Visit lastborn.africa →A premium email address that ends in @firstborn.africa — like ade@firstborn.africa — instead of a random gmail or yahoo. It's a real, working inbox you can send and receive from. The difference is the name on it is yours, and only one person in the world can ever have it.
You don't have to choose — keep your Gmail. It's a great, powerful inbox and we're not trying to replace it. What we are offering is a custom email address that makes you look special, and with email forwarding, everything sent to your @firstborn.africa lands right in the current email you already use.

Not at all. Keep your Gmail. Turn on forwarding (it's on by default) and every message sent to your new @firstborn.africa address drops straight into the inbox you already check — so you never miss a thing while still owning a premium address.
