RCS (Rich Communication Services) upgrades the humble SMS into an app-like experience. Your messages arrive with your brand name, logo and verified badge instead of a numeric sender ID, and can carry images, carousels, maps and tappable buttons — all inside the default Google Messages app that ships on Android phones across India.
Because the verified sender badge is issued through Google's RCS programme, customers immediately know the message is genuinely from your brand and not a fraud attempt. For banks, e-commerce brands and consumer businesses fighting SMS spoofing, that trust signal directly lifts open and click rates.
Guru SMS manages the complete RCS journey: brand verification with Google, rich template design, campaign delivery with automatic SMS fallback for non-RCS handsets, and unified reporting. You get the engagement of an app notification with the reach of a text message — one campaign, every phone covered.

FAQs — RCS Business Messaging
What exactly is RCS and how is it different from SMS?
RCS is the next generation of SMS built into Google Messages on Android. It supports branding, images, carousels, read receipts and tappable buttons, while SMS is plain text. RCS messages also show your verified brand identity instead of a random numeric sender.
Do my customers need to install any app to receive RCS?
No. RCS messages arrive in Google Messages, the default texting app on most Android phones sold in India. Customers receive your rich messages exactly where their SMS already lands, with zero downloads or sign-ups.
What happens if a customer's phone does not support RCS?
Our platform detects capability before sending and automatically delivers a standard SMS version of your campaign to those handsets. You get one unified report covering both channels, and no customer is left out.
How does brand verification for RCS work?
We submit your business details, logo and brand assets to Google's RCS programme on your behalf. Once approved, every message you send displays your brand name and verified badge — a process that typically completes within one to two weeks.
Is RCS messaging covered by DLT regulations in India?
RCS operates under Google's brand verification and operator policies rather than the SMS DLT framework, but consent rules still apply. We run RCS campaigns only to opted-in audiences and maintain audit records, keeping your brand fully compliant.
Can I track who read or clicked my RCS messages?
Yes. RCS reports delivery, read and click events for each recipient — far richer than SMS delivery reports. Your dashboard shows engagement per campaign, per template and per button so you can see precisely what works.
What volumes can RCS campaigns handle?
The same scale as our SMS infrastructure: lakhs of messages per campaign with scheduling, throughput control and retry handling. Many clients run RCS to capable handsets and SMS fallback in one seamless blast.
What does an RCS campaign cost compared to SMS?
Per-message pricing depends on volume and message type, and rich messages are priced differently from plain texts. Request a quote with your expected volumes and we will share transparent slab-wise pricing with no hidden charges.
