When to send

The right moment
for each one.

  • When an invoice is ready, with the amount.
  • A few days before a payment is due.
  • Once a payment is late, and once more if it stays late.
  • When a payment arrives, as a receipt.
Getting it approved

What Meta’s
reviewer looks for.

  • Never ask for full card numbers, bank account numbers or ID numbers in a message: WhatsApp’s rules don’t allow it. Link to your own secure payment page instead.
  • Give the amount and the invoice number, so the message is clearly about one payment.
  • Keep the tone friendly: the customer may already have paid, so say what to do if they have.

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
Can I ask customers for their card details on WhatsApp?

No. WhatsApp’s rules don’t allow asking people to share full card numbers, bank account numbers, ID numbers or other sensitive details in a message. Send a link to your own secure payment page instead.

Is a payment reminder a utility message?

Yes, when it’s about a payment the customer owes or has made, with the amount or invoice. A message that pushes a new purchase is marketing.

What if the customer has already paid?

Say what to do in the message itself, as these templates do, and add a quick reply such as “I’ve already paid”: a tap opens the chat, so your team can check.

Every conversation has potential.
