See where you can launch your RCS agent and what to expect during verification. Availability depends on the country and mobile network you are messaging, not where your business is based.
Create and test your agent now
You can create your RCS agent in Kudosity and test it on an RCS-enabled Android phone, even if RCS business messaging isn’t yet available for launch in your country. Simply add the phone as a test device and accept the invitation.
The availability below applies to launching your agent to message customers beyond your test devices, not to creating and testing it.
Country availability
Available for launch means you can submit an RCS agent for approval on supported networks in that country. It does not mean every network or device in the country can receive RCS messages.

Not all countries are shown. Contact your Kudosity representative for the full list of supported countries and networks.
Hosting region
When you create an RCS agent you choose one of three hosting regions: North America, Europe or Asia Pacific. The region is where your agent operates from and where it stores its data, and it cannot be changed after the agent is created.
Choose the region by the regulations that apply to you and by proximity to the people you message. If your customers are outside those three regions, pick the closest one: Latin America uses North America, and Africa uses Europe. The hosting region does not limit which countries or mobile networks you can launch in.
The Hosting region column in the table above shows the region to choose for each country.
Verification and launch
Once you request launch, the Kudosity team will contact you and guide you through verification and approval for your chosen countries and mobile networks.
You may be asked to provide business and brand details, describe the messages you plan to send, and explain how customers agree to receive messages and unsubscribe. We’ll let you know whether any additional information, forms or confirmation from your business are needed.
Requirements and approval times vary by country and network and can change. We’ll confirm what’s needed for your launch and keep you informed throughout the process.
