When to send

The right moment
for each one.

  • Right after someone books, with the day and time.
  • The day before the appointment, so fewer people forget.
  • Whenever you move or cancel a booking.
Getting it approved

What Meta’s
reviewer looks for.

  • Name the day and time in the message itself: Meta’s reviewer looks for details that belong to one booking.
  • Send one reminder per appointment. People who feel they get too many messages block the number, which lowers its quality rating.
  • Quick reply buttons like Confirm and Reschedule send the customer’s answer back as a reply, which opens the chat again.

Utility templates are about the customer’s own order, account, booking, payment or request, or something essential for them to know, with nothing in them that promotes or persuades.

Sending it with Syniria

From the Inbox, to one customer

  • Write the template once in Syniria’s builder, or copy one from this page, and send it to Meta for review.
  • Once 24 hours have passed since the customer’s last message, open their chat in the Inbox and send it. Their first name fills in from the contact, and you type the rest, such as the order number or the time.
  • Within those 24 hours, just reply: no template is needed.

Questions, answered

Clear answers.
Before you start.

Know what your agent can do and how it fits your business.

Talk to the team
How far ahead should I send an appointment reminder?

A day before suits most businesses, and a few hours before suits same-day bookings. Send one reminder per appointment: more than that reads as spam to many people.

Can customers confirm or reschedule from the message?

Yes, with quick reply buttons such as Confirm and Reschedule. A tap sends that word back to you as a reply, which opens the chat again, so your team or your AI agent can take it from there.

Is a booking confirmation a utility message?

Yes, when it’s about the customer’s own booking: the day, the time, a change or a cancellation. Meta treats it as marketing if it adds an offer or invites them to book something else.
