The global logistics leader DHL Express with their online platform On Demand Delivery allows receivers to manage their shipment delivery on a global scale. They truly understand that customer experience is everything and with a few clicks the customers will be able to choose where and when to receive their purchase, follow their parcel online, pay for duty, change delivery and much more.

The global logistic leader has taken a bold step by leveraging the next generation of SMS, Rich Communication Services (RCS) to communicate with users during parcel delivery. First market out is Germany in cooperation with the mobile carriers Telefonica, Vodafone, and Deutsche Telekom.

The Power of RCS Messaging

Rich Communication Services (RCS) is the next evolution of SMS messaging. It offers a more dynamic and interactive experience for users, making it an ideal choice for businesses like DHL Express to communicate with their customers effectively.
