For more than twenty years, Afrihost has offered an impressive guarantee on several of its products, promising to pay customers the value of their package if they are unhappy about anything and cancel.

This double-your-money-back promise traces back to before 2004, when Afrihost only offered web hosting and wanted to encourage prospective customers to try its products.

While it has evolved to address abuse, keep pace with market shifts, and incorporate broadband products, Afrihost’s extraordinary guarantee remains in effect to this day.

Founded in 1999, Afrihost made a name for itself in South Africa’s hosting space for ten years before entering the broadband market.
