Rich SMS, also known as Rich Media Text or Rich Media Messaging, is simply an SMS with rich multimedia content. It takes SMS Marketing to the next level, providing visual content accessible from your SMS inbox through a unique shortened URL in the SMS.

Rich SMS allows enterprises to communicate with their customers more effectively by redirecting them from the URL in the SMS to their landing page to transmit information on their new products, promotions and special offers.
