    About GatewayAPI

    GatewayAPI is a communications platform-as-a-service (CPaaS) that specializes in global messaging via SMS and RCS (Rich Communication Services). It positions itself as a developer-friendly gateway designed to accelerate integration through various APIs and pre-built plugins for popular e-commerce and CRM tools. A significant focus of the service is on data sovereignty and compliance. Specifically, they offer an 'EU setup' where both hosting and corporate ownership are maintained within the European Union, specifically targeting organizations with strict data residency requirements. The company undergoes annual third-party audits (ISAE 3000 and ISAE 3402) to verify its GDPR compliance and security controls.
