RCS margin goes wrong quietly. Rates differ by country and by message type, carriers change them, and a TEXT rate that looks fine can sit below cost for RICH. The platform helps here: it compares vendor cost against customer rates every day and pings you on Telegram when something is upside down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Admin Panel > RCS > RCS Vendors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A vendor record holds the API endpoint, credentials and branding used when syncing bots, submitting templates and sending traffic. The list gives you the vendor ID, name, logo and a Credentials<\/strong> button that opens API keys, client ID and secrets in a modal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Treat that modal as sensitive. Restrict which admin roles can open this page, and do not export or screenshot credentials outside your operations team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When a vendor rotates keys: change them in the vendor portal first, update them here, then re-sync the affected bots. Credentials are shared by every bot on that vendor, so one wrong paste takes all of them down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Admin Panel > RCS > RCS Vendor Pricing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is what RCS costs you, per vendor, country and message type. Breadcrumb actions are Manage<\/strong>, Add<\/strong> and Import<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Filter by vendor, country, message type and active status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Admin Panel > RCS > RCS Users Pricing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The other side of the equation: the rate cards assigned to each account. Outbound RCS billing uses these when calculating cost on delivery reports and summaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rows carry user, optional bot scope, country, message type (TEXT, RICH and related types), the rate with currency, and an active flag. You can filter by all of those, edit a row, or deactivate it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bot level rates are useful when one customer runs several bots with different commercial deals, for example their own brand versus a brand they resell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A daily job compares vendor pricing with user pricing and alerts admins on Telegram when a customer rate is below vendor cost. An info banner on the vendor pricing page reminds you it exists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Two things to do with it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Connect your upstream RCS aggregator, load its cost rates, price your customers above them, and get told when a rate slips below cost.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[422],"tags":[436,435,355,434,433,350],"class_list":["post-1021","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-rcs","tag-credentials","tag-low-rate-alert","tag-margin","tag-rcs-vendors","tag-user-pricing","tag-vendor-pricing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smppcenter.com\/kb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1021","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smppcenter.com\/kb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smppcenter.com\/kb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smppcenter.com\/kb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smppcenter.com\/kb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1021"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/smppcenter.com\/kb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1021\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smppcenter.com\/kb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1021"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smppcenter.com\/kb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1021"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smppcenter.com\/kb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1021"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}RCS Vendor Pricing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
