Messaging for the whole ecosystem
Digital communication is growing rapidly, and messaging services are one of its most popular channels. Yet many publishers, advertisers, media owners and brand owners find it difficult to deal directly with operators when they want to use messaging to reach the right audience. CakraFlash was created to solve that dilemma, providing messaging solutions to the ecosystems that need the best service from one of the world’s messaging specialists.
Who we are
PT Cakra Alpha Spektrum is an Indonesia-based company operating under the brand name CakraFlash. It was founded in 2016 by Wahju Alianto Tedjo Sukmono and Muhamad Rifai. With the trust of its loyal customers, 90 percent of CakraFlash accounts are global customers, in countries such as Malaysia, Singapore, India, China, Hong Kong, the UAE, Serbia, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, the US, Croatia and Switzerland.
Many leading e-commerce, fintech, social media, banking and logistics companies, as well as SMEs and other industries, use CakraFlash messaging services to communicate with their end customers, for example to send one-time passwords (OTP) or SMS promotions more securely, efficiently and effectively. CakraFlash offers a 24/7 service and a heartfelt effort to satisfy customers to international standards. Our services are flexible, with dynamic collaboration and support in creating, planning, executing, delivering, measuring and optimising multichannel mass messaging campaigns. Customers receive transparent reports, with real-time access to web service tools and related platforms.
What we offer
CakraFlash Connect is our premier product and service, designed to let operators and customers communicate in the same language. We build infrastructure that enables customers to monetise an operator’s commercial inventories, such as A2P (application-to-person) messaging, location-based advertising (LBA), digital advertising, gift rewards and other operator inventories.
CakraFlash also offers non-operator products: WhatsApp for Business through an API (application programming interface), Cakra Messaging with SOIP (SMS over Internet Protocol), email blasts through an API, SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) trunking and voice-call OTP.
More than business
CakraFlash is not only profit-oriented: we also try to contribute to social and humanitarian causes. Our corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities include donations for orphans, mosque renovations, scholarships and weekly Friday donations for those in need.
