Reach Jio's 450M+ subscribers with rich, verified RCS messages — from ₹0.12 a message, with no setup fee.
Jio was the first major Indian carrier to launch RCS Business Messaging, back in 2021, and today covers 450M+ eligible subscribers across metro, Tier 2, and most Tier 3 cities — including iPhone users on iOS 18+, which most Indian carriers still don't support. Rich cards, carousels, verified sender badges, and suggested replies come standard. MetaReach handles sender verification and template approval, with pricing from ₹0.12 per message and automatic SMS fallback wherever RCS isn't available.
Yes — and Jio got there first. It was the initial major Indian carrier to launch RCS Business Messaging, back in 2021, and that early move is really what kicked off mass RCS adoption across the country. Before Jio rolled it out, rich business messages simply couldn't reach most Indian mobile subscribers at any real scale. Today, Jio still runs one of the strongest RCS networks in India, covering both standard Android RCS through Google Messages and RCS on supported iPhones.
Jio's RCS Business Messaging reaches subscribers across metro cities, Tier 2 cities, and most Tier 3 towns in India — one of the widest footprints available for rich messaging anywhere in the country. For a full side-by-side breakdown across all three major Indian carriers, see our RCS Network Coverage guide.
On Jio, RCS works on any Android device running version 5.0 or later, with Google Messages installed and set as default — our RCS Supported Devices guide has the full brand-by-brand breakdown (Samsung, Xiaomi, Vivo, Oppo, OnePlus, Motorola, Google Pixel). What sets Jio apart is the iPhone side: it was among the first Indian carriers to enable RCS for iPhone users on iOS 18 or later, which gives businesses one of the earliest routes to reach both Android and iPhone customers with rich messaging on a single network.
For businesses, Jio RCS supports the full feature set — verified sender badges, rich cards with images and buttons, carousels, and suggested replies, all delivered straight into a customer's native messaging app with nothing extra to download. On Jio specifically, the common use cases tend to be order confirmations, delivery updates, appointment reminders, and promotional carousels, with automatic SMS fallback for anyone whose device doesn't support RCS.
| Tier | Volume | Price per Message |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | Up to 5,000/month | ₹0.20 |
| Business | 5,000 – 50,000/month | ₹0.15 |
| Enterprise | 100,000+/month | ₹0.12 |
