RCS Messaging for the Dundee Market

Many Dundee businesses come to us after trying generic, one-size-fits-all RCS messaging. RCS lets customers browse offers, tap to call or book and reply with suggested answers without installing anything new. Here we cover the local context in Dundee, use cases by industry, the regulations to plan around in the United Kingdom, our step-by-step approach and the factors that shape pricing.

Dundee is known for its video games industry, life sciences research and the V&A Dundee museum on its waterfront.

Dundee's games and technology employers often recruit internationally. Whether your business operates around the city centre, the Waterfront, the West End and Broughty Ferry, or serves customers across the United Kingdom, we shape RCS messaging work around the way your customers search, browse and communicate.

Dundee Market Notes for RCS Messaging

Who your customers are

Dundee's customers include video-games and technology companies, life-sciences businesses, universities and tourism linked to the V&A Dundee.

How they choose and contact a business

Dundee customers value friendly, creative communication.

When demand peaks

Student arrivals in September and the Dundee Science Festival in November are key moments. Rich cards and carousels for these periods are designed early, with SMS fallback for phones that do not support RCS.

Digital Habits and Channels in the United Kingdom

Almost every adult in the UK owns a smartphone, and WhatsApp is the most used messaging app, but SMS remains the trusted channel for appointment reminders, delivery updates and one-time passcodes from banks, the NHS and couriers. Alphanumeric sender IDs (a brand name instead of a number) are widely supported, and the UK's Mobile Ecosystem Forum runs a SMS SenderID Protection Registry that helps block impersonation of registered brand names.

Card and contactless payments dominate, with Apple Pay, Google Pay and PayPal common online, and Buy Now Pay Later is popular in fashion retail. The retail calendar is built around Black Friday, Boxing Day sales, Mother's Day in March and the summer holidays, and many businesses quote prices including 20% VAT.

The UK economy is led by services: financial services in London and Edinburgh, professional services, creative industries, higher education and healthcare, with manufacturing in aerospace, cars and pharmaceuticals. VAT is 20%, and most consumer prices include it. Under PECR, marketing SMS and email to individuals need prior consent, unless the 'soft opt-in' for existing customers applies, and the ICO can fine companies for breaches. The Telephone Preference Service (TPS) lets people block sales calls. Contactless card payments and Apple Pay are used for most everyday spending.
