💡 WhatsApp API Basics
What is a message template?
Message templates are pre-approved message formats that you submit to Meta for review. They are required for sending marketing, utility, or authentication messages outside the 24-hour conversation window. Templates can include text, images, buttons, and variables like customer name or order number.
What is the 24-hour conversation window?
When a customer sends you a message, a 24-hour window opens during which you can reply with free-form text messages. After 24 hours without a customer reply, the window closes and you must use an approved template to re-engage the conversation.
How does opt-in work?
Before sending marketing messages, customers must explicitly opt-in to receive WhatsApp communications from you. Meta requires proof of opt-in. You can collect opt-ins through web forms, in-store sign-ups, or by asking customers to message you first. 6rsh tracks opt-in status for each contact.
What are conversation charges?
Meta charges per conversation (24-hour window), not per message. Marketing conversations cost approximately $0.02–0.08 per conversation depending on the destination country. Utility and authentication conversations are typically cheaper. Service conversations (customer-initiated) may be free depending on your monthly allocation. All charges appear in your Meta Business account.
Marketing vs Utility vs Authentication messages
Marketing: Promotions, offers, announcements. Subject to monthly limits on free plan. Utility: Order updates, shipping notifications, appointment reminders. No monthly limits. Authentication: OTP codes, verification messages. No monthly limits.
What quality rating means
Meta assigns a quality rating (GREEN/YELLOW/RED) based on customer feedback. If many customers block or report your number, the rating drops. A RED rating can lead to messaging restrictions. Maintain quality by only messaging opted-in contacts with relevant content.
