RCS Business Messaging is an upgraded version of SMS that allows businesses to send verified, branded, and interactive messages through customers' default messaging apps. Unlike traditional SMS, RCS includes business logos, verified sender profiles, images, videos, PDFs, Rich Cards, carousels, interactive buttons, read receipts, and two-way conversations.
