Fair use, so your mail keeps landing in inboxes. Business Email is for everyday business mail and website notifications: up to 600 emails an hour per domain to outside addresses. Bulk marketing and newsletters are not allowed; use a newsletter service for those.

Frequently asked questions

Once your email is live, your domain administrator signs in to webmail and opens More, then Domain Marketplace, then eM Client, and requests the code. The licence key is shown and emailed straight away. It covers up to 3 Windows or Mac computers per domain; on phones, use the free eM Client app. We are happy to walk you through it.

No. Business Email works with any website, wherever it is hosted. You only need a domain name you control. Your website stays exactly where it is; only the email records of your domain change.

It is built into Hostiko's own webmail. From any email you can ask it to summarise, draft a reply or translate between English and Kiswahili; while writing you can ask it to polish, shorten or formalise your text. It only runs when you press the button, you see the result before it is used, and it is included in every plan.

Yes. Open the live demo on this page: a real Business Email mailbox for a sample company, opened in your browser in one click, with no sign-up. Prefer a guided tour? Message us and we will show you around webmail, the calendar, files and phone or Outlook set-up.

Pick a plan, enter your domain and pay with M-Pesa or card. Your email is created straight away, and your setup page lists the few DNS records to add, with copy buttons, ticking each step off as it goes live. If your domain is with us, we can add them for you.

Yes. A built-in migration tool copies your folders and messages from your current provider (cPanel, another host, Gmail or Outlook mailboxes that allow IMAP). Tell us if you would like a hand and we will help you through it.

Any of them. Outlook (including Exchange-style sync), Apple Mail, Thunderbird, and the mail apps on iPhone and Android all work, plus the Gmail app. Calendars and contacts sync too. Or just use the webmail in your browser.

No, and that is the point. You pay one yearly price for your domain and create as many mailboxes as you like on every plan. Plans differ only by storage (5 GB, 15 GB or 50 GB shared across your mailboxes) and a few extras.

Move up to the next plan at any time; your mailboxes and addresses stay exactly as they are. Your setup page shows how much storage you are using.

Up to 600 emails an hour per domain to outside addresses, which is far more than normal business mail needs. If you send genuine business mail and keep reaching that limit, contact us and we can ask for a higher limit once your account has some history. Bulk marketing and newsletters are not allowed on Business Email; use a newsletter service for those so your everyday mail keeps a clean reputation.

Yes, on every plan. Incoming mail passes through a premium spam, virus and phishing filter before it reaches you, and anything caught by mistake can be released from quarantine in one click.

In a professional data centre in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, so your mail is covered by the European Union's strict data protection rules. Mail and files are backed up to a separate data centre several times a day.

Yes. Larger plans are available on request, for a few hundred gigabytes up to several terabytes. Contact us with the storage you need and we will send you a price.

You get reminders before your renewal date. If a renewal stays unpaid, the email is suspended (mail is kept) and comes back the moment you pay. Only after a long period unpaid is it removed, as set out in our Terms of Service.
