Send campaigns, OTPs and alerts to NTC and Ncell numbers in Kathmandu from a web panel or a REST API — in English or Nepali, with a delivery report for every message, from Rs 0.70 per SMS.
Kathmandu is where most of Nepal's registered businesses keep their head office, and where nearly every bank, hospital group, college and online store runs the system that has to tell a customer something. That is why bulk SMS matters more here than anywhere else in the country: the customer list is the largest, and it is the one most likely to be spread across both NTC and Ncell.
An SMS is also the only channel inside the Ring Road that does not depend on the recipient having data, an app installed, or the notification switched on. A delivery rider at the gate, a rescheduled appointment at a Maharajgunj hospital and a one-time password at checkout all reach a handset the same way, on the oldest and most reliable path a Nepali phone has.
NTC and Ncell numbers in Kathmandu are sent to from the same account, at the same rate, with no separate arrangement to make.
Devanagari is sent as Unicode and arrives as Nepali on the handset. Preeti text can be converted first with our free converter.
Per-recipient delivery status in the panel or over the API — the record you need when somebody says they were never told.
A registered sender ID puts your business name on the message instead of a number. We handle the operator paperwork with you.
OTPs for logins and transfers, balance alerts, and loan and EMI reminders from banks, finance companies and the co-operatives around New Road and Putalisadak.
Order confirmations, dispatch notices and 'your rider is at the gate' messages — the ones that decide whether a Kathmandu delivery succeeds on the first attempt.
Appointment reminders, report-ready alerts and follow-up calls, for practices whose patients travel in from the whole valley for one visit.
Fee notices, exam and result announcements, and the holiday or closure message that has to reach every parent before the school run starts.
The rate is set by the size of your top-up, not by where you or your recipients are — a Kathmandu number costs exactly what any other Nepali number costs. There is no setup fee and no monthly minimum.
| Message | Per SMS part |
|---|---|
| English only (GSM-7), single part | 160 chars |
| English, each part of a longer message | 153 chars |
| Nepali or any Unicode, single part | 70 chars |
| Nepali, each part of a longer message | 67 chars |
One credit sends one part to one recipient. A 200-character Nepali notice is three parts, so 500 recipients in Kathmandu spends 1,500 credits — the same notice in English would spend 500. Count your message first.
Registration takes a few minutes and costs nothing. No office visit, no setup fee, and nothing to sign before you can test.
Import your list from a file and group it however you work. Pay with eSewa, Khalti or ConnectIPS and the credits land immediately.
Send from the panel, schedule it for a date, or call the REST API from your own system. Delivery reports come back either way.
One account reaches every Nepali number on NTC and Ncell — these pages just answer the question for each place in turn.
Free account, no setup fee, and prepaid credits that do not expire on a monthly cycle. Verify your mobile number and the first 100 SMS — 50 Bulk and 50 API — are free. Or tell us your volume and we will quote you a rate.
