Clickatell Founders

A big idea. A tiny apartment

Our story began in a modest Cape Town apartment in early 2000, where Pieter de Villiers, his brother Casper, and friends Danie du Toit, and Patrick Lawson.

Goodbye, good friend!

One of the four original founders of Clickatell, Danie du Toit was the custodian of our brand and product offering until 2005. Sadly, after a long battle with leukemia, Danie passed away August 16, 2005. We recognize his vision and contribution in establishing Clickatell as one of the leading mobile enablers in the world. We continue to track the “footprints” Danie left in the company that are inspiring until this day.

Global presence, virtual workplace.

We're one global team, coming together (virtually) from different parts of the world to collaborate together everyday. Though we're remote first, we also have hubs in key areas where we can meet and connect in person.
