== History ==
The company was founded to address a need in South Africa for an SMS provider that could enable the sending of multiple texts to different countries from a single website. It was founded by Pieter de Villiers in Cape Town, South Africa.
In 2006, the company acquired the assets of Multimode, Inc., an application service provider that offers global delivery of time-critical notifications to communication devices of all types, and established its headquarters in Redwood City, California. In 2008 Clickatell received venture capital funding from Sequoia Capital and became a USA private company backed by large private equity investors.〔
In 2009, Clickatell provided the U.S. Department of State (USDOS) with a mobile message service to enable it to give African and international/non-U.S. citizens around the world live speech highlights during a speech given by U.S. President Barack Obama from Accra, Ghana. In addition, enrolled participants were able to send comments via text message back to the USDOS, where selected responses were posted online. Clickatell’s involvement in this service resulted in a World Technology Award nomination from the World Technology Network in association with TIME magazine, Fortune Magazine, and Science Magazine for work of "the greatest likely long-term significance" in Communications and Technology Sector.
