged for failed messages? | Pre-acceptance rejections are refunded once. Provider-accepted attempts can remain billable. |
| Can my team reply to customers? | Yes, in a shared inbox across WhatsApp, two-way SMS and email. |
| Can I test without paying? | Yes. Sandbox keys simulate delivered, rejected and low-balance outcomes for free. |
| How are webhooks secured? | HMAC-SHA256 signatures, a timestamp and an event ID, to HTTPS origins only. |
