Quick answer. A verified sender is a business RCS identity that Google and the carriers have vetted and approved, displayed to recipients with the brand’s name, logo, and a verification checkmark. Verification is what lets customers trust that a message genuinely comes from the brand it claims to, and it’s a core anti-spoofing and anti-phishing feature of RCS that SMS lacks. In RBM terms, the verified sender is the launched, approved agent.
