Tip: One clear offer works better than a list of five.

How to use it in VartaAPI

  1. Open Templates and press Browse the library.
  2. Find “Weekend special” and press Use this. The wording and examples fill the form.
  3. Change anything you like (add your business name, a header with an image or document, or buttons), then submit it to Meta for approval.
  4. Once Meta approves it, send it from a campaign, a chatbot flow, the inbox or your own software through the API.

The template builder and the library are on every plan, and in the 7-day free trial. Owners and admins of an account can submit templates.

Why it is written this way

Meta reviews every template before it can be sent. This one never starts or ends with a blank, keeps real words between blanks, gives an example for each blank, and sits in the category that matches what it says (marketing, because it promotes something). Those are the common reasons templates are turned down. Meta still decides; if it refuses, VartaAPI shows the reason in plain words.

Marketing templates should go only to people who agreed to hear from you. Read the opt-in guide before you send one.

What it costs to send

Meta charges per delivered template message and bills you directly. In India a marketing message costs ₹0.8631 before GST. VartaAPI adds nothing per message; see WhatsApp API pricing in India.
