Truecaller has announced the global expansion of its Business Chat platform, giving international channel partners and enterprise solution providers access to the service.

The company said the expansion, announced on 2 April 2026, will allow partners to help businesses move away from traditional SMS messaging. Instead, companies can now communicate with customers through verified, interactive business chats in the Truecaller app.

According to Truecaller, the aim is to make business messaging safer and more trustworthy for users, while reducing disruption and limiting the spread of spam and fraudulent messages often linked to regular text communication.

Businesses Focus Less on Delivery, More on Trust and Action

Priyam Bose, Global Head of Go‑To‑Market at Truecaller, said businesses are now evaluated on more than whether their messages simply reach customers.

He explained that sending messages alone is no longer enough. Brands must capture attention, earn trust, and motivate customers to take action.

“The definition of success for modern enterprises has changed. It’s no longer just about delivery. It’s about earning attention, building trust, and driving real results,” Bose said.

He added that opening the Business Chat platform to global partners allows brands to reach over 500 million active Truecaller users through a channel people already use every day.

For companies already using Truecaller, the Business Chat platform adds another strong way to communicate with customers and improve their overall experience.

Truecaller Verified Business Chats Offer Clearer and Safer Messaging

Truecaller Business Chat is designed to provide businesses and customers with a clean and secure way to communicate. Messages are delivered within the Truecaller app, where business profiles are verified, allowing users to easily see who they are interacting with.

According to the company, this verification helps reduce confusion and builds user confidence, as people can clearly distinguish legitimate business messages from spam or fraudulent communications.

Unlike many digital messaging platforms, the Business Chat experience is deliberately kept simple and free from unnecessary distractions.

The platform also offers businesses access to real‑time data and engagement insights. This enables companies to track how customers respond to messages and make timely adjustments to their communication strategies at different stages of the customer journey.

The company said this data‑driven approach helps businesses plan their messaging more effectively and maintain clearer communication with customers over time.

Several partners are already offering the Business Chat service across different regions. In India, partners include Gupshup and OneXtel, while in other markets, Globe Teleservices, Cloudcom, and Sling Africa are actively rolling out the product and expanding its use.

With the global expansion now open, Truecaller said more partners can join the platform and offer Business Chat to their clients. This, the company explained, makes it easier for businesses to reach customers in a trusted way, even as digital communication channels become more crowded.

Truecaller currently has more than 500 million active users worldwide and has been downloaded over one billion times since its launch. In 2025 alone, the company said it identified 68 billion spam and fraud calls.

The company is headquartered in Stockholm and has been listed on Nasdaq Stockholm since October 2021.
