Questions & answers

How do I get started?

How much does it cost?

The RCS pricing model reflects the value of your brand and how and to what extent the technology can be integrated for each application. Pricing is also affected by the number of messages, sessions, active users, clicks, and views.

What is the difference between Google Business Message & Google RCS Business Messaging?

Google's RCS upgrades the SMS with brand, rich media, interactivity and analysis. RCS allows companies to create interactive mobile experiences via SMS. Google Business Message has the same functionality but is accessible when consumers use the Google search function.

Where is RCS supported?

Support for RCS is continuously growing. For more information, contact one of our experts

Is RCS reliable?

All senders must be registered and verified by the RCS service provider to ensure authentication. This is done to prevent fraud and create reliable communications.  RCS is therefore an interesting alternative for sectors that send sensitive information to their customers.

How is RCS affected by GDPR?

GDPR and other new legislation have set privacy restrictions on how you can communicate with customers and prospects. Mobile users must choose to allow messages from companies. Android customers who have already selected SMS messages from a company will automatically receive the upgraded RCS experience.

How long a message can I send?

Unlike SMS, there is no limit of 160 characters. This makes the content of the message more robust.

What happens if the recipient's mobile don't support RCS?

Phones that aren’t yet compatible get an SMS instead.
