What RGTN does

RGTN is a privately-held wholesale telecom enabler headquartered in Maastricht, the Netherlands, operating as both a Fixed Network Operator (FNO) and Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) through its Dutch subsidiary Redworks B.V. The company sells carrier-grade SMS and voice services to telecom operators, CPaaS providers, regulators, and micropayment providers across 200+ countries, anchored by direct carrier interconnects and geo-redundant points of presence in Amsterdam and New York. Core products include an SMS Gateway for A2P messaging, US voice termination with STIR/SHAKEN A-level attestation, CPaaS infrastructure (two-way voice/SMS, number access), and a stack of compliance and value-added modules — Compliance-as-a-Service (GDPR, TCPA, PSD2, India DLT), traffic screening and KYC, real-time ENUM lookups, SMS-based micropayments, and regulatory filing services.

The technology stack centers on a Class 4 & 5 ITHSP switch, direct-to-carrier delivery routes, and a productized compliance ledger covering DNO/DNC, STIR/SHAKEN, quiet-hour guardrails, and regulator-ready audit trails. RGTN holds an unusually dense set of regulatory accreditations for a sub-50-person firm, including ITU-T Associate Membership (since 2023) and US/Dutch accreditations across FCC, ATIS, NANPA, ACM, COIN, CIOT, and RDI. Revenue is generated primarily on a per-message and per-minute transaction basis for wholesale telecom services, supplemented by recurring KYC/compliance revenue streams; pricing is quote-based with no public list.

The go-to-market is sales-led and B2B wholesale, driven through qualification forms, direct engagement, and content marketing aimed at telecom decision-makers. RGTN Americas Inc. (New York) extends the footprint into North America, and the company has publicly positioned itself as an integrated platform-plus-compliance vendor rather than a pure bandwidth reseller, leveraging partnerships with Infobip, TransNexus, ITU, Xconnect, PortaOne, COIN, and Rabobank to expand capability and credibility.
