Why Sekretess Is Replacing SMS — And What That Means for You

Aug 5, 2025

SMS has served us for decades—but it was never designed for privacy or speed in the digital age. Whether it’s a bank sending a one-time password or a retailer pushing a marketing offer, traditional SMS exposes both businesses and users to vulnerabilities like SIM swapping, spoofing, and message interception through global SMS hubs.

At Sekretess, we’re replacing SMS with something better.

Our over-the-internet messaging platform ensures that all communications—whether public or private—are end-to-end encrypted. Only the sender and recipient can access the message. Not even we at Sekretess can read it. That’s our promise of privacy.

Two Powerful Communication Flows

We support two flows:

  • Public Flow: Perfect for marketing and announcements. Messages are verified, encrypted, and scalable to millions of users. Businesses like Zara can reach subscribers instantly, while users stay in control with one-tap subscribe/unsubscribe options.

  • Private Flow: Built for banks, healthcare, and identity providers. Messages like OTPs or account alerts are secured and visible only to the intended user—even while roaming internationally. This eliminates the risks associated with SMS-based authentication.

Trust Through Verified Senders

Businesses that use Sekretess are verified before they can send a single message. This reduces spam, prevents phishing, and builds trust with end users who know exactly who the message came from.

Performance That Scales

Because Sekretess uses encrypted internet channels instead of SMS gateways, we ensure faster delivery, real-time scalability, and consistent performance—even during peak loads.

Your Privacy, Our Mission

We are based in Sweden and committed to building a safer, more private digital world. With Sekretess, your communication stays yours. No surveillance. No data sharing. No compromise.


Sekretess isn’t just another messaging tool—it’s the future of secure communication. And the future doesn’t need SMS.
