Reloadly was developed as a native cloud API platform from day one — not retrofitted on top of older infrastructure. That focus shows up directly in the user experience: we spent over 90 days iterating on UI/UX testing alone before shipping the Portal you use today.

Integrating Reloadly is meant to feel effortless, whatever stack you're building on:

• Intuitive SDK toolkits built by developers, for developers — we're the only company in the space that provides them.
• Extensive documentation and video tutorials for every product.
• Innovative, flexible APIs designed to fit your existing architecture, not the other way around.
• Customizable HTML widgets and plugins, for teams who'd rather not build the UI from scratch.

Reloadly connects you to the world's leading mobile operators through a single integration:

Mobile airtime is where Reloadly started, but it's far from the whole story today. The same wallet and the same single integration also give you access to gift cards and prepaid virtual cards — so you're not stitching together three different vendors to cover what your customers actually want to buy.

We take a safety-first approach to protecting your account and your customers' data, across every product in the portfolio:

• Two-factor authentication (2FA) on every account.
• IP whitelisting for tighter API access control.
• Redundant cloud data centers across 5 regions.
• Industry best practices applied across the platform to keep your account protected.

Reloadly's team operates across 16 countries, with active customers in more than 160 countries worldwide — and the support experience is built to match that scale:

• One dashboard to rule them all — manage every product from a single user Portal.
• Single SKU manager per operator, so your catalog stays clean and consistent.
• Omnichannel support via email, chat, WhatsApp, Facebook DM, and Twitter DM — wherever you already are.

No separate billing relationships, no juggling multiple balances:

• Fund every product from one wallet — top-ups, gift cards, prepaid cards, and utility payments all draw from the same balance.
• Real-time exchange rates applied automatically across currencies.
• Wallet available in 100+ currencies, so you're never forced into a single base currency.
• Usage-based revenue model — you pay for what you actually send, with commission built in on every transaction.

🏆 Built by the pioneers of mobile airtime

Our founders have been working in mobile airtime since 2004, and they built the very first mobile airtime platform in the world. Reloadly is the product of two decades of experience in exactly this space — not a new entrant guessing at what the market needs.
