AWS End User Messaging RCS for Business now available in 20 additional countries

AWS End User Messaging Updates

AWS End User Messaging now supports RCS for Business messaging in 20 additional countries, bringing the total to 22. Businesses can now send verified, branded RCS messages to customers in Austria, Brazil, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Dominican Republic, France, Germany, Guatemala, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Peru, Poland, Singapore, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, in addition to the United States and Canada.

Customers can use the existing SendTextMessage API to send RCS messages to these countries with no application changes. Messages are delivered from a recognized business identity, and when a recipient's device does not support RCS, they automatically fall back to SMS for reliable delivery.

What to do

• Use the SendTextMessage API to send RCS messages to the new countries.
• Check the AWS End User Messaging pricing page for details on pricing by destination country.
• Refer to the AWS End User Messaging User Guide for more information on RCS for Business.
