Why we like this template

WhatsApp message templates are pre-approved message formats required by Meta for sending outbound messages via the WhatsApp Business API. Every message sent outside the 24-hour conversation window must use an approved template. These templates support text, images, documents, videos, quick reply buttons, and call-to-action buttons.

How to use it

Go to WhatsApp Templates

Navigate to Settings > Channels > WhatsApp > Message Templates in Lodgestory.

Create New Template

Click 'New Template' and select the category (Marketing, Utility, or Authentication).

Copy & Customise

Paste the template content and replace the placeholder variables ({{1}}, {{2}}, etc.) with your dynamic field names.

Add Buttons

Submit for Approval

Tips for best results

  • Keep marketing templates under 1024 characters for best delivery rates
  • Use utility templates for transactional messages — they have higher delivery priority
  • Include a clear call-to-action button in every template
  • Test templates with a small audience before broadcasting to your full list
  • Use the {{1}}, {{2}} format for variables — Lodgestory maps these to contact fields automatically
  • Authentication templates require a one-time password (OTP) copy button for best UX
