Chargeable Events for RCS:

We will charge only in the following cases:

  • Sent

  • Delivered

  • Read

Note on “Sent” Status:
When an RCS message shows as Sent, it means it has reached the user’s RCS app, but the user’s phone might be temporarily offline (for example, their internet is off), the message will be automatically delivered once the device reconnects. hence, it is a valid chargeable event.
