Message templates & OTP: questions
Why do I need templates?
WhatsApp lets businesses send free-form messages only within 24 hours of the customer’s last message. Outside that window, or to start a conversation, you must use an approved template.
How long does approval take?
Meta decides. Many templates are reviewed quickly, but it can take longer. The status updates in Upgrow Connect automatically.
