Message templates

Create, submit and reuse approved templates with personalised variables.

Templates are the pre-approved messages WhatsApp requires for business-initiated conversations. VPmessage helps you draft, submit and organise them.

Templates support variables so a single approved message can be personalised per contact, and are categorised (for example marketing or utility) per WhatsApp's rules.

How it works

  1. 1Draft a template with text, variables and optional media/buttons.
  2. 2Submit it for WhatsApp review.
  3. 3Once approved, use it in campaigns or automation.
  4. 4Track approval status and edit rejected templates.

Good to know

Honest limitations

What to keep in mind so expectations match how the WhatsApp Business Platform actually works.

  • Templates are reviewed by WhatsApp; approval is not guaranteed and timing is set by the platform, not by VPmessage.
  • Template categories and formatting must follow current WhatsApp rules.

Questions about this feature
