Frequently asked questions about SMS, RCS and WhatsApp Gateway

SMS, RCS and WhatsApp gateway is a messaging service that allows a company to send messages directly from its own systems to mobile networks and messaging applications.

The gateway acts as a connecting technology between enterprise systems and communication channels, enabling efficient and scalable communication.

SMS gateway is a technical service responsible for sending and delivering messages to recipients.

The SMS API is the interface that allows the company’s systems to automatically use this gateway.

In one-way gateways, messages only travel from the company to the recipient, and the recipient cannot reply to the same message. This is suitable for things like newsletters and reminders.

The two-way gateway also allows for answering and conversation, so it is used for customer service and interactive communication, for example.

The company creates the message either in the interface or in its own system and sends it through the gateway to the selected channel. The gateway then delivers the message to the recipient via a mobile network or an application.

Delivery can be monitored in real time through reporting, and the service can be directly integrated with other systems in the company for automation.
