Business email hosting in Kenya

Why companies move off personal Gmail

Personal addresses work until you hire people, send invoices, or talk to banks and partners. A shared inbox looks informal, and staff leave taking the address with them. Company email — name@yourcompany.co.ke or .com — keeps mail under the business and makes it easier to add or remove people.

What “email hosting” actually is

Your domain registrar stores the domain name. An email host runs the mailboxes and servers that send and receive mail for that domain. You point DNS records (especially MX) at the host. After that, people sign in with webmail or a mail app.

Fayvad Mail is that host: webmail in the browser, mailboxes for your team, and an organization admin who creates users — with yearly plans in KES.

DNS in short (MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC)

• MX — tells the internet where to deliver mail for your domain.
• SPF — lists servers allowed to send mail as your domain (reduces spoofing).
• DKIM — signs outgoing mail so receivers can check it wasn’t altered.
• DMARC — tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF/DKIM checks.

You don’t need to memorize the records. On paid plans we share the values to add at your registrar. Trials start on a shared Fayvad domain so you can test the product before changing DNS.

What it typically costs

Global suites bill in USD per user per month. For many Kenyan SMEs, a yearly plan with a fixed account limit is easier to budget. Fayvad Mail publishes prices in KES — from a free trial (up to 5 accounts) through Basic, Professional, and Enterprise. Payment for paid plans can be arranged via M-Pesa or bank transfer.

A simple path to get started

1. Register an organization and try webmail on the trial domain.
2. Create mailboxes for the people who need them (within your plan limit).
3. When you’re ready, upgrade and point your domain’s DNS at Fayvad.
4. Keep using webmail — or connect a desktop/mobile client if you prefer.
