Sacramento Kings use next-gen texting to send tickets and schedules

September 11, 2018

The Sacramento Kings are still as obsessed with technology as ever, although their latest move could be particularly helpful in the long run. The basketball team has teamed up with Zipwhip to become the first pro sports outfit to use next-gen RCS texting. The richer format lets the Kings send tickets, schedules and other rich info without making you check your email or use a specialized app — you can just use the same texting app you would to message your friends.
