The acronyms stand for ‘Person to Person’ (P2P) &‘Application to Person’ (A2P) messaging or communication.

‘P2P’ communication has existed for decades with emails being in use since personal computers started consuming our lives. Then came ‘SMS’ and now ‘Social Media’ & ‘Instant Messengers’.

‘P2P’ communication has morphed over the years in behavioural aspects.

P2P communication is essentially unstructured messaging, by unstructured messaging we mean sharing of free form text, images, video, etc.

A2P’ communication as the name implies has an application (computing system or a back office software) at one end and a person at the other end.

In A2P communication, the content is machine generated and structured in nature like transactional reference information, account activity information and so on.

‘P2P’ communication has passed through a very successful behavioural change (‘social media’ & ‘instant messaging’) phase in the past decade.

As in the case of ‘P2P’ communication, behavioural change is bound to happen for ‘A2P’ communication in the coming decade. Which means there could be wide range adoption of messengers which support actionable messaging.
