What is WHISPER?
WHISPER is a bulk SMS platform made specifically for Ghana. It lets an organisation upload a contact list, compose one message, and deliver it to thousands of MTN, Telecel, AirtelTigo numbers at GHS 0.04 each. It was built for Ghanaian realities: local number formats are cleaned automatically, billing is in cedis through Mobile Money, and sender IDs are registered with the networks on your behalf. It started as a tool for a student ministry that needed to reach members reliably and cheaply, and grew into a platform now used by churches, schools and small businesses.
Why choose WHISPER for bulk SMS in Ghana?

Ghanaian numbers cleaned automatically
Upload a CSV or Excel file and WHISPER converts 024XXXXXXX into 233XXXXXXXXX, strips spaces and dashes, and flags numbers that can't be valid.
Personalised at scale

Scheduling and recurring sends
Schedule a campaign for later, or repeat it daily, weekly or monthly. Sends run automatically whether or not you're logged in.

Frequently asked questions
How much does bulk SMS cost in Ghana?
Bulk SMS on WHISPER costs GHS 0.04 per message sent to any Ghanaian network. There are no monthly fees, no setup fees and no minimum contract. You buy SMS credits up front in cedis and they never expire. A message of up to 160 characters counts as one SMS; longer messages are billed per 160-character page.
Are there monthly fees or contracts?
No. WHISPER is entirely pay-as-you-go. You buy a bundle of SMS credits in Ghana cedis, and you are charged only for the messages you actually send. Credits do not expire, and there is no subscription, no setup fee and no minimum commitment.
How do I pay for SMS credits in Ghana?
You pay in Ghana cedis through Paystack, which supports MTN Mobile Money, Telecel Cash, AirtelTigo Money, and Visa or Mastercard debit cards. Credits are added to your account automatically the moment payment is confirmed, so you can start sending immediately.
Do unused SMS credits expire?
No. SMS credits bought on WHISPER never expire. They stay on your account until you use them, which suits organisations that send in bursts — a school sending results at the end of term, or a church sending event reminders a few times a month.
Which networks can WHISPER send SMS to in Ghana?
WHISPER delivers to all major Ghanaian mobile networks: MTN, Telecel and AirtelTigo. You do not need a separate account or a different rate for each network — every message costs the same GHS 0.04, whichever network the recipient is on.
What is an SMS sender ID and how do I get one in Ghana?
A sender ID is the name recipients see instead of a phone number, such as your church or school name. It can be up to 11 characters. On WHISPER you request one from the Sender IDs page with a short description of how you will use it; it is submitted for network approval and typically becomes active within one to three business days.
Can I send personalised bulk SMS with each recipient's name?
Yes. WHISPER supports variables such as {Name} or any column from your uploaded file, so a single campaign sends a differently addressed message to every recipient. Upload a CSV or Excel file with your contacts, and any column becomes a placeholder you can drop into the message.
Does WHISPER fix Ghanaian phone number formats automatically?
Yes. WHISPER normalises Ghanaian numbers on upload, converting local formats like 024XXXXXXX into the international 233XXXXXXXXX format that networks require. Spaces, dashes and plus signs are stripped automatically, and numbers that cannot be valid are flagged instead of silently failing.
Can I schedule bulk SMS to send later?
Yes. You can schedule a campaign for a specific date and time, or set it to repeat daily, weekly or monthly. Scheduled messages send automatically without you being logged in, which suits recurring reminders like weekly service announcements or monthly dues notices.
How do I know whether my messages were delivered?
Every campaign has a delivery report showing the status of each recipient — delivered, pending or failed. Status updates arrive from the network in near real time, and you can download a receipt as a PDF for your records or to justify spend to a committee or board.
