longer limited to sending simple SMS text: it has become a platform. The
features of this new platform enable businesses to deliver intuitive and
interactive campaigns to their customers while maintaining the reach,
reliability and ubiquity of the biggest messaging platform in the world – SMS.
This is an exciting time for both HDFC Bank and Route Mobile to collaborate and
leverage RCS Business Messaging in India. At Google’s RCS showcase in the GSMA
Innovation City at MWC 2019, Route Mobile will present a demonstration of its
first RCS Business Messaging POC for HDFC Bank, allowing the customers to
interact within the messaging platform via 2 Way interactive communications.
There are multiple features of RCS Business Messaging which helps the user to
communicate with HDFC Bank, which include but not limited to integrated Chabot,
suggested replies, and cards which makes two-way communication easy. The RCS
messaging agent educates the existing users on how to use their current HDFC
Bank’s mobile banking App.
Mobile World Congress is the world’s largest mobile event with more than 2,400
