Why use your own domain for email
An address like you@yourbusiness.rw shows customers they are dealing with a real business. It also keeps your email with you: if a staff member leaves, the address and its messages stay with the company.
What you need
You need a domain name and an email plan. If you don't have a domain yet, register one first. A .rw name works well for a business in Rwanda.
Choosing a plan
Email is priced per mailbox, per month, from RWF 1,000. Plans differ in storage per mailbox, the number of aliases and the number of forwarding rules.
Aliases are extra addresses that deliver to the same mailbox, such as info@ and sales@. Forwarding rules send copies of incoming mail to another address.
- Starter: RWF 1,000 per mailbox a month, 5 GB per mailbox
- Standard: RWF 2,500 per mailbox a month, 20 GB per mailbox
- Premium: RWF 4,900 per mailbox a month, 50 GB per mailbox
Setting it up
Choose a plan from the Email page of your dashboard and create your mailboxes. Your domain, your website and your email are then managed in the same place.
Pay with MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money or Visa & Mastercard. Card payments include a 3.5% transaction fee.
