Why Use a .co.za Email Address Instead of Gmail?
Customers, suppliers and government departments judge your business by its email address. An address like thabo.cleaning@gmail.com looks temporary. thabo@thabocleaning.co.za looks like a registered company that will still be around next year.
A .co.za email address also tells people you are a South African business. That matters when you submit tenders, register on the Central Supplier Database, send quotes or apply for credit. A free email address on a quote can make a buyer wonder whether your business is properly set up.
With your own domain you also own your email. If a staff member leaves, you keep their mailbox and every client conversation in it. You can add addresses like sales@ or accounts@ as you grow, all under one brand.

| Free Gmail | Your .co.za email | |
|---|---|---|
| Looks professional | No | Yes |
| Shows you are South African | No | Yes |
| Builds trust on tenders and quotes | Less | Yes |
| Addresses for each staff member | No | Yes |
| Your business owns the data | No | Yes |
| Matching website domain | No | Yes |

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about .co.za domain registration and business email with EmailPros.
What is a .co.za email address?
A .co.za email address is a business email that ends in your own South African domain, for example info@yourbusiness.co.za. It shows customers you are a registered, local business instead of using a free Gmail or Yahoo address.
Do I need technical skills to get my .co.za emails working?
No. We register the domain, create every mailbox, set the passwords and configure the server. You get a simple welcome pack that shows you how to add the emails to your phone, Outlook or webmail.
How long does it take?
Your domain is registered and your emails are ready within 3 working hours after payment is confirmed. Orders placed after hours are done the next working morning.
Can I use my .co.za email on my phone and computer?
Yes. Your emails work on Android and iPhone, on Outlook and Apple Mail, and in any browser through webmail. They stay in sync on all your devices.
Are there monthly fees?
No. You pay once a year. The package price covers the domain, hosting, email accounts, SSL and backups for 12 months. There are no monthly debit orders.
What happens when my 12 months are up?
Like every domain on the internet, your domain and hosting must be renewed each year. We remind you well before the renewal date so your emails never stop working.
Can I choose a .com instead of .co.za?
Yes. Every package includes either a free .co.za or a free .com domain. A .co.za tells customers you are a South African business, which is why most of our clients choose it.
What if I am not happy?
You are covered by our 7-day money-back guarantee. If the service is not right for you, ask for a refund within 7 days and you get your money back in full.
