quickstart.sh

# 1. Create a bot in the app: Settings -> Developer -> My bots
# 2. Copy your test token, then:
curl https://api.sprintelex.com/sendMessage \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your-test-token>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"chat_id": "<chat-id>", "text": "Hello from my bot"}'

# -> { "ok": true, "result": { "message_id": "..." } }

Every bot gets a test token (sandbox only) and a live token. Build against test, ship on live.

Build a mini app Bridge reference

The engineering under the chat

Built by a small team in Accra that cares about the last millisecond.

End-to-end encryption

Sige, our own implementation of the Signal protocol. Servers relay ciphertext they cannot read.

A native chat engine

React Native with hand-tuned native hot paths: the thread list and chats tab rebuilt for speed.

Real money rails

Payments settle through licensed mobile-money processors across MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash and AT Money.

Built for real networks

Offline send queues, chunked resumable media, low-data defaults. Engineered for the connections users actually have.

Build with SprinTelex

We are opening early access to payment and messaging integrations for businesses in Ghana. If that is you, we want to hear what you would build.
