Mobile Money payments
Collect from customers in MTN MoMo, Orange Money and Wave. Tidio only offers card and PayPal.
Tidio alternative
The African alternative to Tidio
Tidio is a good tool — but it's expensive, in English, and can't collect payment from your customers. TextDigo offers Live Chat, WhatsApp and Melia AI, built for French-speaking Africa.
Why African e-merchants choose TextDigo
The same features, adapted to your reality.
Local-currency pricing
Pricing in local currency, not converted dollars that climb every month.
100% French support
A team and docs built for African SMBs, reachable even over WhatsApp.
WhatsApp Business included
The official WhatsApp API is native in TextDigo, where it's often a separate add-on.
